[English]

Yeah man, it's reggae!

This is a cypher six six six!

The time for crying out of fear of failure is over

now it's time to live in harmony and peace

passion and good have come together

and the wind that carries us to the sea

now it's time to laugh in unity

and we gather for you, so you can take flight

so I can see you smile when you arrive, grandpa

that life is hard when living in fear

healing your wounds, you move away from the ground

put joy into this melody

let sorrow wither from your mind

they are just lyrical symphonies of merchandise

surrounded by the best people

I wear a Bob Marley flag as a cape

I'll never stop being a child at every stage

I wear a jacket and a lion on my lapel

and if we're talking about reggae, I've got the cream of the crop here

they planted the egg, and now I bring the potatoes

the stick and the piñata

I add waterfalls to the river

we go through ungrateful times but it doesn't cheapen us

we keep bailing water now that there are no more rats

let reggae stay afloat, come on, it's not going to sink

grab an oar, don't fall asleep

This one's for my brothers, I don't even do it for myself anymore

for all those tattooed with "No fear of living"

we learned to be pirates

I have a tin roof in my house

and a heart of rusted tin, but it beats for you

finely filtered pollen from the plant

a sailor came here by boat

we love you

oh oh oh oh oh In the morning sun

Power of the reggaeman, no magicians

Against the submission of television

against their way of control and oppression

reggae as a weapon for this liberation

from one generation to a good direction

and I don't care if it bothers them

we have the answer

cannabis energy like sunlight

and on the third or the sixth

and push away what's left

you don't need to wait to be happy

and now I ask you, do you want another world?

because yours is messed up, they've filled it with garbage and loneliness

or would it be better to promote a little love and more culture

to change this society a bit

I'll say it again, even if they won't listen

you can achieve whatever you want to dream

the weight of the world sometimes crushes me

this works by living your life

I play with words that never end

again and again, replaying the game

I always tend to be more than they imagine

no one will stop this song

from healing your soul and your heart

that's why it always sounds like fantasy

and the melody shows

hedonistic flow, beat after beat

my life is a freestyle

it's obvious

and not because I wear expensive clothes or amethysts

but because I explode with a flow that gets stuck in me

give me space, always strong like action

for all the times I distance myself

but you know how palace movies go

Man one Reggae Cypher, slow

infection

always positive vibes when I sing

feel the flame as it's rising

a mission of hearts is the pact

the energy is lit with the crew

and feel it, feel it, feel it

we bring good music, start listening

put it on, put it on, put it on

Pure and his lions, this isn't going to stop

so you can enjoy it, dance until midnight

get rid of the bad stuff, the real ones don't show off

we're here, the brothers, playing Black Roses

bad vibes, I hung a "closed" sign on them

we're up to date, new melody

we're always chilling, chilling in harmony

tune in, flow with mine

turn up the volume, leave the monotony

we love you

oh oh oh oh oh In the morning sun

Power of the reggaeman, no magicians

[Spanish]

Ya ma ne reggae!

This is a cypher six six six!

Bim ya se acabó el llorar con miedo a fracasar

ahora toca vivir en son y paz

se juntaron la pasión el bien

y el viento que lleva hacia el mar

ahora toca reír en unidad

y nos reunimos para ti, para que eches el vuelo

pa verte sonreír cuando llegues abuelo

que dura hasta la vida viviendo con miedo

curándote la herida te alejas del suelo

pon alegría con esta melodía

que la pena marchite de la mente

tan solo son sinfonías líricas de mercancía

rodeado de la mejor gente

llevo una bandera de Bob Marley como capa

nunca dejaré de ser un niño en cada etapa

llevo una chaqueta y un león en la solapa

y si hablamos de reggae tengo aquí a la flor y nata

ellos han plantado el huevo y ahora traigo las patatas

el palo y la piñata

al río le añado las cataratas

pasamos épocas ingratas pero no abarata

seguimos achicando el agua ahora que ya no hay ratas

el reggae siga a flote vamos no se va hundir

pilla un remo no te vayas a dormir

Esta va por mis hermanos ya ni lo hago por mí

por todos los tatuados con "Sin miedo a vivir"

