If tomorrow the deal falls through and they take everything I have today

Tell me if you stay or you go

Or are you going to turn like all these pigs that turned on me

They forgot that they needed me

Babe, speak clearly

If I didn't have this role would you give me your time

If you didn't have this ticket for all your plans

I don't know if the hugs you would give me are the same

If it weren't for the perfume that I have on

My bad babe but it's normal

For heartbreak I don't want to cry no

I've lived through so many betrayals

That it's hard for me to trust

My bad babe but it's normal

For heartbreak I don't want to cry no

I've lived through so many betrayals

That it's hard for me to trust

I want to know what happens when it happens

That the rent money doesn't come in wrong

Nor the ticket for the case

That the boxes start to fall

That they get delayed

That the customer starts to complain when the passes are given

That the drug isn't good

That the coke is cut

That the point slows down, the shooter is embezzled

Another war that explodes on me

Another bro that turned

Another time we go hunting in stolen cars

And if they kill me I don't return

Tell me if you're going to forget my kisses

Tell me if you're going to be loyal to my d*ck

When the gang explodes and they put me in jail

I looked for a way to change baby and move forward

To take you to travel the world and cover you in diamonds

The teeth, the a*s, the t*ts, the implants

But tell me how I can leave the street

I was born a thug, a natural killer

To kill people I don't get high

To cut myself every time I apply a buttstroke

Long sleeves always to cover the tattoos on my arm

And I cover my face with clown masks

They don't identify me, I have 20 glocks, 20 hermits

I pay you motherf*cker if you take the case from me

Who am I?

Alex Trujillo, the sweeper

Who are you?

Alex Trujillo

The one who preaches

We are not alike

We are the ones who make

PR fill with blood entirely

The one who comes to judge me should find out first

That my shoes can't be worn by just any fool

My bad babe but it's normal

For heartbreak I don't want to cry no

I've lived through so many betrayals

That it's hard for me to trust

My bad babe but it's normal

For heartbreak I don't want to cry no

I've lived through so many betrayals

That it's hard for me to trust

Mama, I give you whatever you want

But I want to know if you're going to be there the day they lock me up

If the road is hot

I want to know if you're one of those who hide

To not see me

Babe, all this power isn't worth it if I don't have loyal people to mine

A thousand chains don't shine

If they're the ones that maintain your shine

If tomorrow the deal falls through and they take everything I have today

Tell me if you stay or you go

Or are you going to turn like all these pigs that turned on me

They forgot that they needed me

Babe, speak clearly

If I didn't have this role would you give me your time

If you didn't have this ticket for all your plans

I don't know if the hugs you would give me are the same

If it weren't for the perfume that I have on

maleante — gangster / criminal

Maleante translates to "gangster" or "criminal". It's a strong and provocative word that immediately sets a tone of danger and rebellion.

In the song, Alex Rose declares, "Yo nací maleante un asesino NATO" (I was born a gangster, a natural-born killer). This word is central to the artist's persona and the song's narrative, highlighting a life deeply entrenched in the streets and illegal activities. It's a raw and unfiltered term that offers a glimpse into a specific cultural context.

Alex Rose opens with a threat dressed as a question: "Si mañana se me cae la vuelta y me quitan todo lo que tengo hoy" [If tomorrow the deal falls through and they take everything I have today]. The hook, "Dime si te quedas o te vas" [Tell me if you stay or you go], is less a breakup line than a loyalty test aimed at a partner who might bail the moment the money does. He backs it with a list of what he actually has to lose, unsure the gifts even buy real affection: "No sé si los abrazos que me dieras son igual" [I don't know if the hugs you would give me are the same]. Underneath it all sits the reason for the suspicion, the line the song keeps circling back to: "He vivido tantas traiciones que me cuesta confiar" [I've lived through so many betrayals that it's hard for me to trust].

The second half drops the metaphor. Alex Rose names himself outright, "Alex Trujillo escobadon" [Alex Trujillo, the sweeper], and lays out the life behind the ultimatum in blunt detail: stolen cars, a shooter who's been skimming, a mask worn to hide his face and his tattoos. "No nos parecemos" [We're not alike] plays as both a boast and a warning. By the time he asks for loyalty and wants to know if she'll still be there "el día que a mí me encierren" [the day they lock me up], the question from the hook has its real stakes.
