No Son Doritos

• By: Clave Especial, Luis R Conriquez

Lyrics:

[Español]

[English]

¡Trakas, hijue su puta madre!

Trakas, son of a bitch!

Por ahí se vio un comando con rifles largos, armas de fuego

A squad was spotted around here with long rifles, firearms

Pa andar en lo que yo ando, se ocupa más que tener dos huevos

To be doing what I'm doing, you need more than just having two balls

Mucha mentalidad, gracias a Dios, igualito a mi apá

A lot of mentality, thank God, just like my dad

Aquí traigo una SCAR y un lanzapapas si se portan mal

I've got a SCAR here and a potato launcher if you misbehave

Los LV plateados en la blindada, chingo de cueros

The silver LVs in the armored truck, a lot of hides

Pa'l jale soy bien perro, y pa las damas, bien caballero

I'm a real dog for work, and a true gentleman for the ladies

Se me mueve en cantidad, no son Doritos, pura calidad

It moves in quantity, it's not Doritos, it's pure quality

La Dior repleta está de dolaritos, llegan de LA

The Dior bag is full of dollars, they come from LA

Así suena Luis R

That's how Luis R sounds

Y la Clave Especial

And the Clave Especial

¡Trakas, hijue su puta madre!

Trakas, son of a bitch!

Mija, vente p'acá, quе no te espante a ti mi actividad

Baby, come here, don't let my business scare you

Tе compré estas joyas, y este perfume dice Baccarat

I bought you these jewels, and this perfume is Baccarat

Los anillos de atrás que no te espanten, son seguridad

Don't let the rings on the back scare you, it's security

Fletes vienen y van, se vende el jale como el In-N-Out

Shipments come and go, the work sells like In-N-Out

Por ahí se vio un comando con rifles largos, armas de fuego

A squad was spotted around here with long rifles, firearms

Bajando de la sierra, y allá en La Perla también nos vieron

Coming down from the mountains, and they saw us there in La Perla too

Mucha mentalidad, gracias a Dios, igualito a mi apá

A lot of mentality, thank God, just like my dad

Aquí traigo una SCAR y un lanzapapas si se portan mal

I've got a SCAR here and a potato launcher if you misbehave