aprendimos a ser pirata

yo tengo en mi casa un tejado de chapa

y un corazón de oxidada hojalata, pero late por ti

polen filtradito de la mata

marinero vino en barco hasta aquí

te queremos

oh oh oh oh oh Inna morning sun

Power of the reggaeman no Magicians

En contra de la sumisión de la televisión

en contra de su forma de control y la opresión

el reggae como arma para esta liberación

de una generación hacia una buena dirección

y me da igual si le molesta

tenemos la respuesta

energía canábica como luz solar

y a la tercera o a la sexta

y aleja lo que resta

para ser feliz no hace falta esperar

y ahora yo pregunto si tú quieres otro mundo

porque el tuyo está jodido lo han llenado de basura y soledad

o será mejor promover un poco de amor y más cultura

para cambiar un poquito esta sociedad

Vuelvo a decirlo aunque no van a escuchar

puedes conseguir lo que tú quieras soñar

el peso del mundo a veces me derrumba

esto funciona con pasatú vida

juego con palabras que nunca terminan

una y otra vez replicando la partida

siempre suelo ser más de lo que se imaginan

nadie va a evitar que esta canción

sane tu alma y tu corazón

por eso siempre suena fantasía

y la melodía muestra

flow hedonista, beat tras pista

my life is a freestyle

salta a la vista

y no porque lleve ropa cara ni amatistas

sino porque exploto con un flow que se me enquista

dame espacio, siempre fuerte como Action

por todas las veces que yo mismo me distancio

pero sabes como van las movies de palacio

Hombre one Reggae Cypher despacio

inection

siempre la vibra positiva cuando canto

siente la llama como ya se está elevando

una misión de corazones es el pacto

la energía está prendida con el comando

y siéntela, siéntela, siéntela

traemos buena música ponte a escuchar

póntela, póntela, póntela

el Pure y sus leones esto no va a parar

pa que lo goces, baila hasta las doce

afuera los males, los reales no traen poses

estamos los brothers, sonando Black Roses

malas vibraciones, le colgué el cartel de closed

seguimos al día, nueva melodía

siempre estamos chilling, chilling en armonía

entra en sintonía, fluye con la mía

súbele el volumen deja la monotonía

te queremos

oh oh oh oh oh Inna morning sun

Power of the reggaeman no Magicians

• ahora toca vivir en son y paz

  ➔ Impersonal 'tocar' + infinitive ('vivir')

  ➔ The impersonal construction 'toca + infinitive' expresses obligation or what is appropriate or time to do. Here, it means 'it's time to live in harmony and peace'.

• se juntaron la pasión el bien y el viento que lleva hacia el mar

  ➔ Reflexive verb 'juntarse' + plural subject

  ➔ The reflexive verb 'juntarse' (to get together, to join) is used with a plural subject ('la pasión, el bien y el viento'). The 'se' indicates that the subjects are acting upon each other or coming together.

• pa verte sonreír cuando llegues abuelo

  ➔ Contraction 'pa' for 'para' + infinitive clause ('verte sonreír')

  ➔ 'Pa' is a colloquial contraction of 'para' (for). 'Verte sonreír' is an infinitive clause where 'verte' (to see you) leads to the infinitive 'sonreír' (to smile), meaning 'to see you smile'.

• que la pena marchite de la mente

  ➔ Subjunctive mood after 'que' introducing a subordinate clause (implied command/wish)

  ➔ The 'que' here introduces a subordinate clause expressing a wish or a desired outcome. The verb 'marchite' (from 'marchitar' - to wither) is in the subjunctive mood, which is used to express emotions, doubts, or desired actions.

• rodeado de la mejor gente

  ➔ Past participle used as an adjective ('rodeado')

  ➔ 'Rodeado' is the past participle of 'rodear' (to surround). Here, it functions as an adjective modifying an implied subject (e.g., 'I am surrounded by the best people').

• el palo y la piñata

  ➔ Definite articles ('el', 'la') with singular nouns

• En contra de la sumisión de la televisión

  ➔ Prepositional phrase 'en contra de' + definite article + noun

  ➔ 'En contra de' means 'against'. The sentence expresses opposition to 'la sumisión' (the submission) of television, with 'la' being the definite article before the noun 'sumisión'.

• y aleja lo que resta

  ➔ Imperative 'aleja' + relative pronoun 'lo que'

  ➔ The imperative 'aleja' (from 'alejar' - to move away, to push away) is a command. 'Lo que' is a relative pronoun that means 'that which' or 'what'. So, the phrase means 'and push away what remains'.
