Mientras Tanto Lyrics in English by LIT killah
Pacto translates to "pact" or "agreement." It's an interesting word choice because it implies a serious, perhaps even sacred, commitment that has been broken.
In the song, LIT killah repeatedly states, "Mami, perdóname, pero yo ya rompí el pacto" (Mommy, forgive me, but I already broke the pact). This suggests a significant turning point or a decision to go against a previous understanding, adding a layer of intrigue and personal rebellion to the lyrics.
LIT killah's "Mientras Tanto" is all about living life in the fast lane, no brakes attached! He's speeding at "doscientos en el auto" [two hundred in the car], not even bothering to answer his phone because it's off. He's got a rebellious streak, saying he sees "luces rojas y pienso seguir de largo" [red lights and I plan to keep going]. He's made up his mind: "Yo ya no cambio, no" [I don't change anymore, no].
He talks about breaking a pact and throwing himself from the sky, just waiting for the impact. It's a pretty intense image! He also mentions feeling a bit crazy and bipolar, sometimes doubting himself, but then feeling like the world is his for the taking. He's got big ambitions, saying he needs to "escalar pa' subir el ranking" [climb to go up the ranking]. And while all this is happening, he's still out looking for fun, heading to the club and taking someone to the VIP. It's a wild ride, and he's definitely in control of his own chaotic journey!
