Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bendecido by Eladio Carrion from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

And if you let me down once, that's on you

On the second it's my fault

By the third, n***a, it's disrespect

And they're gonna have to pick me up in a police car

Stop, stop, stop

And I don't even know how to tell them that I only compete with myself

They take shots at me, but time is my accountant, it keeps all the receipts

Problems, problems come to me, problems and the sleep that I can't get

Problems, problems I have, but

Chorus 1

I am blessed, yeah

That the family doesn't turn on me is the only thing that I ask, yeah

I feel too f*cking good, you watch my back, I swear I'll watch yours, yeah

And I know that friends are a weight in the pocket

Bad vibes get thrown at me, I don't care, n***a, because I'm blessed

Verse 2

There are good days, there are bad days, there are days that I just wish to disappear

But with God I know that I can beat everything

There are tears inside that I want to shed

But I keep it gangster like Denzel

Because if a problem happens, who's gonna call?

Don't worry, it won't be you, it'll be Ela'

Weights on my shoulders like I play NFL

There are twenty grand just in fines for smoking in hotels

So many Cubans, when they see me they say "Damn, asere"

The best thing I did was learn to take all my L's

Because those L's are profit

I learned from all my ignorances

I started to look for peace and not vengeance

And in the end, I put everything on the scale and realized that

I am blessed, yeah

Chorus 2

That the family doesn't turn on me is the only thing that I ask, yeah

I feel too f*cking good, you watch my back, I swear I'll watch yours, yeah

And I know that friends are a weight in the pocket

Bad vibes get thrown at me, I don't care, n***a, because I'm blessed

SONG MEANING

Bendecido is Eladio Carrión’s victory lap, a trap anthem where the Puerto Rican star counts his blessings while keeping it brutally real about the weight he still carries. Over a hypnotic beat, Eladio sets three strict rules for loyalty, then fires off a stream of confessions: legal troubles, sleepless nights, and the constant pressure of fame. Yet every line circles back to one mantra: “Yo estoy bendecido” — he feels protected by faith, family, and hard-earned wisdom.

Instead of bragging only about money, Eladio highlights what really matters to him: unbreakable family ties, friends who don’t become “a peso in the pocket,” and the lessons hidden inside every loss (“L’s”). He admits to dark days and silent tears, but refuses to drop his “gangster Denzel” composure. In the end, the song is an anthem of resilience: life may throw problems, fines, and fake friends, but as long as faith and loyalty stay intact, Eladio knows he is — and will stay — blessed.
