Listo Para Morir Lyrics in English by santa rm

Ultratumba literally translates to "beyond the grave" or "the afterlife". It's a dramatic and evocative word that immediately grabs attention, suggesting something supernatural or a return from death.

In the song, Santa RM uses it to assert his resilience and comeback in the rap scene: "Dicen que había muerto más volví del ultratumba" (They say I had died but I returned from beyond the grave). This powerful imagery makes it a memorable and unique word choice, highlighting his enduring presence despite critics.

Get ready to dive into the mind of Santa RM with "Listo Para Morir" [Ready to Die]! This track is a powerful, no-holds-barred look at his journey in rap, from humble beginnings to facing down his critics.

He kicks things off by taking us back to when he started at 13, rapping "por gusto" [for pleasure] before fame or anything else. He makes it clear he's self-taught, saying "Nadie le enseñó a rapear, yo siempre fui autodidacta" [Nobody taught me to rap, I was always self-taught]. He talks about growing up in Nogales and Obregón, freestyling with friends, and playing for tiny crowds, contrasting it with his current success: "Hoy más de 100 quisieran abrir el show de este hombre" [Today more than 100 would like to open this man's show]. Santa RM is blunt about his place, admitting he's not the best rapper in his country or even his city, but he doesn't care because the only one who surpasses him is Omega, who's in his own group. The chorus, "Estoy listo para morir / Y si el pueblo lo reclama que me crucifiquen" [I'm ready to die / And if the people demand it, let them crucify me], is a bold statement of defiance. He's ready for whatever comes, but warns, "Más si bajo de esta cruz, no van a tocar mi ala / Yo no perdono el que la hace me la paga" [But if I come down from this cross, they won't touch my wing / I don't forgive, whoever does it pays me back]. He also calls out his critics, challenging them to make rap themselves instead of just making memes. It's a raw, honest, and intense track where Santa RM lays it all out, showing he's not afraid to face his haters or even death itself.
