Diente Por Diente Lyrics in English by Santa Fe Klan, Robot95
Enganchado literally means “hooked,” and it can describe being physically caught or emotionally unable to let go. In the song, “aún sigo enganchado” means he is still hooked or caught up in something after seven years, giving the word a memorable sense of lingering attachment.
“Diente Por Diente” means “Tooth for tooth,” an expression for answering harm with equal retaliation. Santa Fe Klan and Robot95 present a speaker shaped by poverty, street danger, and ambition. He admits, “Si me arriesgué, fue por falta de billetes” [If I took risks, it was because I lacked money], then contrasts that past with a present filled with money, music, and status. The song’s world is blunt and dangerous: drugs, weapons, fake friends, envy, prison, and a family he says he will protect at any cost. “No dejaré nada a la suerte” [I won’t leave anything to chance] leads into his goal: “Me haré rico antes de mi muerte” [I’ll get rich before I die].
The chorus turns that survival mindset into a threat: “Fusca por fusca y diente por diente” [Gun for gun and tooth for tooth]. Here, fusca is street slang for a gun, while la flaca [the skinny woman] refers to death, pictured as someone who never rests. There is also a wild studio-and-street energy in the verses, with the two artists making music while mentioning marijuana, hashish, women, and cocaine. “Cantándole con amor al micro desde los trece” [Singing with love to the microphone since I was thirteen] adds an important detail: beneath the tough talk, rap is a long-standing craft for him. The result is boastful, reckless, and fiercely loyal, especially when he warns that anyone who touches his family will face death.
