La primera vez apenas me gustó
The first time I barely liked it
fue por la nariz, por no decir que no
It was through the nose, not to say no
Que el no es de cobardes. Y a los dieciséis
That he is not for cowards. And at sixteen
se prueba cómo es de hondo el río con los dos pies
You can see how deep the river is with both feet
La segunda vez me fue gustando más
The second time I liked it more
Sentí su poder su sensación de paz
I felt his power his sense of peace
Y a los pocos meses me empecé a picar
And a few months later I started to itch.
Yo siempre pensé que lo podría controlar
I always thought I could control it.
Lo de dejarlo ya lo he intentado
I've already tried to leave it
más de una vez y más de cinco y más de diez
more than once and more than five and more than ten
Pero no hay forma no hay manera
But there is no way there is no way
con la mierda del caballo no hay quien pueda
With horse shit there is no one who can
olerla es meter los pies
To smell it is to put your feet in
Cuando no quedó ya nada que robarles
When there was nothing left to steal from them
me empecé a chutar delante de mis padres
I started kicking in front of my parents
pero me agobiaban venga a preguntar
but I was overwhelmed come and ask
Dinos hijo mío qué es lo que hemos hecho mal
Tell us, my son, what we have done wrong
Lo de dejarlo ya lo he intentado
I've already tried to leave it
más de una vez y más de cinco y más de diez
more than once and more than five and more than ten
Pero no hay forma no hay manera
But there is no way there is no way
con la mierda del caballo
with horse shit
no hay quien pueda
There is no one who can
Si estás 'enganchao' te quedan dos de dos
If you are 'hooked' you have two out of two left.
robar 'pa' comprar o venderla y sisar
stealing 'pa' buy or sell it and sisar
y las dos terminan antes o después
and both end sooner or later
con el culo roto y el sida en Carabanchel
with a broken ass and AIDS in Carabanchel
Lo de dejarlo
Leaving it
lo de dejarlo
Leaving it
