Mamá Me Preguntaba Lyrics in English Chris Lebron , Cosculluela

Mamá Me Preguntaba is a heartfelt street confession wrapped in smooth Latin R&B and urban swagger. Chris Lebrón, together with Puerto Rican rap icon Cosculluela, opens his diary to show us the tender tug-of-war between a son’s love for his mother and the risky hustle he’s chosen to escape poverty. The chorus recreates that universal kitchen-table moment: Mom asks where all this money suddenly came from, afraid her boy has become a callejero (street hustler). He answers with both pride and worry, promising that every late-night mission and stack of cash is really a shield meant to protect her from need.

Underneath the catchy melody lies a raw story of gratitude, guilt, and determination. The artists admit to “moving keys” and dodging the law, yet their biggest fear is not prison—it’s seeing their mother suffer. Spiritual references, bilingual wordplay, and powerful lines like “prefiero morir de pie que verte down on your knees” paint a picture of a son who walks dangerous roads so his mother can finally sleep in peace. The song is both a street anthem and a love letter, reminding listeners that behind many flashy successes there is often a humble promise made at home: “I’ll come back tomorrow, Mom, and you’ll never lack a thing.”
