[English]

Ah

He's the boy with the swagger

Only playing with the big players, you hear me?

I take her home, I don't ask for permission

That's how I like it, with her hair straight

I don't know what she did, she cast a spell on me

And from hooking up, we never leave the floor

A wild one, a bad girl, she looks like a porn star

And the way she dances on the pole, it looks celestial

I give her a wink like Robinho

I take her home, they call me Ronaldinho

With the soul of a kid like Landiño

No one ever took a liking to him

I come from the bottom, from the rough neighborhoods

Where life hits you hard

Where if I die, don't bring me flowers

Where even the young kids rob you

I'm just doing my thing

I still keep the streets on fire

Where the police woman listens to me

Where the junkies trust the white powder

The brunette arrives and tells me "dance, dance"

She has a friend, so come and bring her

The older sister tells me "go for it"

You just keep singing, and I'll tame her

I take them down, I don't care if they come alone

I don't care if they all come together

We don't back down for anyone

We are out here chasing the money

The law wants to put me in handcuffs

He says to me: "Kid, how do you do it?"

I do it so her ass tightens up

I give her a wink like Robinho

I take her home, they call me Ronaldinho

With the soul of a kid like Landiño

No one ever took a liking to him

I give her a wink like Robinho

I take her home, they call me Ronaldinho

With the soul of a kid like Landiño

No one ever took a liking to him

This flow sounds deadly because it seems immortal

I see their lives as normal because they live like regular people

High quality, I carry it in my veins

I won't say it, but it's coming

She wants me to make her some babies

To kill it like no one else can

I'm still standing, proving my talent

I'm just waiting for the moment to arrive

I have everything, I'm just missing the wins

And I carry consistency deep inside, deep inside

I give her a wink like Robinho

I take her home, they call me Ronaldinho

With the soul of a kid like Landiño

No one ever took a liking to him

I give her a wink like Robinho

I take her home, they call me Ronaldinho

With the soul of a kid like Landiño

No one ever took a liking to him

...

[Spanish]

Ah

Es el nene de la combi

Solo gallo con los gallo', ¿oíste?

Yo me lo llevo, no pido permiso

Así me gusta con el pelo liso

No sé qué hizo, me hizo un hechizo

Y de chingar no salimos del piso

Una brava, una mala, parece una pornostar

Y como baila en el tubo parece algo celestial

A lo Robinho le tiro un guiño

Me la llevo, me dicen Ronaldinho

El alma de un niño como Landiño

Nadie le cogió cariño

Vengo de abajo, de barrios calentones

Donde la vida te daba galletones

Donde si muero no me traigan flores

Donde te roban los niños menores

Yo sigo en la mía

Sigo teniendo la calle prendida

Donde me escucha la de policía

Donde la blanca los yonkis se fía

Llega la morena y me dice que baila, baila

Tiene una amiga, pues ven y tráela

La hermana más grande que me dice "ya la'"

Tú solo cantas que yo la amanso

Los detono, no importa que vengan solos

No importa que vengan todos

A nadie le hacemos coro

Estamos en busca de los billetes

El mono quiere ponerme los grilletes

Me dice: "Nene, cómo tú le metes"

Yo le meto para que el culo apriete

A lo Robinho le tiro un guiño

Me la llevo, me dicen Ronaldinho

El alma de un niño como Landiño

Nadie le cogió cariño

A lo Robinho le tiro un guiño

Me la llevo, me dicen Ronaldinho

El alma de un niño como Landiño

Nadie le cogió cariño

Este flow suena mortal porque parece inmortal

Su vida la veo normal porque viven como normales

Mucha calidad lo llevo en las venas

Yo no le digo, pero se viene

Quiere que le haga unos nenes

Que la rompa como no hacen

Sigo de pie demostrando el talento

Estoy esperando que llegue el momento

Lo tengo todo, ganando me falta

Y la constancia la llevo por dentro, por dentro

A lo Robinho le tiro un guiño

Me la llevo, me dicen Ronaldinho

El alma de un niño como Landiño

Nadie le cogió cariño

A lo Robinho le tiro un guiño

Me la llevo, me dicen Ronaldinho

El alma de un niño como Landiño

Nadie le cogió cariño

Key Grammar Structures

• No sé qué hizo, me hizo un hechizo

  ➔ Preterite Tense (Pretérito Indefinido)

  ➔ The verb "hizo" is the irregular form of "hacer" (to do/make) in the 3rd person singular past tense, used for completed actions.

• De chingar no salimos del piso

  ➔ Verb + Infinitive construction

  ➔ Preposition "de" + "chingar" (infinitive verb) indicates the specific activity that is happening continuously.

• Si muero no me traigan flores

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood (Imperative context)

  ➔ "Traigan" is the imperative form of "traer" (3rd person plural), but is grammatically linked to the conditional "si" clause, often using subjunctive for negative commands.

• Donde la blanca los yonkis se fía

  ➔ Reflexive/Passive 'se' construction

  ➔ "Se fía" indicates an action performed by someone (the junkies trust/credit), where "se" adds a nuance of process or mutual action.

• Tú solo cantas que yo la amanso

  ➔ Present Indicative

  ➔ "Cantas" and "amanso" are regular present indicative verbs, used here to describe habitual actions or definitive statements.

• No importa que vengan solos

  ➔ Subjunctive after impersonal expressions

  ➔ The phrase "no importa que" (it doesn't matter that) triggers the subjunctive mood "vengan" (from "venir").

• Estoy esperando que llegue el momento

  ➔ Present Progressive + Subjunctive

  ➔ "Estoy esperando" is the progressive aspect (to be doing), while "que llegue" uses the subjunctive because the moment is future and uncertain.

• La rompa como no hacen

  ➔ Relative clause with negation

  ➔ "Como no hacen" serves as a relative clause comparing the subject to others, using "no" to establish a contrast.
