Por El 5 Lyrics in English Fuerza Regida

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Por El 5 by Fuerza Regida from Spanish to English.
San Fernando Valley, where I was raised
A hundred pounds of weed in trash bags
It's crazy to be where I'm at
We started kicking doors, times were hard
Now everything changed, I got money for sure
We're the tough ones, they gotta see me strapped
I'm a product of the streets, bro, I'm from the hood
Here we do everything to get ahead
And I'm tough, bro, pull another bump
We're flying down the Five
In the Prius, black trash bags of fifty-five
The Louis Vuitton backpack stuffed full
The Centenario shines from far away
Stay sharp about who you let eat at your table
They just fill up with envy and the backstabs come
It doesn't affect me, I don't give a f*ck about a b*tch, let's run it
'Don't talk much, son,' my mother always advised
Better to be king of your silence than slave of your words
You look better quiet
We're flying down the Five
In the Prius, black trash bags of fifty-five
The Louis Vuitton backpack stuffed full
The Centenario shines from far away

SONG MEANING

“Por El 5” is a gritty, first-person snapshot of street ambition. Fuerza Regida walks us through his rise from San Fernando del Valle—hauling “cien libritas de motita” in black trash bags, speeding up Interstate 5 in a Prius—until the hustle finally pays off. The lyrics mix everyday realism (kicking in doors, stuffing a Louis Vuitton backpack) with symbols of new-found status, like a gleaming Centenario gold coin. It is a road-movie in three minutes, sound-tracked by corridos tumbados and fueled by risk, adrenaline, and quick cash.

Under the bravado lies a cautionary edge. The singer warns about fake friends who eat at your table then stab you in the back, and he repeats his mother’s advice: “Mejor ser rey de tu silencio que esclavo de tus palabras.” Success demands silence, loyalty, and resilience—qualities he claims as a “producto de la calle.” “Por El 5” is therefore more than a tale of trafficking; it is a survival manual set to music, celebrating street smarts while acknowledging the shadows that trail every fast dollar.
