Bien recuerdo cuando me agarraron
I remember well when they grabbed me
Trato de hacer un espacio para contar lo que fue
I try to make a space to tell what was
No tiene caso que les mencione
There is no point in mentioning them
El lugar de los hechos dónde esto fue
The place of the events where this was
Y todo por tomar esta vida tan arriesgada
And all for taking this risky life
Tal vez no fue la medicina que tanto buscaba
Maybe it wasn't the medicine I was looking for.
Y esto fue al revés
And this was the other way around.
Balas
Bullets
Me hallaban
They found me
Ángel llama a la ambulancia
Angel calls the ambulance
Ya no había chansa, ya no había que hacer
There was no more chansa, there was no need to do
Estaba de frente como una manada
He was facing like a herd
Claro que me defendí y no alcancé
Of course I defended myself and did not reach
Esa noche no me lo esperaba, estaba en mi casa
That night I didn't expect it, I was at home
No más me acuerdo de mi familia asustada
No more I remember my scared family
Tuve que aguantarla y aferrado a defenderme
I had to put up with it and cling to defend myself.
Me subieron a una caja
I was put in a box
Lo que me pasaba por la mente
What was going through my mind
Mis hijos, esposa, mi padre y madre
My children, wife, my father and mother
Por eso hay que pensarla dos veces
That's why you have to think twice
Nada se compara con el estar bien
Nothing compares to being okay
La vida del narco no es fácil
The life of the narco is not easy
También se batalla
Also battle
Ratas envidiosas pasaban
Envious rats passed by
Y me saludaban, creen que yo no sé
And they greeted me, they think I don't know.
Vaya
Go
¿Qué pasa?
What's going on?
¿Dónde anda?
Where are you?
Mi raza
My race
Fíjense bien por donde ponen el pie
Look closely at where you put your foot
No se enreden con los de la mafia
Don't get entangled with those in the mafia
Ya les cante, ya saben como me fue
I sing to them, you know how it went
No se aplatanen por una lana
Do not flatten by a wool
Yo ayudo a mi gente
I help my people
Aunque no estén a mi lado
Even if they are not by my side
Aquí los traigo bien presentes
Here I bring you well present
Sean inteligentes
Be smart
Porque no saben mañana
Because they don't know tomorrow
Qué pasará en el presente
What will happen in the present
