[English]

Arcángel, man

Alex Gárgola

He has definitely had one of the best

Musical careers in this genre

Gárgola, ah

I love going out at night

I am not afraid of the darkness

...

I am a friend of the night

Even when surrounded by so much evil

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

It's just that the night is hot

And even hotter are the girls who party

Alone at the club, requesting and single

They're dying for reggaeton

And she goes all out, grinding on me, lit like fire

She wants to get active, to let loose without thinking

She calls out loudly for attention, to see who will please her

She likes diamonds, gangster style

Curious on her own, something interesting

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

She lets loose, and I can't believe what I see

She breaks her waistline so well, and I get hyped

She notices and follows my lead

I fake her out, surround her, taking her for a ride

Another kitten gargoyle

Who doesn't know I have to have her before the sun rises

Because I am a gargoyle

I stay in the dark, for sure

Because I'm on the fourth level

I love going out at night

I am not afraid of the darkness

...

I am a friend of the night

Even when surrounded by so much evil

Because I

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

I am a gargoyle

At night we go out to let loose

Women, nightclubs, dancing, grinding

I am a gargoyle

The women let themselves be swept away

Trendy reggaeton turned into perreo

It's not about composing (Arcángel, man)

It's about knowing how to perform

There can be many producers

Arrangers, composers (I know how)

But this genre depends on performers like (Dexter & Mr. Greenz)

Arcángel, pa

Alex Gárgola

Definitivamente, ha tenido una de las mejores

Trayectorias musicales en este género

Gárgola, ah

Me encanta salir de noche

Yo no le temo a la oscuridad

Amigo soy de la noche

Aunque me rodee tanta maldad

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reggaetón de moda convertido en el perreo

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reggaetón de moda convertido en el perreo

Es que la noche está buena

Y más buenas 'tán las nenas que juquean

Por la disco solas, solicitando y solteras

Se mueren por reguetón

Y le da con perrearme prendida en candela

Ella busca activarse, sin pensarlo soltarse

Llama fuerte la atención pa' ver quién la complace

Le gustan los diamantes, flow de gánster

Curiosa por sí sola, algo interesante

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reggaetón de moda convertido en el perreo

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reguetón de moda convertido en el perreo

Suelta, y lo que veo no lo creo

Ella rompe bien la cintura y me juqueo

Se da cuenta y me sigue el maquineo

Le bateo, la rodeo, llevándola de paseo

Otra gatita gárgola

Que no sabe que antes que amanezca me la tengo que comer

Porque soy una gárgola

Me mantengo en lo oscuro, seguro

Porque voy en el cuarto nivel

Me encanta salir de noche

Yo no le temo a la oscuridad

Amigo soy de la noche

Aunque me rodee tanta maldad

Porque yo

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reggaetón de moda convertido en el perreo

Soy una gárgola

De noche salimos pa' deshacer

Mujeres, discoteca, bailoteo, manoteo

Soy una gárgola

Las mujeres se dejan envolver

Reggaetón de moda convertido en el perreo

No se trata de componer (Arcángel pa)

Se trata de saber interpretar

Pueden existir muchos productores

Arreglistas, compositores (yo sí sé)

Pero este género depende de intérpretes como (Dexter & Mr. Greenz)

(Rady!; DJ Giann)
