Yo no tenía nada, y no es que ahora tenga
I had nothing, and it is not that now I have
Pero tengo más que ayer y la noche de antier
But I have more than yesterday and the night before yesterday
Me salieron bien las cuentas
The accounts went well
Varios años tras las rejas, ya salí y todo está bien
Several years behind bars, I'm out and all is well
Para los negocios sé usar la cabeza
For business I know how to use my head
Y la prepa terminé y dinero no miré
And I finished high school and I didn't look at money
Y me puse a cruzar merca
And I started to cross the market
Gabachas eran empresas de camiones que mandé
Gabachas were trucking companies that I commanded
Y de ahí pa'l real empecé a chambear
And from there for the real I began to chambear
Con la gente que anda trabajando acá
With the people who are working here
Un tiempo allá en California y otro tiempo en Culiacán
A time there in California and another time in Culiacán
Soy el mismo que miraron con su niño en Disneyland
I'm the same one you watched with your child at Disneyland
Y los que andan con uno son contados
And those who walk with one are counted
Pa' que todo siga saliendo bien
So that everything continues to go well
Puro Codiciado, loco
Pure coveted, crazy
Yo no cargo escuadra, yo cargo Beretta
I don't carry squad, I carry Beretta
Efectiva pa' tirar y en oro la bañé
Effective to throw away and I bathed her in gold
Y no ando ajustando cuentas
And I'm not settling accounts
Esa la saco en las fiestas pa' tirar, ahí traigo a tres
I take that out at parties to throw away, there I bring three
No vengo de un rancho pegado a la sierra
I do not come from a ranch attached to the mountains
En la cuidad yo me crie y en las canchas me ven
In the city I grew up and on the courts they see me
Donde se armaban las retas
Where the challenges were assembled
Tras de mi casa, la escuela, la primaria que cursé
Behind my house, the school, the elementary school that I attended
Y cómo olvidar a mi 'apá y mi 'amá
And how can I forget my 'apá and my 'ama
Ellos dos nacieron cerca de Culiacán
They were both born near Culiacán
Mi apellido es sinaloense y mochilas para estudiar
My last name is from Sinaloa and backpacks to study
Mis datos no se escucharon, no quiero publicidad
My data was not heard, I do not want advertising
