Verse 1
Las cosas que mi gente quiere
The things that my people want
Son las cosas que siempre he querido
Are the things that I've always wanted
Una copita pa' brindar y otras dos pa' los dos que vienen contigo
A little drink to toast and two more for the two that come with you
Los que no me subían a internet vacilando de amigo
The ones who wouldn't post me online flexing as friends
Ahora que nos ponen la alfombrita roja vienen conmigo
Now that they roll out the little red carpet they come with me
Chorus 2
Me maten si no pueden entrar
Kill me if they can't get in
Me muera, no les puedo fallar
I'd rather die, I can't let them down
Yo sin esta gente, ¿pa' qué cojones quiero pasar?
Without these people, why the f*ck would I want to get in?
Me maten si no pueden entrar
Kill me if they can't get in
Me muera, no les puedo fallar
I'd rather die, I can't let them down
Yo sin esta gente, ¿pa' qué cojones quiero pasar?

Verse 2
En la vida nos pensamos que la gloria es el dinero
In life we think that glory is money
Pero, pero nos equivocamos nuestra gente es lo primero
But, but we're wrong, our people come first
Y el pibe de la puerta dice que somos muchos
And the guy at the door says we're too many
Hemos vení'o como seis Carmona y seis más con Pucho
We showed up like six Carmonas and six more with Pucho
Y el pibe de la puerta dice que somos muchos
And the guy at the door says we're too many
Hemos vení'o como seis Carmona y seis más con Pucho
