Junior H’s “Que Siga La Mata Dando” feels like a late-night drive through memory lane and ambition. Over a laid-back corrido beat, the Mexican singer looks back at the old crew—“ayer éramos siete, hoy solo cuatro”—and realizes how quickly time, success, and betrayal can thin out a circle. He reminds us that the “mata” (literally a plant, metaphorically a money tree or source of fortune) keeps producing, so he refuses to look down or slow his grind. Between rolled blunts and bittersweet toasts, Junior H celebrates the real friends who stuck around, mourns the ones who drifted away, and warns us about the “gente corriente” lurking everywhere.
The chorus is a mantra for resilience: “que siga la mata dando.” It means keep the good things growing—keep hustling, keep creating, keep living. Even as the mirror shows new wrinkles and fewer comrades, the lesson is clear: count your true friends on one hand, stay alert for the fakes, and let yesterday’s troubles rest in peace. In the end, Junior H raises his glass to the future, determined to make sure the plant of prosperity, loyalty, and self-belief never stops bearing fruit.
