Lyrics:

[Español]

[English]

Yo sé que voy a morirme

I know I'm going to die

por eso bien loco Vivo

that's why I live life to the fullest

le rezo a mi Diosito

I pray to my God

que me guíe por buen camino

to guide me on the right path

Me gusta la lavada

I like the clean money

y me encanta hablar contigo

and I love talking with you

y toda la Plebada ya saben que yo ando al tiro

and all my crew already knows I'm on point

Yo sé que voy a morirme

I know I'm going to die

por eso bien loco Vivo

that's why I live life to the fullest

le rezo a mi Diosito

I pray to my God

que me guíe por buen camino

to guide me on the right path

Me gusta la lavada

I like the clean money

y me encanta hablar contigo

and I love talking with you

y toda la Plebada ya saben que yo ando al tiro

and all my crew already knows I'm on point

Me echo un suspiro

I take a breath

de todo me cuido

I'm careful with everything

que tienen conmigo

what do they have against me

si nada les pido

if I ask nothing of them

me trepo a la suburban

I hop in the Suburban

le marco a dos culitos de volada caigo

I call two babes, I'll be there in a flash

parece que va haber Trío

it looks like there's going to be a trio

las morras bien calientes

the girls are really hot

y yo aquí voy tendido

and I'm here ready for action

No se me desesperen

Don't get impatient

en cuatro las pongo en cinco

I'll have them ready in a flash

don peri, tirada, la tussi dorada

perico, a line, the golden tusi

tequila, lavada, quijada trabada

tequila, the rush, locked jaw

qué buena está la ondeada

what a great vibe this is

esta frecuencia me mama

this frequency gets me so high

dos culos que me esperan en la cama

two women waiting for me in bed

Doble vaso de Lynn

Double cup of lean

Ando mal pero visto clean

I feel bad but I look clean

Y unas damas bien machín

And some really strong ladies

pura verificada las que se montan aquí

only verified ones ride with me

Así me gusta andar con tenis Jordan

This is how I like to walk around with Jordan sneakers

Pa tapa de la miraba una gorrita Chrome Heart

To cover my gaze, a Chrome Hearts cap

Paseando en el Downtown

Cruising downtown

por ahí me han de wachar

they'll probably spot me there

Y pa quitarme el sueño me pongo uno de wash

And to shake off sleep, I take a hit of something strong

Me echo un suspiro

I take a breath

de todo me cuido

I'm careful with everything

que tienen conmigo lo

what do they have against me

si nada les pido

if I ask nothing of them

me trepo a la suburban

I hop in the Suburban

le marco a dos culitos de volada caigo

I call two babes, I'll be there in a flash

parece que va haber Trío

it looks like there's going to be a trio

las morras bien calientes y yo aquí voy tendido

the girls are really hot and I'm here ready for action

No se me desesperen

Don't get impatient

en cuatro las pongo en cinco

I'll have them ready in a flash

don peri, tirada, la tussi dorada

perico, a line, the golden tusi

tequila, lavada, quijada trabada

tequila, the rush, locked jaw

qué buena está la ondeada

what a great vibe this is

esta frecuencia me mama

this frequency gets me so high

dos culos que me esperan en la cama

two women waiting for me in bed

Doble vaso de Lynn

Double cup of lean

Ando mal pero visto clean

I feel bad but I look clean

Y unas damas bien macín

And some really strong ladies

pura verificada las que se montan aquí

only verified ones ride with me

Grammar:

• Yo sé que voy a morirme

  ➔ Periphrastic Future (ir a + infinitive) & Reflexive Verb

  ➔ The phrase "voy a morirme" (I am going to die) uses the periphrastic future, formed with a conjugated form of "ir" (to go) + "a" + an infinitive. "Morirme" is a reflexive verb, indicating the subject performs the action on themselves.

• que me guíe por buen camino

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood (Expression of Desire/Request)

  ➔ The verb "guíe" (guide) is in the present subjunctive, used here to express a wish or request after a verb of praying/asking (implied by 'rezo a mi Diosito que...').

• Me gusta la lavada y me encanta hablar contigo

  ➔ Verbs like 'Gustar' and 'Encantar' (Indirect Object Pronoun, Inverted Subject)

  ➔ Verbs like "gustar" (to like) and "encantar" (to love/delight) behave differently from English verbs. The 'thing' that is liked or loved (la lavada, hablar contigo) is the grammatical subject, and the 'person' who likes/loves is the indirect object, represented by a pronoun like "me" (to me).

• Me echo un suspiro

  ➔ Pronominal Verb (Echarse - Idiomatic Use)

  ➔ The verb "echarse" is a pronominal verb here, where the reflexive pronoun "me" changes the meaning of "echar" (to throw) to "to let out" or "to take." "Me echo un suspiro" means 'I let out a sigh' or 'I sigh.'

• le marco a dos culitos

  ➔ Redundant Indirect Object Pronoun (Dative of Interest)

  ➔ In Spanish, it's very common to use an indirect object pronoun (like "le") even when the indirect object noun phrase ("a dos culitos") is explicitly stated. This redundancy can add emphasis or simply be a natural feature of spoken Spanish.

• parece que va haber Trío

  ➔ Impersonal 'Haber' in Future Tense (va a haber)

  ➔ The phrase "va a haber" (there will be) is the future form of the impersonal verb "haber" (there is/are). It indicates existence in the future, similar to 'there will be' in English.

• Ando mal pero visto clean

  ➔ Verb 'Andar' + Adjective/Past Participle (Expressing State/Condition)

  ➔ "Andar" is often used to describe a temporary or ongoing state or condition, similar to "estar," but often implying a more active or less stable situation. Here, "ando mal" means 'I am feeling bad' or 'I'm doing badly,' and "visto clean" means 'dressed cleanly.'

• No se me desesperen

  ➔ Negative Imperative with Multiple Object Pronouns (Reflexive + Dative of Interest)

  ➔ This is a negative command directed at 'ustedes' (you all). "Desesperarse" is a reflexive verb, so "se" is required. The additional "me" is a dative of interest, indicating that the action (or lack thereof) affects the speaker's interest or well-being ('Don't get desperate on me').

• pura verificada las que se montan aquí

  ➔ Relative Pronoun (las que) and Past Participle as Adjective

  ➔ "Las que" (those who/the ones who) is a common way to refer to a group of people previously mentioned or implied (in this case, "damas"). "Verificada" is a past participle acting as an adjective, describing the quality of these women as 'verified' or 'vetted'.

• Pa quitarme el sueño

  ➔ Preposition 'Para' + Infinitive (Expressing Purpose)

  ➔ "Pa" is a colloquial shortening of "para." "Para" followed by an infinitive verb phrase is used to express the purpose or aim of an action, meaning 'in order to' or 'to'. "Quitarme el sueño" means 'to take away my sleepiness'.
