Lyrics & Translation
I smashed you, then erased the data
But today I remembered I like how you treat me
If I see you again, you won't escape me (you won't escape me)
I'm running with luck, I know I'll see you again
You fight and laugh, who understands you? (who understands you?)
You fucked a baller, tell them how it feels
That a single night they'll remember forever (grra-grra, bum, bum, bum)
Grra-grra, bum, bum in the face for the bitches, the bad bitches (yeh)
Don't look at me like that, what do you want?, for me to kiss you? (what do you want?)
They say we're bad, that's just a cliché (what's up?)
I'm a sweetheart to undress you, then pitch
Pitcher, I'm never gonna fail an outfit check (nah, nah)
Cooking in the kitchen, I made myself moving chicken
Little, in the jungle Doctor Dolittle
I'm with drums and the band like the Beatles (brr)
If you're tripping, we break him without thinking twice
I empty yours and my stash grows (let's go, baby)
I don't believe in names or any kiss-ass (in any)
I have money and that buys power (yeh)
If you want war, then name me (grra-grra, bum, bum)
I don't shoot through networks, I go head-on, don't hide (pow, yeh)
And I don't go in a Honda
I go in the BM to hunt them with style with the crocodile case
You've never been a killer (killer)
That movie isn't yours, don't live it (live it)
I shoot, I'm not going to waste saliva (waste saliva)
If I take their drip, they won't ride
Me with the AK, Clarent with the R
If you want something, it's packed to you here in PR
We're in Medellin, we look like we're from the series
From the narcos on TV
A-active with the rock band, in the Urus in Corsa mode (oh, oh)
Not in Miami, asshole, I have it in Carola (ey)
Sub-Zero if they talk shit, it's mortal, there won't be combat (ey)
Control your cats, I already broke two of them (ah, ah)
You don't have balls, I have the balls as medicinal
Under the Lambo, inside Denny's I give you ninety with the Rodman (ey)
I cross them in threes like the note
You guys are four cents and don't make a dollar
Broke case, no call, four sticks for a truck
They all leave if I see them and they don't send me (eh-eh-eh)
You say that nobody here rides
If you see me, don't act up like the day of Blessd's concert
Asshole, you know I make them dance Macarena
Don't brag about women, you only smash girls
You say you're going to kill me, asshole, but you're not counting
That I caught you and asked you what you had said, and you shat yourself (yeah)
You-you've never been a killer
Th-that movie isn't yours, don't live it
I-I shoot, I'm not going to waste saliva
If I take their drip, they won't ride
You've never been a killer (let's go, uooh)
That movie isn't yours, don't live it (ah)
I shoot, I'm not going to waste saliva (uh)
If I take their Percs, they won't ride (tell me what they're going to do)
My-Mynor with the AK, me with the R
If you want something, it's packed to you here in PR
We're in Medellin, we look like we're from the series
From the narcos on TV
Yeah (grra-grra, bum, yeh)
The ballers of the city, tell me Turbo (yeh, yeh)
The street is ours
From the ballers, the ballers of the Metro, of the city (you heard?)
Jonniel (if they're not ballers, get out of the way, yeh, ah)
Che Guevara is in Caparra, you won't escape if he catches you
Tell me Bassyy (grra-grra, bum)

Key Grammar Structures
-
En el hotel en bata, tú ere' amiga, no mi gata
➔ Use of 'ere'' (eres) - Informal contraction and verb conjugation
➔ The line uses a very informal contraction "ere'" for "eres", which is the second-person singular present tense of the verb "ser". This is a colloquial feature, emphasizing the casual and often ungrammatical nature of slang.
-
Si te vuelvo a ver, no te me escapa'
➔ Use of reflexive pronoun "me" with "escapa"
➔ The phrase includes the reflexive pronoun "me" before "escapa" making it 'no te *me* escapas'. This construction emphasizes the speaker's determination and ensures that the action (escaping) directly affects the speaker’s will. It's more emphatic than just "no te escapas".
-
Tú pelea' y ríe', ¿quién te entiende?
➔ Informal contraction of 'pelea' and 'ríe'
➔ The use of "pelea'" and "ríe'" instead of "peleas" and "ríes" is a colloquial contraction dropping the final 's'. It indicates a casual register.
-
Que una sola noche la recordará' por siempre
➔ Future simple tense with dropped 's' (recordará' instead of recordaráS)
➔ The verb "recordará'" is used in the future tense, but the final 's' is dropped, a common feature in informal speech. The correct conjugation would be "recordarás" for "you will remember."
-
Si tá divariando, lo rompemos sin pensarlo do' vece'
➔ Use of 'tá' (está) - Informal contraction
➔ The line contains the informal contraction "tá" for "está", the third-person singular present tense of the verb "estar". Again, this shows the informal style and colloquial language.
