DtMF Lyrics by Bad Bunny (with English Translation)
[Intro]
Eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh
[Verso 1]
Otro sunset bonito que veo en San Juan
Disfrutando de todas esas cosas que extrañan los que se van
Disfrutando de noche' de esas que ya no se dan
Que ya no se dan
Pero queriendo volver a la última vez
Que a los ojos te miré
Y contarte las cosas que no te conté (Te parece' a mi crush, jaja)
Y tirarte la' foto' que no te tiré (Acho, jura'o te ves bien linda, déjame tirarte una foto)
Ey, tengo el pecho pela'o, me dio una matá'
El corazón dándome patá'
Dime, baby, ¿dónde tú está'?
Pa' llegarle con RoRo, Julito, Krystal
Roy, Edgar, Seba, Óscar, Darnell y Big Jay, tocando batá
Hoy la calle la dejamo' 'esbaratá
Y sería cabrón que tú me toque' el güiro
Yo veo tu nombre y me salen suspiro'
No sé si son petardo' o si son tiro'
Mi blanquita, perico, mi kilo
Yo estoy en PR, tranquilo, pero
[Estribillo]
Debí tirar más fotos de cuando te tuve
Debí darte más beso' y abrazo' las vece' que pude
Ey, ojalá que los mío' nunca se muden
Y si hoy me emborracho, pues que me ayuden
Debí tirar más foto' de cuando te tuve
Debí darte más beso' y abrazo' las veces que pude
Ojalá que los mío' nunca se muden
Y si hoy me emborracho, pues que me ayuden
[Verso 2]
Ey, hoy voy a estar con abuelo to'l día, jugando dominó
Si me pregunta si aún pienso en ti, yo le digo que no
Que mi estadía cerquita de ti ya se terminó
Ya se terminó, ey
Que prendan la' máquina', voy pa' Santurce
Aquí todavía se da caña
Chequéate las babie', diablo, mami, qué dulce
Hoy yo quiero beber, beber, beber
Y hablar mierda hasta que me expulsen
'Toy bien loco ('Toy bien loco), 'toy bien loco ('Toy bien loco)
Cabrón, guía tú, que hasta caminando yo estoy que choco
'Toy bien loco ('Toy bien loco), 'toy bien loco ('Toy bien loco)
Vamo' a disfrutar, que nunca se sabe si nos queda poco
Debí tirar más f—
[Interludio]
Gente, lo' quiero con cojone', los amo
Gracias por estar aquí, de verdad
Para mí e' bien importante que estén aquí
Cada uno de ustede' significa mucho para mí
Así que, vamo' pa' la foto, vengan pa'cá
Métase to'l mundo, to'l corillo, vamo'
Zumba
[Verso 3]
Ya Bernie tiene el nene y Jan la nena'
Ya no estamo' pa' la movie' y las cadena'
'Tamos pa' las cosa' que valgan la pena
Ey, pa'l perreo, la salsa, la bomba y la plena
Chequéate la mía cómo es que suena
[Outro]
Debí tirar más fotos de cuando te tuve
Debí darte más besos y abrazo' las veces que pude
Ojalá que los mío' nunca se muden
Y que tú me envíe' más nude'
Y si hoy me emborracho, que Beno me ayude
DtMF English Version Lyrics
[Intro]
Eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh
[Verse 1]
Another beautiful sunset I see in San Juan
Enjoying everything that the departed are missing out on
Enjoying nights like those that don't come often
That don't come often
But wanting to go back to the last time
That I looked into your eyes
And to tell you the things I didn't get to tell you (You look like my crush, haha)
And to take the pictures I didn't get to take
(Damn, I swear you look so pretty, let me take a picturе of you)
Ayy, my chest feels empty, I got hit hard
My heart is pounding
Tеll me, baby, where are you?
I can meet you there with RoRo, Julito, Krystal
Roy, Edgar, Seba, Óscar, Darnell, and Big Jay, playing batá
Today, we'll leave the streets in chaos
And it'd be amazing if you play the güiro for me
I see your name and it makes me sigh
I don't know if it's fireworks or gunshots
My whitey, my cocaine, my kilo
I'm in PR chilling, but
[Chorus]
I should've taken more pictures when I had you
I should've given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
Ayy, I hope my people never move away
And if I get drunk today, I hope they help me out
I should've taken more pictures when I had you
I should've given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
I hope my people never move away
And if I get drunk today, I hope they help me out
[Verse 2]
Hey, today I'll be with Grandpa all day, playing dominoes
If he asks if I still think about you, I'll say no
That my time being close to you is over now
It's over now
Ayy, fire up the machines, I'm going to Santurce
Here, they still drink rum
Check out the girls, damn, mami, how sweet
Today I want to drink, drink, drink
And talk nonsense until I get kicked out
I'm so drunk (I'm so drunk), I'm so drunk (I'm so drunk)
Man, you drive, because even if I'm walking I'm about to crash
I'm so drunk (I'm so drunk), I'm so drunk (I'm so drunk)
Let's enjoy it because you never know how much time we've got left
I should've taken more—
[Interlude]
Guys, I love you so much, I really do
Thank you for being here, truly
It's very important to me that you're here
Each one of you means so much to me
So, let's take the picture, come here
Everyone, get in, the whole crew, let's go
Let's do it
[Verse 3]
Now Bernie has a baby, and Jan has a girl
We're no longer about the flashy stuff and chains
We're here for the things that are truly worth it
Hey, for reggaeton, salsa, bomba, and plena
Check out how mine sounds
[Outro]
I should've taken more pictures when I had you
I should've given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
I hope my people never move away
And that you send me more nudes
And if I get drunk today, may Beno help me
About the Song: DtMF by Bad Bunny
DtMF stands for “Debí Tirar Más Fotos”, which translates to “I should have taken more photos”. This is the title track for Bad Bunny’s album Debí Tirar Más Fotos. DtMF tells Bad Bunny’s nostalgia and regrets of not taking more photos for memories, especially for his departed loved one.
Verse 1
While the singer is appreciating all the good things he’s experiencing (like the beautiful sunset), he can’t help but miss his departed loved one who will never experience these things with him. He also tells about the pain of missing his loved one and his regrets of not taking more pictures with them for memories. He longs for them and wishes that they were still here.
Verse 2
The singer is trying to move on from his departed loved one. He’s accepted that they are gone and they will never be together again. He says that he will tell his grandfather that he no longer misses his loved one (although, he actually does). He also goes into drinking as a way to forget and enjoy his life with no regrets.
Verse 3
He’s recounting about how his and his living loved ones’ lives are now and how they are living it to the fullest. His brother now has a kid while his friend-turned-manager is now in a relationship. The singer has also achieved success in music.
Chorus and Outro
The chorus centers on the singer’s regret of not taking more photos when their loved one was still around. He also regrets not doing more things to show his love for them. Since he can’t do anything about it now, he resolves to drinking and hopes that his friends will be there for him when he gets drunk.
Interlude
The singer is now soaking up every moment he gets with his living loved ones and wants to take more pictures with them so he wouldn’t have regrets again in the future.
