[English]
Grah, grah, eh-eh, brr, brr, eh-eh
L.A MANO, nothing to fear, you haters
You're going to faint (eh-eh)
I know some ruthless guys who can come to your place for three stacks
I connect M.U.S.T.O, (eh-eh) when I'm at the spot (gang, gang)
Since things are picking up, I only get calls on my phone
I only get calls on my phone
Yo, we're the real ones
Not like them, we don't wait for rap to escape the struggle
OPPS, we washed them
If it's not to like, why do you look?
We are Business Men
You're in debt, so you're struggling bad
We are Business Men
You're in debt, so you're struggling bad
We take back the gold, gloved, equipped, that's how we operate
You've been there since the beginning, my man, I remember
You'll get your share of the pie
R.A.T, we never lose, La M in the stash, I've made my mark
I was chaining up small jobs to end up rich
Or end up like the old-timer who's wasting away at the bar
Opps, I'm going to dirty my kicks again
Opi 13, stop puffing out your chest
I'm high, but I light another joint
I already told you I like when the plan is perfect
I only send them Cali, right?
Don't say you're my guy, bro, we don't know each other
It smells like trouble, watch out and let's go
I cash a bill, I'm off to Spain
I want to see her back, I'm not her best friend
And my baby doesn't like unreliable guys
Oops, I took them off but she put them back on
No matter the position, her booty shakes
Need Ramos's salary, and they want to know how much we collect
Crimes we commit, so sins we accumulate
The foamy yellow tied up in the mass
We know you're not involved, we know you haven't sold any kilos, man
On the street, there are cops watching us
I recount a bill in the matte grey car
Be fair, don't try to screw us over, the last one ended up in pieces
Sooner or later the student will surpass the master
You're fake, I felt it from ten miles away
You're going to faint
I know some ruthless guys who can come to your place for three stacks
I connect M.U.S.T.O, when I'm at the spot
Since things are picking up, I only get calls on my phone
Yo, we're the real ones
Not like them, we don't wait for rap to escape the struggle
OPPS, we washed them
If it's not to like, why do you look?
We are Business Men
You're in debt, so you're struggling bad
We are Business Men
You're in debt, so you're struggling bad
We are Business Men (we are Business Men)
So you're struggling bad (grah, so you're struggling bad)
We are Business Men (we are Business Men)
So you're struggling bad (grah, so you're struggling bad)
So you're struggling bad
Mom, what's my destiny

Key Grammar Structures

  • T'es là d'puis l'début, négro j'm'en rappelle

    ➔ Contraction of 'tu es' (you are) and 'depuis le début' (since the beginning). Use of informal contractions like 'd'puis' and 'j'men' reflects spoken slang.

    ➔ 'T'es' = 'tu es'; contraction for informal speech.

  • On est des Business Man

    ➔ Use of 'On est' (we are) instead of 'nous sommes' to convey informal or colloquial speech. 'Des' functions as the indefinite article 'a' or 'an' before a plural noun.

    ➔ 'On est' = 'nous sommes'; informal way to say 'we are'.

  • Donc tu nehess mal

    ➔ Use of 'ne... pas' negation structure in French, with 'ne' often dropped in informal speech. 'Nehess' is slang for 'n'hésite' (not hesitate).

    ➔ 'Ne... pas' = 'not' in French negation; 'Nehess' is slang for 'n'hésite' meaning 'hesitate', but used colloquially as 'don't hesitate'.

  • Mom, what's my destiny

    ➔ Use of interrogative sentence structure with 'what's' as a contraction of 'what is' to ask about destiny.

    ➔ 'What's' = 'what is', contracted form used in questions.
