Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chavalo Sencillo by Eslabon Armado from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Me la navego tranquilo
I cruise along calmly
Bien calmado no hago ruido
Very calm, I make no noise
Pero si me tienten prendo la cosa en caliente
But if they tempt me, I light the thing up quickly
Ruleteando con amigos
Cruising with friends
Quemándome un buen gallito
Smoking a good joint
Viejas quieren pegue tengo modo para hacerle
Girls want to hook up, I have a way to do it
Chorus 1
Ya se nota al inhalarle
It's already noticeable when inhaling
Que ando loco, pues le jale
That I'm crazy, well I pulled
Bien machin al leño café
Really hard on the brown log
En mi traste gramitos ya listo para el viaje
In my stash, grams already ready for the trip
Ojos rojos al mirarme
Red eyes when looking at me
Lentes Gucci pa' taparme
Gucci glasses to cover myself
Buenas vibras en los mares
Good vibes in the seas
Cuando baja el solecito siento en otra parte
When the sun goes down, I feel in another place
Bien relajado
Very relaxed
Verse 2
Soy un chavalo sencillo
I'm a simple guy
Conservado en lo mío
Focused on my own
De eso tengo en la mente pa' obtener billetes
That's what I have in mind to get money
Mi familia yo confío
I trust my family
Motor para seguir vivo
Engine to stay alive
Un san judas me protege del malo que viene
A Saint Jude protects me from the bad that comes
Chorus 2
Quemó llanta en bulevares
Burning rubber on boulevards
Se me escucha al pisarle
You hear me when I step on it
Voy volando en mi nave
I'm flying in my ride
En un SRT8 navego constante
In an SRT8, I cruise constantly
No soy ningún traficante
I'm not a trafficker
Vendo poco, no a lo grande
I sell a little, not big
Me retiro, que me canten
I retire, let them sing to me
Eslabon Armado, que este rollo no se acabe
Eslabon Armado, may this story not end
