Callejero soy
I'm streetwise
Nunca olvido de donde vengo
I never forget where I come from
Y le sigo dando gracias a Dios
And I keep thanking God
Porque sobreviví
Because I survived
Y sigo aquí
And I'm still here
Yo en la calle nací, vivo y muero
I was born on the street, I live and die
Callejero soy
I'm streetwise
Nunca olvido de donde vengo
I never forget where I come from
Seguiré campeando con lo mío a fuego
I'll keep fighting with my own fire
Yo en la calle nací, vivo y muero
I was born on the street, I live and die
William Omar Landrón con 36 se desquita
William Omar Landrón at 36 gets even
A mí sólo me juzga Dios y me perdona Toñita
Only God judges me and Toñita forgives me
Yo soy de la esquina, donde el chamaquito suyo capeaba
I'm from the corner, where the kid used to dodge his own
Y mientras la nota bajaba, yo la trabajaba
And while the note went down, I worked it
De la esquina, donde por 10 pesos se compra hipocresía
From the corner, where hypocrisy is bought for 10 pesos
Y a ganancia de dos, te lleva el policía
And with a profit of two, the police take you away
Donde por 500 sucios pesos, los panas se matan
Where for 500 dirty pesos, buddies kill each other
Y esperan a que caigas preso y hasta las doñas se clavan
And they wait for you to get arrested and even the ladies get involved
Donde no existe lealtad, respeto ni sentimiento
Where there's no loyalty, respect, or feeling
Dime tú: ¿qué hay de bonito en esta selva de cemento?
Tell me: what's beautiful in this concrete jungle?
Donde se pasa hambre y la educación es pobre
Where there's hunger and poor education
Y a los chamaquitos les corre jugar a ser gangster
And kids rush to play gangster
Señor Gobernador, yo sé que la culpa no es suya
Mr. Governor, I know it's not your fault
Y perdone la bulla, pero aquí no se vive mejor
And excuse the noise, but life isn't better here
Quizás, de donde yo soy, se fuma como es
Maybe where I'm from, they smoke as it is
Pero de donde usted viene se enhuelga hasta los pies
But where you come from, they wrap up even their feet
Señor Presidente, si corrección fuera eficiente
Mr. President, if correction were effective
Hubiese más ingenieros y menos delincuentes
There would be more engineers and fewer criminals
¡Que irónico Usted pensando en un conflicto bélico
How ironic You thinking about a war
Antes de ser lógico y reformar a su gente
Before being logical and reforming your people
Callejero soy
I'm streetwise
Nunca olvido de donde vengo
I never forget where I come from
Y le sigo dando gracias a Dios
And I keep thanking God
Porque sobreviví
Because I survived
Y sigo aquí
And I'm still here
Yo en la calle nací, vivo y muero
I was born on the street, I live and die
Callejero soy
I'm streetwise
Nunca olvido de donde vengo
I never forget where I come from
Seguiré campeando con lo mío a fuego

Yo en la calle nací, vivo y muero
I was born on the street, I live and die
Oye, la calle me costó un poco de to'
Listen, the street cost me a bit
Pana son las que me guindan, hombe no
Buddies are the ones who hang with me, man
Callejero yo, ya no, si se me dio
I'm streetwise, not anymore, if it was given to me
Y salí sin ningún rasguño del tintingo
And I came out unscathed from the brawl
Veterano de mil campañas
A veteran of a thousand campaigns
Que lo logró Gracias a Dios y a todos ustedes, que lo que hago les gustó
Who made it, thanks to God and all of you, who liked what I do
Es en serio: cárcel, cementerio o tirar todo el mundo al medio
It's serious: jail, cemetery, or throwing everyone in the middle
De traqueto a sapo es un cambio inmenso
From drug dealer to informant is a huge change
Yo que tú, como que lo pienso
If I were you, I'd really think about it
Detenidamente, antes que te sientes
Carefully, before you sit
En la silla de testigo contra tu gente
In the witness chair against your people
Witness protection. Identidad, no direction, you know
Witness protection. Identity, no direction, you know
Para que no te den dembow
So they don't give you a hard time
Asuma consecuencias papi
Face the consequences, daddy
Espere allá guardado o triste será su caso
Wait there hidden or your case will be sad
Y en tus zapatos, buche y tiempo mulato
And in your shoes, gut and mixed time
Meta cojones, así mismo, a lo macho
Show balls, just like that, like a man
Un ratico adentro, otro afuera
A little inside, a little outside
La prisión es parte de esta novela
Prison is part of this story
Para que te enteres
So you know
Para mí, calle sólo eres cuando te cojan los feos y no cooperes
For me, you're only street when the ugly ones catch you and you don't cooperate
No temblequees, no sapees
Don't shake, don't snitch
¿Entendiste ahora, nene?
Did you understand now, kid?

Y le sigo dando gracias a dios
