25/8 Lyrics in English by Bad Bunny

Home / Lyrics translation / Bad Bunny / 25/8

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song 25/8 by Bad Bunny from Spanish to English.

I keep being the same, I haven't changed

I have what's mine without having to pretend

I'm always with the same guys, high

Now it's always Louis Vuitton, but I'm never gonna change

I like the streets

25/8 ready, don't slip

Humble, but I'll never back down

It's hot, but you're not gonna leave me

Today we hit the streets

Luka Dončić, there's no way that I miss

We stay at 200 and we won't slow down

We're always in PR, thugging, horny, scoring

I keep being the same, my reflection changed

New, but I feel like one of the old ones

Humble, but I don't let them play me

Loyal, but not dumb

And don't bet against me, 'cause you'll see that you're gonna get tangled up

I bought the Tokyos, I put wings on the chain

The 11s in white and royal blue

The babe asks me not to take them off to f*ck

And I go the whole night without taking off the kicks

I'm pricey, I no longer know what a twenty is

I brought a new weed that's fire, like Benni

Fluorescent green buds, they look like tennis balls

And from pound to pound

It's not that I'm antisocial, it's that you guys give bad vibes

I know that seeing me look good throws them off

But normal, but normal, but normal

Without going to playoffs I win the final

You touch me and you won't tune up again

You're gonna detune your guitar

In DR they say, 'My crazy, you're the ultimate'

And in PR 'You're too f*cking good, you son of a b*tch'

I'm the best at this, don't argue

Here any rhythm always gets executed

The goofy white kid that studied at the Cuta

But I like the streets

25/8 ready, don't slip

Humble, but I'll never back down

It's hot, but you're not gonna leave me

Today we hit the streets

Luka Dončić, there's no way that I miss

We stay at 200 and we won't slow down

We're always in PR, thugging, horny, scoring

Don't brag about tickets, I also have a ton

They say I'm not street, that I don't leave the gate

But this is PR, here anybody spins the block

And prr, prr, welcome to the hot zone

If I start flexing, I can't stand myself

The one that made them dress in colors and shorts

Don't play blind and deaf

Like the government, that still has the houses with tarps

Never follow—

No, no, keep the track going, keep the track going

Never a follower, I've always been a leader

7/25, bro, you can't live on that

But now we're billing like a Wide Receiver

My verses are classics like Boca-River

Never a follower, I've always been a leader

7/25, bro, with that you can't—

Gimme a, gimme a break, you're gonna drop something else, you're gonna drop something else, okay

Today we took the Lambo Urus out of the driveway

You guys have it in Miami, I got it in Carolina

I smash all the nasties quietly, like Raphy Pina

Stunting and f*cking, I love the adrenaline

I got a lot of cash, that's why I'm chilindrina

Lowkey, I never let myself be seen, like John Cena

Remember, the big bosses don't stand on the corner

I'm like the boogeyman, I come out when there's fog

D*mn, I'm the bomb, my mind is a mine

They bought a mansion with what I made in the booth

They spend their time crying like when the Grammy doesn't nominate them

If I don't stop this verse, it doesn't end

Real until

embrollar — to get tangled up / to get into a mess

Embrollar literally means "to tangle" or "to complicate". It's a fantastic, descriptive verb that paints a vivid picture of getting caught in a messy situation, a word you won't find in every song.

In "25/8", Bad Bunny delivers a confident warning: "no apuestes en mi contra, que te vas a embrollar" (don't bet against me, or you'll get yourself into a mess). He uses this unique word to boast that challenging him will only lead to complex trouble, which is a much more powerful image than simply saying you'll have problems.

In "25/8", Puerto Rico's Bad Bunny pushes past the standard 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week. He is working overtime and running at full speed without slowing down. Even with high-end Louis Vuitton gear and a garage full of luxury rides, his core rule stays the same: "Yo sigo siendo el mismo, yo no he cambiao'" ("I'm still the same, I haven't changed"). He stacks up heavy Puerto Rican slang to flex his status while keeping his circle tight. When he warns people "no te guaye'" ("don't scrape yourself" or "don't mess up"), he is daring rivals to test his streak. He compares his deadly accuracy on the mic to NBA superstar Luka Dončić ("Luka Dončić, no hay manera que yo falle" ["Luka Dončić, there's no way I miss"]), and brags about raking in cash like an NFL wide receiver.

The second half turns into an open flex where Benito calls out critics who think his fame detached him from the island. He mocks folks who rent flash in Florida while he parks his Lamborghini Urus right at home in Carolina, Puerto Rico ("Ustedes la tienen en Miami, yo la tengo en Carolina"). There is also sharp bite here; he remembers scraping by on Puerto Rico's minimum wage—calling it out directly with "7/25, bo, con eso no se vive" ("$7.25, man, you can't live on that")—and even jabs at slow disaster relief by pointing out the blue tarps still stuck on roofs ("casas con toldo"). Mixing pop culture drops like John Cena's invisible persona with intense soccer rivalries ("Boca-River"), he treats the booth like a gold mine while laughing off anyone whining about missing Grammy nominations.
