Ay pero de por Dio'
Oh, but by God
No le de tanto golpe
Don't hit him so much
Pero lo va a mata'
But he's going to die
Déjalo respira'
Let him breathe
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it away, take it away, take it away
Que lo va a matá'
Because he's going to die
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it away, take it away, take it away
Que lo va a matá'
Because he's going to die
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it away, take it away, take it away
Que lo va a matá'
Because he's going to die
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
For it's gonna be deadly
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Que lo va a matá'
For it's gonna be deadly
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Que lo va a matá'
For it's gonna be deadly
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
For it's gonna be deadly
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
For it's gonna be deadly
Diez años, cincuenta peleas por nocaut
Ten years, fifty knockouts in the ring
Más duro que Maywater
Harder than Mayweather
Yo vivo en la calle, todos los días 'toy guacha'o
I live in the streets, every day I'm on guard
Al que se pase, yo lo voy a dejar cacha'o
Whoever crosses me, I'm going to leave them beaten
Se va pa' Nueva York, pero me mandan a matarme
He’s heading to New York, but they send someone to take me out
¿Tú crees que yo no sé lo que tú piensas pa' quitame?
You think I don't know what you're plotting to take me down?
Yo la viví to'a y tengo 27, jangueo en el Luperón y en la 17, ¡ja!
I've lived it all and I'm 27, hanging out in Luperón and 17, ha!
El chamaquito 'ta semilla
The kid's got the talent
Al movimiento entero yo le llevo milla'
I’m miles ahead of the whole movement
¡Ja!, ya yo sé por qué tú quilla
Ha!, now I know why you’re so salty
Tú mujer arriba de lo mío hace cuclilla'
You, woman, above my world, squatting down
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's gonna kill him
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's gonna kill him
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's gonna kill him
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's gonna kill him
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Que lo va a matá'
It's going to kill him
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Que lo va a matá'
It's going to kill him
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Que lo va a matá'
It's going to kill him
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Que lo va a matá'
It's going to kill him
Eres sambaca
You're a sambaca
Lo tengo, no encuentro pa' 'onde tirarlo
I have it, can't find where to throw it
Ni a este, ni al otro, ya todos hay que cacha'lo
Neither this one, nor that one, now we have to catch them all
No me pegue' lo' diente', si tú quiere' mama'lo
Don't bite me, if you want to taste it, baby
Un disco con el Alfa, tú no puede' grabarlo
A record with El Alfa, you can't record it
El más cotiza'o, to' lo que yo grabo es palo
The most sought after, everything I record is a hit
Yo estoy comiendo bistec y tengo un viste de dos palo'
I'm eating steak and I have a view of two poles
Yo voy pa' arriba como un misil
I'm rising up like a missile
En RD sin banda cobro 700 mil
In RD without a band I charge 700 thousand
Ven, pa' que te comas esta guinea
Come, so you can eat this guinea
Le meto diez millones a mi cuenta y ni se menea
I put ten million in my account and it doesn't even budge
¿Cómo 10 millones y cuánto es que tú tienes?
How ten million, and how much do you have?
Ponte pa' lo tuyo, que lo mío no te conviene
Focus on your own, because mine doesn't suit you
Quítenselo, ¡ah!, quítenselo, ¡oh!, quítenselo, ¡hey!
Take it away, ah!, take it away, oh!, take it away, hey!
Que lo va a matá', ¡ah!
Because it's gonna kill him, ah!
Quítenselo, ¡je!, quítenselo, ¡oh!, quítenselo, ¡hey!
Take it away, je!, take it away, oh!, take it away, hey!
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's gonna kill him
Otro nivel, otra galaxia
Another level, another galaxy
Los cheques 'tan muy altos
The checks are way too high
Hablamo' el marte'
We talk on Tuesday
Ustedes ni saben lo que están haciendo
You all don't even know what you're doing
Ustedes tienen las pilas puestas
You all are fully charged
Sí, 'tan puesta'
Yes, you're all charged up
Pero miren bien, que 'tan al revés
But look closely, it's all backwards
Ni siquiera 'tan prendiendo (¡wow!)
Not even getting it lit (wow!)
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's going to kill it
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's going to kill it
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's going to kill it
Quítenselo, quítenselo, quítenselo
Take it off, take it off, take it off
Que lo va a matá'
Because it's going to kill it
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ta, ta
Que lo va a matá'
That it's going to kill him
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Ra, ta, ta, ta, ra, ta
Que lo va a matá'
That it's going to kill him
