Subiste una foto pa que te vea

You posted a photo for me to see

Y al chile, mami, tú sí estás bien buena

And honestly, baby, you really look good

¿Qué hay que hacer hoy?

What are we doing today?

Pa ti tengo la cartera llena

I have a wallet full for you

Te forro de la marca que tú quieras

I'll dress you in whatever brand you want

Eres un bombón

You're a sweetheart

Te va a encantar mi fragancia

You're going to love my fragrance

Huelo a problemas, Creed y mota cara

I smell like trouble, Creed and expensive weed

Ya te quiero ver, bichi, en el motel, bebé Lucifer

Hoy no llegarás a casa

You won't be going home today

Voy a robarte, y sí, es una amenaza

Bebé, ¿dime quién te eriza la piel como la otra vez?

Baby, tell me who makes your skin tingle like last time?

Y dime quién, chiquitita

And tell me who, little one

Ey, ey, ey, ey, ey

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Y al que conteste, sabe, me la pela

Si el bueno soy yo

Seduce, atrapa, tú eres la condena

Key Grammar Structures

• Subiste una foto pa' que te vea

  ➔ Subjunctive mood (present subjunctive after 'para que')

  ➔ The phrase "para que" (in order that, so that) requires the subjunctive mood in the subordinate clause. "Vea" is the subjunctive form of "ver" (to see).

• Y al chile, mami, tú sí estás bien buena

  ➔ Use of "sí" for emphasis

  ➔ The word "sí" before "estás" is used for emphasis, meaning "you really are" or "you definitely are".

• ¿Qué hay que hacer hoy?

  ➔ Impersonal "hay que + infinitive"

  ➔ "Hay que hacer" means "one must do" or "it is necessary to do". It expresses obligation or necessity in a general sense.

• Te forro de la marca que tú quieras

  ➔ Subjunctive mood (present subjunctive after 'que')

  ➔ When "que" introduces a relative clause that describes something uncertain or indefinite, the subjunctive is often used. Here, "quieras" is the subjunctive form of "querer" (to want).

• Huelo a problemas, Creed y mota cara

  ➔ Using "a" with the verb "oler"

  ➔ The preposition "a" is used with the verb "oler" to indicate what something smells *of*. "Huelo a problemas" means "I smell of problems."

• Ya te quiero ver, bichi, en el motel, bebé Lucifer

  ➔ Use of the verb "querer" + infinitive to express wanting to do something.

  ➔ "Quiero ver" means "I want to see". The infinitive "ver" follows the verb "querer" to express the desire to perform the action.

• Voy a robarte, y sí, es una amenaza

  ➔ Future tense using "ir a + infinitive"

  ➔ "Voy a robarte" is the near future tense. It's formed by conjugating "ir" (to go) + "a" + infinitive. Here, it means "I am going to steal you" or "I will steal you."
