The vulture knows that the lion will palm before the lion

Imposing your truth does not give you reason

We started on the street as the fifth step

I sneaked into the delivery of your prize and... I stole your award

You're going to rain sticks for braggart

I impart righteousness, I am King Solomon

That tripi didn't make me blind, I increased my vision

raised my plane of consciousness to another dimension

It was so beautiful before this pressure

but without pressure the chicken does not hatch

The subject can't fuck with Pharaoh

From the throne in this the rightful male heir

I destroy what I love most by condition

reminds me of that story of "The Frog and the Scorpion&quot

Look, I didn't want to do it but I had no choice

And even knowing that I would drown you also key the sting

I will kill myself when the passion is over

You will begin to value me when my death

I only tell what I live

No trap or cardboard

Shining every time I write became tradition

There are those who welcome my hand seeking their salvation

but I am condemned' from the day of my creation

I do not consume for pleasure, I do it for self-harm

That life gives me sticks, even if it hurts, gives me inspiration

I'm going for the one, and not out of obsession

but because who the fuck remembers the runner-up?

I'm the man of the month, the saint of his devotion, the tension

with the soundtrack of Jaws

You've seen a lot of drama and a lot of fiction movies

You are throwing beef for fame and for the million

You divided the roles without auditioning

But I arrive and draw the curtain, the function ends

Did you like this lyrics translation?

defunción — demise / death

Defunción translates to "demise" or "death". While it's a serious word, it's not commonly found in popular song lyrics, making it stand out as unique and thought-provoking.

In the song, DELAOSSA uses it to express a dark and cynical view of recognition: "Empezaréis a valorarme cuando sea mi defunción" (You will start to value me when it is my demise). This line suggests a commentary on how artists are often more appreciated after they are gone, adding a layer of depth and social critique to the lyrics.

DELAOSSA and J.Mood really bring the heat in "La Función"! This track is all about ambition, the grind, and proving yourself in the music game. DELAOSSA kicks things off by saying he's always one step ahead, like a vulture knowing the lion's fate, and he's not afraid to take what's his: "me colé en la entrega de tu premio y... te robé el galardón" [I snuck into your award ceremony and... I stole your award]. He sees himself as a king, dealing justice and having a heightened vision, almost like a prophet.

But it's not all easy. He talks about the intense pressure, comparing it to a chick needing to break out of its shell: "sin presión el pollo no sale del cascarón" [without pressure, the chick doesn't leave the shell]. There's a darker side too, where he admits to self-sabotage, even hurting what he loves most, like the scorpion stinging the frog. He's driven by a need to be number one, because "¿Quién coño se acuerda del subcampeón?" [Who the hell remembers the runner-up?]. He sees a lot of fake drama in the industry, and he's here to end it all, declaring, "llego yo y echo el telón, termina la función" [I arrive and drop the curtain, the show ends].
