[English]

With a crystal glass, give me some ice and a Whiskey Cosmo

If your girl ditched you for me, it's 'cause I'm good-looking

Don't make a fuss, you know we're deep in the game

Lots of cash, lots of money

And we're doing whatever we want

I did a line in each nostril, feeling hyped up

I'm just smoking the damn weed, then the meth

It's been three days since I've slept

And three buddies who still haven't left

And three girls who are arriving, back to back

Looking sharp and the blade is extra sharp

I'm not messing around, it's just my job

The marijuana smoke

Looking good in Dolce & Gabbana

Good thing Chuyin's doing great and has everything he needs

And the crazy ones never die

Fuerza Regida

Something else! (Mhm)

...

And your mom tells you: "What are you doing with that damn junkie?"

You answer her: "Mommy, this cholo is really built"

And sometimes weed and sometimes meth and the washed coke

And sometimes I'm up and sometimes I'm down

And sometimes nothing

Looking sharp and the blade is extra sharp

I'm not messing around, it's just my job

The marijuana smoke

Looking good in Dolce & Gabbana

Good thing Chuyin's doing great and has everything he needs

...

[Spanish]

Con un cristal, échame un hielo y un Whisky Cosmo

Si tu morrita me capeó, es porque estoy precioso

No la hagan de pedo, si saben que andamos bien metido al ruedo

Un chingo de paca', un chingo de dinero

Y andamos como queremos

Me eché un perico en cada fosa, bien motorolo

Ando fume y fume la pinche mota, después el foco

Ya van tres días que ando bien amanecido

Y tres compadres que todavía no se han ido

Y tres morritas que van llegando, están al hilo

Biеn chaka y bien filosa la navaja

No le juego al vеrga, solamente es mi deber

El humo de la marihuana

Bien guapo de Dolce & Gabbana

Lo bueno que el Chuyin anda chilo y no le falta nada

Y los locos nunca mueren

Fuer-za Regida

¡Otro pedo! (Mhm)

Y tu mamá te dice: "¿Qué haces con ese pinche tecato?"

Tú le contestas: "Mami, este cholo está pero bien cuajado"

Y a veces mota y a veces foco y la lavada

Y a veces subo y a veces bajo

Y a veces nada

Bien chaka y bien filosa la navaja

No le juego al verga, solamente es mi deber

El humo de la marihuana

Bien guapo de Dolce & Gabbana

Lo bueno que el Chuyin anda chilo y no le falta nada

Key Grammar Structures

• Con un cristal, **échame** un hielo y un Whisky Cosmo

  ➔ Imperative + Clitic pronoun attached

  ➔ The word "échame" combines the imperative form "echa" (from the verb 'echar', meaning 'to pour' or 'to throw') with the direct object pronoun "me" ('me'). In affirmative imperatives, object pronouns are attached directly to the verb, indicating 'pour me' or 'serve me'.

• **Si tu morrita me capeó**, es porque estoy precioso

  ➔ Real Conditional ('Si' clause) + Direct object pronoun with colloquial verb

  ➔ This is a real conditional sentence ('If... then...'). The "si" clause uses the preterite tense ("capeó"), indicating a past action. "me capeó" uses the direct object pronoun "me" (me) with the colloquial verb 'capear' (to ignore, to disregard someone).

• **No la hagan de pedo**, si saben que andamos bien metido al ruedo

  ➔ Negative imperative + Idiomatic expression with pronoun

  ➔ "No la hagan de pedo" is a colloquial negative imperative. "No hagan" is the 'ustedes' (plural you) negative imperative of 'hacer' (to make/do). "La" refers to 'pedo' (trouble/fuss), and 'hacer de pedo' is an idiomatic expression meaning 'to make a fuss' or 'to cause trouble'.

• **Me eché** un perico en cada fosa, bien motorolo

  ➔ Reflexive verb 'echarse' (colloquial usage)

  ➔ "Me eché" uses the reflexive verb 'echarse' in the preterite tense. In this context, 'echarse (algo)' colloquially means 'to consume' or 'to take' something quickly or casually, often referring to drugs or a drink.

• **Ando fume y fume** la pinche mota, después el foco

  ➔ Idiomatic construction 'andar + verb repetition'

  ➔ "Ando fume y fume" is an informal idiomatic construction. 'Andar' (to be/to go around) followed by a verb repeated twice (often in a specific informal form derived from the infinitive) indicates a continuous, repetitive, or obsessive action. Here, it means 'I'm constantly smoking' or 'I keep on smoking'.

• **Ya van tres días que** ando bien amanecido

  ➔ Expression of duration with 'ir'

  ➔ "Ya van tres días que..." is a common way to express duration in Spanish. It literally translates to 'already go three days that...' but means 'It's already been three days since/that...' or 'Three days have already passed since/that...'.

• **Lo bueno que** el Chuyin anda chilo y no **le falta nada**

  ➔ 'Lo + adjective + que' construction + 'faltar' with indirect object and double negative

  ➔ "Lo bueno que" is a common construction meaning 'The good thing is that...' or 'Fortunately...'. "No le falta nada" uses the verb 'faltar' (to be lacking/missing). "Le" is an indirect object pronoun (to him/her/it), and "nada" creates a double negative with "no," emphasizing 'nothing is missing' or 'he lacks nothing'.

• Mami, este cholo **está pero bien cuajado**

  ➔ 'Estar' + Intensifier 'pero bien'

  ➔ "Está pero bien cuajado" uses the verb 'estar' (to be, for temporary states) followed by "pero bien" as an intensifier. "Pero bien" colloquially means 'really', 'very', or 'extremely', amplifying the adjective 'cuajado' (well-built, muscular).

• Y **a veces subo y a veces bajo**

  ➔ Repetition of adverbial phrase 'a veces' for alternation

  ➔ The repetition of "a veces" ('sometimes') followed by contrasting actions ("subo" - I go up, "bajo" - I go down) emphasizes a back-and-forth, fluctuating, or alternating pattern of behavior or state.
