Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Salió Caro by Fuerza Regida from Spanish to English.
A lo mejor salió caro salir del lugar en el que estaba
Maybe leaving that place came at a high price
A lo mejor nomas yo les pague las broncas que me achacaban
Maybe I alone paid for the beef they pinned on me
Pensaron que con eso me amansaron yo deje gente encargada
They thought that would tame me, but I left my people in charge
Guerreros van de frente no separan esperaban mi llegada
Warriors charge straight, don’t break, they were waiting for me
Mi nombre Rafael Caro Quintero del que tanta gente hablaba
My name’s Rafael Caro Quintero, the guy everybody talked about
28 Años me tuvieron cautivo imagínense que planeaban
I was held 28 years, just picture what they had cooking
Las piezas en mi ajedrez cambiaron la estrategia y la jugada
The pieces on my board shifted, the game plan changed
El negocio está bien estructurado las rutas ya bien marcadas
The biz is solid, the routes already locked in
Extrañando mi caballo y mí rancho la sierra de madrugada
I miss my horse, my ranch, the sierras at dawn
Mucho más el estado de Jalisco y uno que otro camarada
Even more, Jalisco state and a few buddies
Voy a repetir yo soy Rafa Caro y allá por la noria yo nací fui criado
I’ll say it again, I’m Rafa Caro, born and raised out in La Noria
Cuando estuve ausente deje mí legado Quintero Payan y también los Caro
While I was gone I left my legacy, Quintero Payán and the Caros
