Té De Canela Lyrics in English by Alemán
Ponte verga is a very strong and informal Mexican slang phrase that literally translates to "put on dick." However, its actual meaning is closer to "get your shit together," "get tough," or "man up."
In the context of Alemán's song, it's a raw and direct call to action, urging listeners to be strong, resilient, and ready to face challenges. It's a powerful expression of street wisdom and determination, reflecting the song's gritty and motivational tone.
Alemán's "Té De Canela" is a chill yet determined track that feels like a personal mantra. He's looking for a love that won't bring him pain, asking for "Un amor para que no me duela" [A love so it doesn't hurt me]. There's a sense of seeking guidance and leaving his mark on the world, wanting "luz para esta vela" [light for this candle] and declaring "Universo, dejo mi estela" [Universe, I leave my trail]. It's about staying focused and resilient, even when things are wild, as he says, "Vengo centrado, estoy de pie" [I come centered, I'm on my feet].
He's all about the hustle with his crew, aiming for success and remembering his friends, even those in prison, with a heartfelt "Te extraño, Pachón" [I miss you, Pachón]. Despite the craziness of life, "Un loquerón, eso siempre" [A crazy thing, that always], he's here to stay, living and breathing with a powerful "Vivo, respiro, amén" [I live, I breathe, amen]. It's a song about chasing money, living life to the fullest, and remembering his roots, all wrapped up in the comforting image of cinnamon tea.
