Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Novena by Eladio Carrion from Spanish to English.
Yo lo arriesgué todo, uoh-oh
I risked everything, uoh-oh
Para que no me falte nada, yeah
So I don't lack anything, yeah
Nos dieron de codo', vinimos del lodo
They gave us the elbow, we came from the mud
Antes dormía con una fourty bajo la almohada
I used to sleep with a forty under the pillow
Yo lo arriesgué todo, uoh-oh
I risked everything, uoh-oh
Para que no te falte nada, yeah
So you don't lack anything, yeah
Nos dieron de codo', vinimos del lodo
They gave us the elbow, we came from the mud
Antes dormía con una forty bajo la almohada, yeah, yeah
I used to sleep with a forty under the pillow, yeah, yeah
Otro enemigo pa' la lista, pues, pues a la fila, n***a
Another enemy for the list, well, get in line, n***a
Dime qué tú haces, ¿está' fronteándome? Cuando tú haces fila, n***a
Tell me what you're doing, are you fronting on me? When you wait in line, n***a
Nunca Reggi, siempre gasolina, pregúntale a tu dealer, n***a
Never Reggi, always gasoline, ask your dealer, n***a
Los pulmone' los tengo en fuego, como los de Godzilla, n***a
My lungs are on fire, like Godzilla's, n***a
Se equivocan como el nene, sin saber que yo no vacilo, n***a
They make mistakes like a kid, not knowing I don't hesitate, n***a
La sin licencia es la que te silencia, la tengo en la mochila, n***a
The one without a license is the one that silences you, I have it in my backpack, n***a
Te pones mis zapatos por un día y tú te fatiga', n***a
You put on my shoes for a day and you get tired, n***a
Pasado tan oscuro que en mi mente ya no me caben más giga', n***a
Past so dark that my mind can't fit any more gigs, n***a
Ni un buenos días, n***a
Not even a good morning, n***a
Todo el mundo pide, solo pide
Everyone asks, just asks
Favore', los cumplo y después ni escriben
Favors, I fulfill them and then they don't even write
Solo dicen, 'Dale, papi, estamos hittin'', yeah
They just say, 'Go ahead, daddy, we're hitting it', yeah
Ellos dan solamente si reciben
They only give if they receive
Si no es para eso, ni me escriben
If it's not for that, they don't even write to me
Yo lo arriesgué todo, uoh-oh
I risked everything, uoh-oh
Para que no me falte nada, yeah
So I don't lack anything, yeah
Nos dieron de codo', vinimos del lodo
They gave us the elbow, we came from the mud
Antes dormía con una fourty bajo la almohada
I used to sleep with a forty under the pillow
Yo lo arriesgué todo, uoh-oh
I risked everything, uoh-oh
Para que no te falte nada, yeah
So you don't lack anything, yeah
Nos dieron de codo', vinimos del lodo
They gave us the elbow, we came from the mud
Antes dormía con una forty bajo la almohada, yeah, yeah
I used to sleep with a forty under the pillow, yeah, yeah
