El 50 cent europeo nigga, ah, ah 00:07
Si no lo veo no lo creo nigga, ah, ah 00:11
Hay mucho esperando a que yo falle 00:16
Me están siguiendo como al detalle 00:19
To's mis problemas ya los he resuelto 00:21
Y Dios me quiere porque salgo absuelto 00:23
La picardía me la dio la calle 00:25
Toy' con la ganga como Bryant Myers 00:28
Y no presumas de que tienes suelto 00:30
Los panas míos están haciendo vuelco 00:32
Y empotramos el coche hasta dentro 00:35
En la AP7 vamo' a 200 00:37
Yo me hago rico o muero en el intento 00:39
La vida puede cambiar al momento 00:42
Y muchas veces casi ni lo cuento 00:44
Mi corazón ta' lleno de lamento 00:46
Pero conmigo hice un juramento 00:48
Voy a morirme con los de 500 00:51

Rezando por mi madre y por mi abuela 00:56
Al que me dio la mano yo nunca lo olvidé 00:58
Si tú eres mi hermano, todo se divide 01:00
La calle me dejó secuela 01:03
Tú me ves sonriendo aunque a mí me duela 01:04
El Cyril tiene hambre, pero nunca pide 01:07
Trepaba' la ventana como el Spider 01:09
A veces me pregunto qué será del destino 01:11
Intento yo seguir mi camino 01:14
He nacido guerrero como lo' palestino' 01:16
La vida gira como un casino 01:18
Tiramos los casquillos dentro de la marea 01:20
Pa' que balística no los vea 01:23
En guerra como Pablo Escobar y la DEA 01:25
Soy guapo, pero vivo la fea 01:27
Y empotranos el coche hasta dentro 01:29
En la AP7 vamo' a 200 01:31
Yo me hago rico o muero en el intento 01:33

Yo soy ciego, mudo y sordo 01:47
Calibre 40 como el clan de los gordos 01:49
Niños en la goma se juegan la vida a bordo 01:51
Y te quitan del medio si eres un estorbo 01:53
Y me cuido de aquel que me abraza 01:56
Porque la maldad de amor se disfraza 01:58
He visto la novia de un preso que lo reemplaza 02:00
Y cómo matan a uno por una casa, yeah 02:02
Buscandome lo mío 02:05
Esto lo hago pa' dejárselo a mis críos 02:07
En el negocio está metido hasta mi tío, wow 02:09
Mi vida es un lío, yeah 02:12
A chapa to' los lunes 02:14
Estoy viendo la luz al final de ese túnel 02:16
No me importa que los periódicos me funen 02:18

Y empotramos el coche hasta dentro 02:23
En la AP7 vamo' a 200 02:25
Yo me hago rico o muero en el intento 02:27
La vida puede cambiar al momento 02:29

[English]
The European 50 Cent, nigga, ah, ah
If I don’t see it, I don’t believe it, nigga, ah, ah
There’s a lot of people waiting for me to fail
They’re following me, watching my every move
I’ve already solved all my problems
And God loves me ’cause I walk away clean
The street gave me my cunning
I’m with the crew like Bryant Myers
Don’t brag about having cash
My boys are flipping the script
And we’re cramming the car all the way in
On the AP7, we’re going 200
I’ll get rich or die trying
Life can change in an instant
And many times, I barely even tell the story
My heart is full of sorrow
But I made a vow to myself
I’ll die with the 500s
Here, if you don’t run, you fly
Praying for my mother and my grandmother
I never forget those who gave me a hand
If you’re my brother, we share everything
The street left its mark on me
You see me smiling, even when it hurts
Cyril’s hungry, but he never asks
I used to climb windows like Spider-Man
Sometimes I wonder what fate has in store
I try to keep walking my path
I was born a warrior like the Palestinians
Life spins like a casino
We toss the shells into the tide
So ballistics can’t see them
At war like Pablo Escobar and the DEA
I’m handsome, but I live the ugly life
And we’re cramming the car all the way in
On the AP7, we’re going 200
I’ll get rich or die trying
Life can change in an instant
And many times, I barely even tell the story
My heart is full of sorrow
But I made a vow to myself
I’ll die with the 500s
I’m blind, deaf, and dumb
.40 caliber like the clan of the heavies
Kids on the block risking their lives
And they’ll take you out if you’re in the way
I watch out for those who embrace me
’Cause evil disguises itself as love
I’ve seen a prisoner’s girlfriend replace him
And how they kill someone over a house, yeah
Chasing what’s mine
I do this to leave it for my kids
Even my uncle’s in the business, wow
My life’s a mess, yeah
Locked up every Monday
I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel
I don’t care if the papers drag me through the mud
Yeah, rich from autotune
And we’re cramming the car all the way in
On the AP7, we’re going 200
I’ll get rich or die trying
Life can change in an instant
And many times, I barely even tell the story
My heart is full of sorrow
But I made a vow to myself
I’ll die with the 500s, ha
