Gran Pez Lyrics in English by Gera MX
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Gran Pez by Gera MX from Spanish to English.
Hoy me apodan El Gran Pez, ayer un niño con diez
Today they nickname me Big Fish, yesterday a kid with straight A's
Desde morro salí al ruedo, tuve bronca con dos-tres
Since a kid I hit the arena, had beef with a few
Mi cuadra fue maestra, graduados con sencillez
My block was a teacher, graduated with simplicity
Humildes de la cuna al barrio no lo molestes, ¿ves?
Humble from the cradle, don't mess with the hood, see?
Me preguntaba '¿entonces qué?'
I asked myself "so what?"
Yeah, '¿apoco me voy a joder?'
Yeah, "am I really gonna get f*cked?"
Nah, la vida no podía entender
Nah, life I couldn't understand
¿O me dejará ser rico?, tener un Mercedes-Benz
Or will it let me be rich?, have a Mercedes-Benz
Manejar a 180 fumando en alguna playa
Drive at 180 smoking on some beach
Con la baby que me gusta y esta labia que no falla
With the babe I like and this smooth talk that never fails
La muerte me sigue el trote, no creo que nadie lo note
Death keeps pace with me, I don't think nobody notices
Por eso es que traigo prisa de comprarme casa y bote
That's why I'm in a rush to buy myself a house and boat
Mami, muéstrame el escote, déjame hacer de las mías
Babe, show me the cleavage, let me do my thing
La güera me quiere tanto que parece brujería
The blonde loves me so much it feels like witchcraft
Mi empresa nunca se fía, mafia gitana
My company never gives credit, gypsy mafia
Nomás fáltame el respeto pa que no te queden ganas
Just disrespect me so you don't feel like trying again
Y esos güeyes bien frustrados pensándome en la mañana
And those dudes real frustrated thinking 'bout me in the morning
Yo tranquilo, marihuano, viendo si pollo o lasagna
Me chill, high, seeing whether chicken or lasagna
Por algo afuera dicen 'menos fuerza y pura maña'
There's a reason they say outside "less strength and pure craft"
Ah, en diciembre sí te extrañan
Ah, in December they do miss you
Hoy quiero ver a todos con el producto en el aire
Today I wanna see everyone with the product in the air
Parece que canto salsa, mira, tengo lleno el baile
Looks like I sing salsa, look, I got the dance floor full
Vagos desde morros, somos hijos de la calle
Bums since kids, we're children of the street
Hoy todos me conocen, yo no quería ser Don Nadie
Today everybody knows me, I didn't wanna be a Nobody
Hoy quiero ver a todos con el producto en el aire
Today I wanna see everyone with the product in the air
Parece que canto salsa, mira, tengo lleno el baile
Looks like I sing salsa, look, I got the dance floor full
Vagos desde morros, somos hijos de la calle

Todos pasen, bienvenidos al museo de mi trayecto

Casi década completa rindiéndole culto al templo
Almost a whole decade worshipping the temple
Nunca tuve buen ejemplo, mi padre se fue buen tiempo
Never had a good example, my dad was gone a good while
Cómo volaron los años, daños que no me arrepiento
How the years flew by, damages that I don't regret
Tuve buena escuela gangsta, me enseñé a sacar la casta
Had good gangsta school, learned to show my grit
Agradecido con Bertita, puro pollito con pasta
Grateful to Bertita, straight chicken with pasta
Libros de mi vida y con veinticinco no basta
Books of my life and twenty-five ain't enough
Pero mira cómo jalo, mami, llena la canasta
But look how I grind, babe, fill the basket
Me volví adicto a este juego, papi, pura bala fría
I got addicted to this game, babe, pure stray bullet
Mi cartera es como Roy, manito, come todo el día
My wallet is like Roy, bro, eats all day long
Pinche cara de alegría que me cargo todavía
F*cking happy face that I still wear
Sábanas de oro por si Juanita María
Gold sheets in case of Juanita María
Escribo por un recuerdo y una infancia de película
I write for a memory and a movie-like childhood
La vida te atropella y nadie apunta la matrícula
Life runs you over and nobody writes down the license plate
Monterrey sin clima, pura cheve en la canícula
Monterrey with no A/C, pure beer during dog days
En la casa por las rayas me traían a pura crítica
At home 'cause of the tattoos they constantly criticized me
Wow, tuve que pelear con todos
Wow, I had to fight everyone
Y es por eso que no puedo dejarme joder por bobos
And that's why I can't let myself get f*cked by fools
En San Luis nadie me cuenta de malandros y de robos
In San Luis nobody tells me about thugs and robberies
Aquella sí me duele pero me acuerdo y me sobo
That girl really hurts me but I remember and rub it off
Algunas quieren sexo al ritmo de un saxo
Some want sex to the rhythm of a sax
Otras quieren pesos, te enredan con los brazos
Others want cash, tangle you with their arms
Otras piden besos, pero es muy raro el caso
Others ask for kisses, but it's a real rare case
Mamita, yo te rezo, que no se rompa el lazo
Babe, I pray to you, don't let the bond break
Hoy quiero ver a todos con el producto en el aire
Today I wanna see everyone with the product in the air
Parece que canto salsa, mira, tengo lleno el baile
Looks like I sing salsa, look, I got the dance floor full
Vagos desde morros, somos hijos de la calle

Hoy todos me conocen, yo no quería ser Don Nadie

Hoy quiero ver a todos con el producto en el aire
