[English]

I'm out here riding

Cruising through the city in a Lambo

Watching the time on my Cartier

Counting down the hours I have left to be happy

I keep on singing

We don't really worry anymore

Getting more bills, I can't even help myself

I'm seeing things that nobody else can see

I'm making toasts in a Bentley

The pleasure and the wildness hit me

These ladies aren't forever

Only top-tier models

There's no one more badass than me anywhere

Looking down at the stars from above

The night has already gotten long

And business is always waiting for me

...

Well surrounded

By the friends I keep by my side

The .38 Super, always tucked in tight

My diamonds shine, I've got the boss's style

I say my goodbyes

Now I've got my guard up, taking a breath

I love my family so much

Your boy is happy, everything went our way

I'm making toasts in a Bentley

The pleasure and the wildness hit me

These ladies aren't forever

Only top-tier models

There's no one more badass than me anywhere

Looking down at the stars from above

The night has already gotten long

And business is always waiting for me

...

[Spanish]

Ando dando

El rol por la ciuda' en un lambo

El tiempo en mi Cartier contando

Las horas que me quedan para ser feliz

Canto y canto

Ya no nos preocupamos tanto

Mas billetes, ya ni me aguanto

Ando mirando lo que nadie puede ver

Voy brindando en una Bentley

Me pegó el placer y la loquera

Las lady's no son pa' siempre

Pura modelito de primera

Mas cabrón que yo, no hay donde

Mirando de arriba las estrellas

Ya se hizo larga la noche

Y los negocios siempre me esperan

Bien rodeado

De amigos que cargo a mi lado

La súper, siempre bien fajado

Me brillan los diamantes, cargo la del boss

Me despido

Ya me puse alerta, un suspiro

A la familia mucho estimo

Alegre es el amigo, todo se nos dio

Voy brindando en una Bentley

Me pegó el placer y la loquera

Las lady's no son pa' siempre

Pura modelito de primera

Mas cabrón que yo, no hay donde

Mirando de arriba las estrellas

Ya se hizo larga la noche

Y los negocios siempre me esperan
