Barracuda Lyrics in English by BoomDaBash, Jake La Furia, Fabri Fibra
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Barracuda by BoomDaBash from Italian to English.
Nuoto in un mare nero come la pece
I swim in a sea black as pitch
Noi siamo gli ultimi della nostra specie e tu invece
We are the last of our species and you instead
C'hai l'occhio spento
You have a dull eye
Migrekans
Migrekans
Ti vedo ma non sei reale, Avatar
I see you but you're not real, Avatar
Ho I denti dorati affilati come un barracuda
I have golden teeth sharp as a barracuda
Quando mastico uccido
When I chew I kill
Conto contanti e carati fra e lei balla nuda
I count cash and carats, bro, and she dances naked
Come in Maracaibo
Like in Maracaibo
Sangue e carne cruda
Blood and raw meat
Non c'è pace nel posto in cui vivo
There's no peace in the place where I live
La strada non è un buon motivo per essere Giuda
The street isn't a good reason to be Judas
Appeso a un ramo d'ulivo
Hung from an olive branch
È il triangolo delle Bermuda
It's the Bermuda Triangle
Da quando ero quattordicenne
Since I was fourteen
Se scrivessi una vita vissuta
If I wrote a life lived
Finirei un milione di penne
I'd finish a million pens
Megalodonte in un mare di squali
Megalodon in a sea of sharks
Noi tali e quali Jake e Boomdabash
We're just like Jake and Boomdabash
Rappo talmente blindato che foro i quintali come un kalash
I rap so armored that I pierce tons like a Kalash
Dimmi sangue caldo che mai ti fermi e ti fermerai
Tell me, hot blood, that you never stop and never will stop
Il mare calmo non ha mai fatto esperti sti marinai
A calm sea never made these sailors experts
Scrivo per riempirmi l'ego
I write to fill my ego
Con la mano di dio come Diego
With the hand of God like Diego
Non importa che tu non ti spezzi
It doesn't matter if you don't break
Mi va bebe pure se ti piego, zio
It's fine even if I bend you, bro
Nuoto veloce come un barracuda
I swim fast like a barracuda
In questo mare di squali, paura nessuna
In this sea of sharks, no fear
A pancia piena con la bocca chiusa
With a full belly and a closed mouth
Tu pesce piccolo, io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda
Barracuda, barracuda
Barracuda, barracuda
Tu pesce piccolo, io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda
Dicono aiutati che dio ti aiuta
They say help yourself and God will help you
Tu pesce piccolo io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda
Mo te fazzu la scola
Now I'll teach you a lesson
Mo te mandu alla scola
Now I'll send you to school
Mentre sta cunti la storia
While you're telling the story
Paya tutta nn'aura storia
It seems like a whole other story
E mentre te faci lu spiertu
And while you act smart
Invece amie l'autri me fanno la ola
Instead, others do the wave for me
Te spiegu addu stai, Salento State of Mind
I'll explain where you are, Salento State of Mind
Statte cittu nun picca
Be quiet for a bit
Quistu parla e poi dopu me clicca
This one talks and then clicks me
Ogne cosa face pe' ripicca
He does everything out of spite
Nu nni piace però poi retwitta
He doesn't like it but then retweets
Pesci piccoli senza la lisca
Little fish without bones
Pesci piccoli quai intra la bisca
Little fish here inside the gambling den
Troppi stannu quai sulla lista
Too many are here on the list
Osce ordinu frittura mista
Today I order mixed fried fish
Giru tranquillu scialla-la-la
I walk around chill, shalalala
E tu te stizzi (ra-ra-ra)
And you get annoyed (ra-ra-ra)
Perce te lassu senza nienti
Because I leave you with nothing
Osce pe tie nce lu Ramadam
Today for you there's Ramadan
Nu te sta bisciu appostu
I don't see you well
Comu stai comparema? Whatagwan?
How are you, my friend? Whatagwan?
Jake, Fibra e Boomdabash, Barracuda-da-da-dan
Jake, Fibra and Boomdabash, Barracuda-da-da-dan
Nuoto veloce come un barracuda
I swim fast like a barracuda
In questo mare di squali paura nessuna
In this sea of sharks, no fear
A pancia piena con la bocca chiusa
With a full belly and a closed mouth
Tu pesce piccolo io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda
I soldi rendono felici (eh si, eh)
Money makes people happy (oh yes, oh)
Pago cene e pranzi agli amici (eh, oh)
I pay for dinners and lunches for friends (eh, oh)
Vado a dormire quando voglio (buongiorno)
I go to sleep when I want (good morning)
Non mi interessa che ore sono (che ore sono?)
I don't care what time it is (what time is it?)
Conta solo quanto si vende
Only how much sells matters
Manco fosse un negozio di Gucci
As if it were a Gucci store
Poi so bene come ci si sente
Then I know well how it feels
Quando spengono le luci
When they turn off the lights
E dagli occhi ti escono fulmini
And lightning comes out of your eyes
Perché contano solo i numeri
Because only the numbers count
E noi che siamo stati gli ultimi
And we who were the last ones
Ora è bello non dover lavorare il lunedì
Now it's nice not having to work on Monday
Ero da solo senza una lira
I was alone without a lira
Tu non immagini i sacrifici
You don't imagine the sacrifices
Sono tornato più forte di prima
I came back stronger than before
Quindi pregate per i miei nemici
So pray for my enemies
Nuoto veloce come un barracuda
I swim fast like a barracuda
In questo mare di squali paura nessuna
In this sea of sharks, no fear
A pancia piena con la bocca chiusa
With a full belly and a closed mouth
Tu pesce piccolo, io barracuda, barracuda, barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda, barracuda, barracuda
Tu pesce piccolo, io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda
Dicono aiutati che dio ti aiuta
They say help yourself and God will help you
Tu pesce piccolo io barracuda
You little fish, I barracuda

Megalodonte — Megalodon
Megalodonte refers to the Megalodon, an extinct species of giant shark. It's an unusual and striking word to find in song lyrics, making it memorable.
In the song, the artist uses "Megalodonte in un mare di squali" (Megalodon in a sea of sharks) to metaphorically describe himself as the biggest and most dominant figure in a competitive environment. It conveys a sense of power and superiority, fitting the song's theme of being a formidable "barracuda" among smaller fish.
