Following its release, Ramos previewed the song on social media and described it as “my story, my music.” He also dedicated the track as an open letter to his former club, touching on both triumphs and heartache.

🤍 Sergio Ramos' new song "Cibeles":
There are things I didn't tell you
That still hurt
I never wanted to leave
You asked me to fly,
You asked me to fly,
You asked meI would kill for you,
I loved you, and I defended you
But it wasn't in me
You asked me to fly
I dressed in… pic.twitter.com/FKeZiG4oqA— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) September 1, 2025
Cibeles lyrics in English
Given below is the English translation of ‘Cibeles’:
There are things I never told you
That still hurt me
I never wanted to leave
You asked me to fly
Whoa oh oh
You asked me to fly
Mmm
You asked me
I would have died for you
I loved you and I defended you
But it wasn’t up to me
You asked me to fly
I dressed in my best
I gave you blood and sweat
I enjoyed you and I suffered you
I hope things go well for you
Even though without you I feel bad
Good thing I walked away
Because you didn’t treat me the same
You loved me and I loved you
But someone always gives more
It was all like I dreamed
Until it was time to wake up
I gave you crowns
You gave me wings
I didn’t know they were only to push me away
And I look at you now
You’re just as beautiful
Life teaches you no one is indispensable
A match lasts 90
And I gave you 90 and three more on top
I never got tired of trying
This story was a legend
I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees
I’ll give my heart, even if it comes back to me broken
I hope things go well for you
Even though without you I feel bad
Good thing I walked away
Because you didn’t treat me the same
You loved me and I loved you
But someone always gives more
It was all like I dreamed
Until it was time to wake up
You forgot about me
You pushed me aside
Without being able to decide
That’s what hurts the most
And even though it was like that
I’d gladly come back
Once and up to a thousand times
You know it, Cibeles
