The envious will say that I am in Mazatlán, Sinaloa
But they already gave me the Visa, carnal
Joaquinito, get off, old man
Health, carnal
Above Mazatlán, Sinaloa
Up the puddle, old man
And pure Grupo Firme, Eduin
Pure Coveted, couple
The dynamic duo, dogs
I said if you didn't change you were going to lose me
But you never listened to what I told you
And I said so many things that you didn't want to believe me
And you see that all my words were true
I said if you walked away you'd regret it
Because what leaves my life does not return
And that soon you would beg to kiss my lips
Now you see that, in the end, my luck changed
I told you so, but you never cared what I said
I knew that your lips would beg for my kisses
If I told you that when you thought of me your eyes would cry
In the end what I told you today has become a prophecy
And I told you that without me the happy days would not return
But you're already big enough to know what you choose
That my pride does not forgive and that you were going to regret it
If my mind does not fail me, listen to me well
I told you that too
And the one who warns is not a traitor, mamacita
Pure Coveted
And pure Grupo Firme, Eduin
And pure Music VIP, man
There you go, kid
Come on, old man
I told you so, but you never cared what I said
I knew that your lips would beg for my kisses
If I told you that when you thought of me your eyes would cry
In the end what I told you today has become a prophecy
I told you that without me the happy days would not return
But you're already big enough to know what you choose
That my pride does not forgive and that you were going to regret it
If my mind doesn't fail me
I told you that too

"Te Lo Dije" (I told you so) is a breakup song where the singer gets to be right, and he enjoys it. He warned her: "Dije que si no cambiabas ibas a perderme" (I said if you didn't change you'd lose me), and "lo que sale de mi vida ya no vuelve" (whatever leaves my life doesn't come back). Now she's the one missing him, and the chorus lists every prediction that came true, until "lo que te dije hoy se ha vuelto profecía" (what I told you has become prophecy today). There's a sting in "ya estás grandecita pa' saber lo que tú eliges" (you're a big girl now, old enough to know what you're choosing), and the song ends on a proverb worth learning: "el que avisa no es traidor" (whoever warns you isn't a traitor), roughly "don't say I didn't warn you".

Before any of that, the track opens like a party in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, with spoken shout-outs: "Salud, carnal" (cheers, brother), "Arriba el charco" (up with the puddle), and a joke that the haters will say he's stuck in Mazatlán "pero ya me dieron la Visa" (but they already gave me the visa). Carnal and viejo are Mexican slang for "bro" and "man", and pareja here means "partner". "Si la mente no me falla" (if my memory serves me) is another handy phrase: literally "if my mind doesn't fail me".
