Pelele Lyrics in English by Morad

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pelele by Morad from Spanish to English.
Man, it doesn't work for you
Man, it doesn't work for you
Morad, not you, Morad how you crush it
If you come in here, no
Morad how you crush it, if you get in here you don't get out
You know that you aren't worth what I sound like on instrumentals
Talking about the illegal worlds
Catchy like Dale Don Dale
I'm always bumping in the street, you on 40 Principales
Four guitarists, seventeen who have an orchestra
To make a track that doesn't even play at the party
I do my writing while smoking a green one
You last two months, you're out of coverage
The street is crazy, that's what burns
We pay Toca and you beg your girl
Boss González might size you up
Your car stalls, and you end up later on TV
See that it's already easy in five minutes
I make it hard now, quick and also spotless
Harder than plaster, I argue it with more than one
Me alone no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no
Hey, hey, hey, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait till I change it
It says, it says
Tell me where you hang, so that I can go get you and take you aside
Where are you hiding? I don't care
Having to record you, if you are a mess
Where are you hiding? And who's your buddy?
The one that works it for you or the one that fights for you
Where are you hiding? Where is your crew?
To see how I spit it and then I don't even worry
Where are you hiding?
Pa-pa-, stop
You have a gun but it doesn't fire
Eladio said 'There's no vest for the face'
So we'll do you like the 9amara, like the 9amara
Wait
Now I see that I'm doing whatever I want
And you're squeezed by label interest
And I'm chill until the day I die
Until they sho-, hey, hey, hey
Pe-pe-, dummy
You think that it's so easy to name the L
Since we know that you don't reach the levels
And we gave you guys the bread, the first bread
Pe-pe-, dummy
You think that it's so easy to name the L
Since we know that you don't reach the levels
And we gave you guys the bread, the first bread
Pa-pa-stop
When they see me head-on they already say 'Stop'
When they see me head-on they already say 'Stop'
When they see me head-on they already say 'Stop'
They already say 'Stop'
Pe-pe-dummy
Dummy
Dummy
Dummy
Pe-pe-dummy
I see-see-see your crew, yeah I see them
Crew? yeah I see them
Crew? yeah I see them
I see your crew and all that comes out is 'Hahaha'
I see your crew and only hahaha
I see your crew and only hahaha
Hahaha, hahaha
Your mama t*tty, hahaha
Pe-pe-dummy

PelelePuppet / Wimp

Pelele literally translates to 'puppet' or 'rag doll', but it's used as slang to call someone a 'wimp' or a 'pushover'. It's a very descriptive insult for someone who lacks their own will and is easily manipulated.

In this diss track, Morad repeatedly calls his rival a pelele to diminish him. He's saying his opponent is not a real artist but just a puppet controlled by others, someone weak and without substance. It's a powerful, memorable word that perfectly captures the song's confrontational energy.

This song is a straight-up diss track, and Morad is not holding back! He calls his rival a "Pelele" (puppet, or wimp), someone who is all talk and no action. He paints himself as the authentic voice of the streets, saying he's always played there while his opponent is trying to get on mainstream radio: "Yo sonando siempre en la calle, tú 40 Principales" (I'm always playing in the street, you're on the Top 40).

Morad makes fun of his rival for needing a huge team—"Cuatro guitarrista' 17 que tienen orquesta" (Four guitarists, 17 who have an orchestra)—just to make a song that nobody plays at parties. He contrasts this with his own effortless style. The whole track is a challenge, with Morad asking "¿Dónde estás escondí'o?" (Where are you hiding?) and accusing the other guy of being a fake who has a gun but doesn't shoot. It's a confident, aggressive track that establishes Morad as the real deal and his opponent as nothing more than a puppet.
