Verse 1
Real G4 Life, baby
The real movement
Guiding the new generations
The madmen have arrived, a lot of drug trafficking in the tropics
Real G4 Life, the movement remains solid
Kicking the asses of a couple of motherf*ckers who are nothing
In your speakers, a real badass is playing
Native of Puerto Rico where the vibe is something else
We don't forget the parties of Vigilio or Barbosa
Straight from Bayamón, the most powerful mafia
Bayamón is a Municipality in Puerto Rico
Real G4 Life forever, in the hotspot is where the fun happens
Candela, usually 'candle', can be PR slang for hotspot where drugs are sold
Have a great time, in this paradise you find everything
A little seed of culture on Sundays in the bikes
And we're always together, the demented and the crazies
Because this is our neighborhood thing
We enter shooting, it's been many years proving
On the street, they know who continues killing
The thugs are busy, the crazy hoes with El Chivo
Tomorrow is unknown, but today we're on fire
I have a great time with all the babes and street gangsters
That you're a demon, I already found out
You like the f*ckery, and you know that I'm street-smart
Here, we only scheme with the leaders
Chorus 1
For my people from the neighborhood
For my people from the housing projects
For my crew of hitmen
Real G4 Life forever
For my people from the neighborhood
For my people from the housing projects
For my crew of hitmen
Hey PR, damn, I love you
Verse 2
The grandson of Miña, raised in BH, Villa, and La Perla
As a child, in church I stole all the offerings
The hood or the housing projects, that's my thing
Like Bryce Harper, always with the joints lit up
Bryce Harper is an American professional baseball player for Philadelphia Phillies
In the spot with the crew, every day in the hustle
Or: In the corner where we sell drugs with the crew, hustling every day
Dreaming of being big and avoiding the ugly
From grams to the GRAMMYs, singing at the Choliseo
'Choliseo' or choli, is the biggest indoor arena in Puerto Rico dedicated to entertainment
What? Hey PR, being from here is my greatest trophy
Chorus 2
For the babes and the street gangsters
For my humble, fine and cool people
A street thug I will always be
To all the thugs, to all the gangsters
Interlude
Man, that's what I grew up listening to, man, since I was a kid
Arca, De La, Ñengo
Man, being here feels damn great, for real
From the heart
Chorus 2
For my people from the neighborhood
For my people from the housing projects
For my crew of hitmen
Verse 3
Wow, what a badass I've become
I have plenty of reasons to say that I'm blessed
I understand that they envy me, with certainty I say it
If I swear to you there are times that even I can't handle myself
And I'm still the same
The bad boy singer, rolling up Portobello inside this Wood
The current in person, I'm going to give them the light
My own heart didn't kill me, are you going to kill me?
Arcangel suffered a heart attack on September 16, 2019
They have to suck my d*ck
I already have it, there's nothing they have to give me
Yesterday, I started grinding with this swag
And guess what? I had to stop
She wanted to have fun, and I brought her to PR
I took her to the neighborhood to shoot with the AR
In the Hellcat, a spin with a trapstar
The movie is real, not Disney or Pixar
I took her to Miramar to look at the sea
For her to smoke Portobello with me inside the car
In the jet, all set, the internet in the clouds
Having breakfast in the air, toast and an omelet
Verse 4
Man, and I came from the hood, that's why my music is always for the hood
And I'll be grateful for life because this was the only thing that I dreamed of
Inspiring the kids, putting pressure on the elders
I always had God close, that's why I've come far
Veteran and rookie, I give myself advice
I'm not the goat, I'm The Bunny
Cabra = Goat = G.O.A.T = Greatest Of All Time
Man, the best
Roberto Clemente, Albert Pujols
Roberto Enrique Clemente Walker was a Puerto Rican professional baseball player. José Alberto Pujols Alcántara is a Dominican-American former professional baseball player.
Maradona and Messi in soccer
Maradona and Messi are famous Argentine soccer / football players
But I'm the new star, contracts like Sugar and Lindor
Edwin Diaz (aka Sugar Diaz) and Francisco Lindor are baseball players with big contracts
Without ceasing to be the same, because
Money doesn't make you, I learned that
I know a couple who are in trouble
And they're not more on fire than Jeff Bezos
Or: And they're not less than Jeff Bezos
I don't judge anyone, I know that I shouldn't
But I wish everyone was humble like Bebo
I'm afraid of heights
That's why being so high sometimes scares me
I miss those days with Eladio in Las Justas
Las Justas is a sports week in the month of April where different universities in Puerto Rico compete
Both of us made it, life isn't so unfair
My respect to those who hustle and always find a way
The boys are busy, so don't show off
For the talent scouts looking for another Bad Bunny
Another like me, in the next century
My name goes to the museums, goes to the books
I'm the star of my island, that's why I shine
Don't talk to me with votes, PR is my crew
Thanks once again for loving me so much
Travelling the whole world, but I always return to my neighborhood
Everyone knows that I always sing to you
That I'm still the same
Who used to sit on grandma's lap
Who prefers to sing for free in Loiza than at Coachella
In December 2022, Bad Bunny and Arcangel performed a surprise free performance on the roof of a gas station on Calle Loiza
Thanks to God, I fulfilled everything that I dreamed of in school
Thank God for putting on my path
Jan, Noah, and Gabriela
Jan is a friend and manager of Bad Bunny. Noah is the CEO of his record label Rimas. Gabriela is an ex lover
That's why I don't ask for much anymore when I go to bed
May God give me health, 'cause I'll do the rest
Yes, amen, 'cause I'll do the rest
Because nobody knows when the sun will set
I'd like to forever hug Benito Isabel
Always be there for Bernie and for Bysael
Bernie Martínez Ocasio and Bysael Martínez Ocasio are brothers of Bad Bunny
Learn, grow, mature, grow old
Have confidence like Mason from the three
Nate Mason is a basketball player
No, no, no, that was Gabriel
God bless you
Lyrics and Translations Licensed & Provided by LyricFind
"ACHO PR" feels like a giant block party where Bad Bunny, Arcángel, De La Ghetto, and Ñengo Flow grab the mic to toast the island that made them. Over a hard-hitting reggaeton beat, they paint Puerto Rico as a place of unstoppable swagger and deep community pride: from Bayamón to La Perla, from the caseríos to the clubs. Each verse mixes street-smart bravado with affectionate shout-outs to local hotspots, childhood memories, and the Real G4 Life legacy, reminding listeners that the barrio spirit is the fuel behind their global success.
Beneath the boastful punchlines, the artists slip in gratitude, faith, and a promise to uplift the next generation. Bad Bunny reflects on leaping from “gramos a los GRAMMY,” yet insists he is still the kid who used to dream big in church pews. The song’s real victory lap is emotional: a celebration of making it out while never leaving home behind. "ACHO PR" is both a victory chant and a love letter that says, in true Boricua slang, Acho, Puerto Rico, ¡te quiero!
