I remember that ass, pure Hollywood

I remember the roses in the coffin

Okay, I pray for the trigger away from my belly

I don't know how to sew that wound

I met the devil on that corner, at the end of the avenue

I swore to that life never to return

From the cabin to the Bima

Let's jump up

Don't think about living in Ivima

Nor sell fine things

If you want it you won't miss it

When I return to The Zone

And take a flight in a couple of hours

From Madrid to Barcelona

In fashion magazines

When crossing the roundabout

When I turn that corner

Other smell on my clothes

I go up and drop the bags

On the ground a glass

The Zone, The Zone

and there you are

Lying in the dark, half moon without light

and there you are

That now you have thought about the past and that you

I return to The Zone and you

and there you are

That where I have been, that where we are going and you

And there you are, and there you are

Like a dog lying in the street

With Tupac and 36 Chambers

Before, long before

From the park to be my only home

I had a thousand people at the dance

And I'm waiting for your airs

I went out for the crown

Soon I will return to The Zone

You wanted me to be the baddest

And I just be by your side

But, always so busy

I swear I'm going to change

When I return to The Zone

And take a flight in a couple of hours

From Madrid to Barcelona

In fashion magazines

When crossing the roundabout

When I turn that corner

Other smell on my clothes

I go up and drop the bags

On the ground a glass

The Zone, The Zone

and there you are

Lying in the dark, half moon without light

and there you are

That now you have thought about the past and that you

I return to The Zone and you

and there you are

That where I have been, that where we are going and you

And there you are, and there you are

"La Zona" is Recycled J thinking about going back to the neighbourhood he came from, and to the woman who is still there waiting. La Zona (the Zone) is his name for home turf. The first lines mix memories that don't belong together: "Recuerdo ese culo, puro Hollywood" (I remember that butt, pure Hollywood) right beside "Recuerdo las rosas en el ataúd" (I remember the roses on the coffin). Then "Conocí al demonio en esa esquina" (I met the devil on that corner) and "Juré a esa vida nunca volver" (I swore never to go back to that life).

There's a very Madrid detail in "No pienses vivir en el Ivima" (don't think about living in the Ivima): the IVIMA was the Madrid region's public housing agency, so he's saying he's aiming higher than council flats. The chorus is where it gets tender: he takes "un vuelo a par de horas, de Madrid a Barcelona" (a flight of a couple of hours, from Madrid to Barcelona), comes home smelling of "otra en mi ropa" (another woman on my clothes), and yet "Y allí estás tú" (and there you are). He even promises "Te juro que voy a cambiar" (I swear I'm going to change), which, after that line about the clothes, is a bit hard to believe.
