Singer: Gerardo Ortiz
Tranquilito, despacito
Voy subiendo a mi ritmo
No llevamos prisa
El que visualiza lo materializa
Le estoy dando de que hablar a los pericos
Siguen viendo cómo voy creciendo
Y es solo el comienzo
Calm down, slowly
I’m increasing my rhythm
We’re not in a hurry
He who visualises materialises
I’m giving parakeets something to talk about
They continue seeing how I’m growing
And it’s only the beginning
Si tuve tropiezos no fue suficiente
Y para detenerme no
No les daré el gusto de verme mal
Aquí hay buen queso pa’ las enchiladas
Pa’ poderme levantar sino
El que no me crea le puede calar
El que busca encuentra y se van a topar
If I stumbled it wasn’t enough
And not to stop me
I won’t give them the pleasure of seeing me bad
Here there’s good cheese for the enchiladas
To be able to get up
He who doesn’t believe me can get it
He who searches finds and are going to bump into
Y poco a poco
Se anda lejos
And little by little
It goes away
En las buenas, todos andan
En las malas, se acobardan
Subes y te llaman, bajas nadie te habla
Así está la transa
Tengo gente de confianza
Que me protege la espalda
Sonrisa en mi cara, no hay noticias malas
Los verdes no faltan
In the good times, everyone is with you
In the bad times, they’re cowards
You climb up and they call you, come down and no one talks to you
That’s the transaction
I have people of confidence
That have my back
Smile on my face, there’s no bad news
The real ones don’t miss
Regresé más fuerte claro que se puede
Yo estoy firme con la gente, sí
Que conmigo siempre se portó leal
El negocio avanza
Esto es una balanza
Cuídate del agua mansa, sí
Merecido me tengo este lugar
Hagan lo que hagan no voy a parar
Estoy listo pa’ jalar
I came back stronger of course it can be doe
And I’m firm with people, yes
Who were always loyal to me
The business advances
This is balance
Careful from still water, yes
I deserve this place
No matter what they do I’m not going to stop
I’m ready to pull
