Home / Lyrics Translation / Hermanos Figueroa / Buen Ejemplo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Buen Ejemplo by Hermanos Figueroa from Spanish to English.

It's true that I'm doing things right

Here we keep moving forward

My team is classy people, hustlers too

The trick is to have stamina

But not everything is rosy

Here you see it all

In this life I also did things

That I'm not proud of

Smoke to the lungs and through the nose

Other things keep going in

I can't cover the sun with one finger here

The powder works miracles

Society's gonna judge us

You'll forgive me

If I'm not giving a good example

Clique sh*t

Don't try this, I'm no role model at home

Even though we're going up

The habits I carry are to relax

And turn your speakers up

A hit to escape for a while

From this hurried world

The vice consumes my steps

But don't look at me so weird

It's easy to misinterpret what I do

Because I'm in my craziness

But in the end, the wind blows in my favor

Because the intention is good

The mind is twisted

I'm gonna cook

I'll see you there at work

A Good Example

For those who know the deal

Herencia de Patrones

Just vibe wit' it

SONG MEANING

Buen Ejemplo is a raw, modern corrido that pulls back the curtain on life in the fast lane. Hermanos Figueroa teams up with Herencia de Patrones and Esteban Gabriel to paint an honest picture of ambition: they are “haciendo las cosas bien” and climbing higher with a tight-knit crew, yet the road is lined with vices, late-night smoke, and the ever-present judgment of society. The narrator admits he is no role model, but he refuses to hide the darker shades of his reality; instead, he owns them, using music and a quick escape “por la nariz” to keep pace in a pressure-cooker world.

Beneath the swagger lies a surprisingly reflective heart. The lyrics juggle pride in hard-won success with regret over questionable choices, reminding listeners that life is rarely black-and-white. Even if “el buen ejemplo no estoy dando,” the intention is ultimately positive: stay loyal, work hard, and let the wind blow in your favor while the speakers blast. It is a track that invites you to vibe, acknowledge your flaws, and keep moving forward, no apologies needed.
