Lyrics & Translation

[Spanish]

[English]

Ando con la mente en blanco

I'm wandering with my mind blank

Ya me tocaron la sangre

They've already marked my blood

Con fuerza me agunto el llanto

I hold back the tears with strength

El daño es irremediable

The damage is irreversible

Conmigo ya se enrredaron

They've already tangled with me

Les dijo Gonzalo que traigan un padre

Gonzalo told them to bring a priest

Y desde los Sacros Santos

And from the Sacred Saints

Porque de la muerte no van a salvarse

Because they won't save themselves from death

Me destape otra Buchanan's

I poured another Buchanan's

Ahora me toca la mia

Now it's my turn

Ya me subí a la blindada

I've gotten into the armored truck

Me traje la artillería

I've brought my artillery

Traigo de todas las balas

I carry all kinds of bullets

Viene la plebada voy de cacería

The crew is coming, I'm on the hunt

La presa ya esta ubicada

The target is already in place

Como tiro al blanco los tengo en la mira

Like shooting at the bullseye, I have them in my sights

...

...

Como me hierve la sangre

How my blood boils

Me duele lo que me hicieron

It hurts what they did to me

Pagaran por traicionarme

They'll pay for betraying me

Tendrán que lidiar con eso

They'll have to deal with that

Traigo bastante coraje

I'm full of courage

Pa' que me torearon ya estoy en el ruedo

If they tried to mess with me, I'm already in the ring

Mataron gente inocente

They killed innocent people

Que ni la debía pagaran por eso

Traigo el diablo en la mirada

I have the devil in my gaze

Y la voz no se me corta

And my voice is unshaken

Para seguir ordenando

To keep commanding

A los hombres que me escoltan

The men escorting me

Las manos me estan temblando

My hands are trembling

Pero no de miedo es porque no se cortan

But not from fear, it's because I don't hold back

Las rafagas de los cuernos

The bursts from the horns

Que estan respondiendo a los que me traiconan

That are responding to those who betray me

...

...

Ando listo pal combate

I'm ready for battle

Traigo el mejor armamento

I carry the best weapons

Son más de trescientas gentes

Las que navego en el ruedo

Who ride in the ring

Los traigo con antitanques

I bring them with anti-tank weapons

También con basucas, chalecos y cuernos

Also with bazookas, vests, and horns

Pa' pegarles en la madre

To hit them hard

Yo no tengo tregua ni soy traicionero

I don’t have mercy or betray

Soy de la raza del Mayo

I'm from Mayo's bloodline

Con el niño sigo firme

With the young one, I stay firm

En Culiacan me la paso

In Culiacán, I spend my days

Donde nací he de morirme

Where I was born, I will die

Traigo a todos mis muchachos

I have all my guys with me

Ando bien armado nunca olviden esto

I'm well armed, never forget this

Por cierto yo soy Gonzalo

By the way, I'm Gonzalo

Mi clave es el once, soy el macho prieto

My code is eleven, I’m the dark macho

...
