[English]

SOG is so dope

SOG is so dope, right?

That woman is working hard, she's grinding

Tell me, Ryan

She earns her own money, don't worry

Right, SOG?

What do you say, Peso?

Without envying anyone

She's looking so fly, she already got a Mercedes

The girl is working hard for it

So fancy

Bad girl

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

If they play reggaeton, she gets wild

She used to dance alone

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

Bombo chilala, yeah

Her parents thought she was waking up early for work

But she was uploading photos to OnlyFans every day

She did it for fun, not out of necessity

Her friends told her, "You won't get out of this mess"

She went out on the street, they asked for photos

All the fanatics

But of her pussy

Now she lives in the suburbs

She doesn't ride a motorcycle anymore

From her old friends

One or two

She went out on the street, they asked for photos

All the fanatics

But of her pussy

Now she lives in the suburbs

She doesn't ride a motorcycle anymore

From her old friends

One or two

Bad girl

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

If they play reggaeton, she gets wild

She used to dance alone

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

Bombo chilala, yeah

Now she lives easy, lives fresh

By working her mouth, she learned to speak English

She doesn't worry about the monthly bills anymore

She takes out the Mercedes and the three of them hop in

Three friends who work in the same profession

She who can, does, and has blessings

All those who criticize them don't know the half of it

Vacations in Europe, Cancun, or Dubai

She went out on the street, they asked for photos

All the fanatics

But of her pussy

Now she lives in the suburbs

She doesn't ride a motorcycle anymore

From her old friends

One or two

She went out on the street, they asked for photos

All the fanatics

But of her pussy

Now she lives in the suburbs

She doesn't ride a motorcycle anymore

From her old friends

One or two

Bad girl

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

If they play reggaeton, she gets wild

She used to dance alone

With OnlyFans, she bought herself a square Mercedes

Bombo chilala

Yeah

[Spanish]

Que chimba SOG

Que chimba SOG no?

Esa mujer esta trabajando, está camellando

Dímelo Ryan

Se gana lo de ella, tranquila

O no SOG?

Qué dice peso?

Sin envidiarle nada a nadie

Mera chimbita ya se montó en Mercedes

La plebita está chambeando pa

Qué gomelería

Mala

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Si le ponen reggaeton prende el Creepy

Sola bailaba

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Bombo chilala, yeah

Sus padres pensaban que ella madrugaba a trabajar

Pero subía foticos todos los días al onlyfans

Ella lo hacía por ocio no por necesidad

Sus amigas le decían, no te vas a sacar de liar

Salió pa la calle, le pedían fotos

Todos los fanatics

Pero de su toto

Ya vive en el pobla

Ya no anda en moto

De los amigos de antes

Uno que otro

Salió pa la calle, le pedían fotos

Todos los fanatics

Pero de su toto

Ya vive en el pobla

Ya no anda en moto

De los amigos de antes

Uno que otro

Mala

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Si le ponen reggaeton prende el Creepy

Sola bailaba

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Bombo chilala, yeah

Ahora vive tranqui, vive fresh

Manejando la lengua aprendió a hablar inglés

Ya no se preocupa por las cuentas del mes

Saca la Mercedes y se montan las tres

Tres amigas que trabajan en la misma profesión

La que puede puede y tiene la bendición

Todos los que las critican no saben la que hay

Vacaciones en Europa, Cancun o Dubai

Salió pa la calle, le pedían fotos

Todos los fanatics

Pero de su toto

Ya vive en el pobla

Ya no anda en moto

De los amigos de antes

Uno que otro

Salió pa la calle, le pedían fotos

Todos los fanatics

Pero de su toto

Ya vive en el pobla

Ya no anda en moto

De los amigos de antes

Uno que otro

Mala

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Si le ponen reggaeton prende el Creepy

Sola bailaba

Con el only fans se compró la Mercedes cuadrada

Bombo chilala

Yeah
