Tu No Vive Así Lyrics in English Arcángel , Bad Bunny, DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tu No Vive Así by Arcángel from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
I got used to the sour, it doesn't kick anymore
They get to my house, nobody cops it
Only models like Barea
Barea references the Puerto Rican basketball player, José Juan Barea
Multiply the 100, that's the task
I'm the chieftain in your own village
I'm worth more than everything that surrounds you
Don't buy it, remember that Curry sinks it
Until Lebron guards him
Come down the hill, that I'm rolling with the orchestra
B*stards, the basket, I'm never down on the bets
And even less on this one
I point it out that from the final straight we're at the end of the straight
The devil injects me and I take the house, I don't even lay them down
Another one falls by the force of gravity
One more in case he survives by chance
Refute my thesis, a*shole, and we'll give you catechism
I haven't scored a goal and I got Cristianos praying to Messi
Chorus 1
You brag, a*shole, and you don't live like that
Your girl keeps an eye on me
She calls to get it and I tell her yes
I'm a motherf*cker since I was born
You brag, a*shole, and you don't live like that
Your girl calls me and I tell her yes
I'm not gonna change, I've always been like this
I'm a motherf*cker since I was born
Verse 2
I'm back
But to smash the beat
But how am I back? I don't get it
If I never left
Harder than my d*ck
F*ck with me and you go to the pawn shop
I got a couple of kids, a couple of nephews
Whoever doesn't call me babe calls me uncle
Respect the ranks, the position
I traded fame for admiration
I'm never out of ammunition
They wanna flex but they lack condition
I keep living my life, a*shole
Always active in my big ride
I got out of the alley all alone
And I bought babe a million-dollar mansion
I got the sauce
I got the swagger that moves the masses
I'm loyal to my label
That's why everybody asks what's up
Arcángel sounds
Hey, no matter how much we block him
Arcángel sells out every concert
And we don't have him
Chorus 2
You brag, a*shole, and you don't live like that
Your girl calls me and I tell her yes
I'm not gonna change, I've always been like this
I'm a motherf*cker since I was born
You brag, a*shole, and you don't live like that
Your girl keeps an eye on me
She calls to get it and I tell her yes
I'm a motherf*cker since I was born
Verse 3
Tonight we're out with all the boys set for hysteria
These b*stards brag about sticks and we're the owners of the hardware store
We roll with all the rosaries without knowing the Hail Mary
They bark, they bark, they bark, they bark and they're like Meek Mill with no battery
We don't miss a hook
Today if the hook catches me
We storm into your ranch
And make a wide hole in your face
So am I a thug?
A*shole, I don't know
What I know
Is that nerves don't exist after two Percocets
Today there's no excuse and if it's pulled it's used
If my .40 were Versace
We'd leave a Medusa on your face
The night is confusing and if you cross with me
A*shole, we're gonna leave you jumping
Like at Lollapalooza
Weed, hookah and pills
The Cuban link she left you shines
Today we put you in the chapel
Even if you're with the family eating at Padilla
Nobody's been born yet that does it like me
If I don't catch you in PR, I'll catch you in the 2000 New York
Austin Baby
Bad Bunny
The Bad Rabbit
And I'm the Evil Elf

SONG MEANING

Tu No Vive Así is a swagger-packed anthem where Arcángel and Bad Bunny put every pretender on notice. Over a hard-hitting Latin trap beat, they celebrate real street credibility, luxury, and musical dominance while mocking anyone who only acts tough online or in the club. Lines comparing themselves to NBA stars (Curry, LeBron) and soccer icons (Cristiano, Messi) highlight how effortlessly they score wins, and the repeated hook “Tú ronca, cabrón, y tú no vive así” drives home the message: you talk loud, but you don’t live that life.

The verses overflow with daring humor, vivid threats, and over-the-top boasts about money, designer weapons, and endless admirers. Yet beneath the brash imagery lies a core idea of authenticity. Arcángel reminds listeners that he rose from the barrio to buy his mom a mansion, and Bad Bunny flaunts loyalty to his crew rather than chasing hollow fame. Together with DJ Luian and Mambo Kingz, they turn self-confidence into an electrifying warning: in Puerto Rican trap, only the genuine survive.
