Un Convoy Lyrics in English by Natanael Cano

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Convoy by Natanael Cano from Spanish to English.
Un convoy de cuatro carros
A convoy of four cars
El terreno patrullado, y pura gente del señor
The terrain patrolled, and only the boss's people
De la plaza trae control
The plaza's under control
Cómo olvidar ese día, por los radios ahí se oía
How could we forget that day, on the radios you could hear
La cosa se calentó, alisten el equipón
Things got hot, get the heavy gear ready
En chinga nos activamos, pa' la capi nos jalamos
We get f*cking moving fast, we head for the capital
Venimos a arremangar, órdenes del jefe Iván
We came to throw down, orders from boss Iván
La vida nos la jugamos, estamos bien preparados
We gamble our lives, we're well prepared
No nos vamos a rajar, aquí respetan Culiacán
We won't back down, here they respect Culiacán
¡Ea!
Yeah!
Y bien jalados, viejones
All geared up, fellas
Puro corrido tumbado
Pure corrido tumbado
Navegamos por los ranchos, todo está bien controlado
We cruise through the ranches, everything's well under control
Y el apoyo está al millón, saludazos al señor
And support's at a million, big shout to the boss
Chalecos y rifles largos, el casco tomó soldados
Vests and long rifles, helmets on soldiers
El equipo belicón, no la piensan, son de acción
The war team, they don't think twice, they're all action
Para que estén enterados, no se enreden, somos varios
So that you're informed, don't get twisted, we're many
Andamos con el tostón, voy al frente, ando al tentón
We roll with the .50, I'm up front, feeling my way
Nivel siete la blindada, protección para las balas
Level seven armor, protection from bullets
En Tacoma me han de ver y por La Rosca siempre al cien
They'll see me in a Tacoma and at La Rosca always full throttle
¡Ea!
Yeah!
Ahí quedamos, viejones
That's where we leave it, fellas

Get ready for a high-octane ride through the Sinaloan countryside! In “Un Convoy,” Mexican trailblazer Natanael Cano paints a vivid scene of four armored trucks rolling out under the command of “el señor” and the feared jefe Iván. Over pulsating corrido tumbado guitars, the singer describes how these loyal gunmen patrol their territory, answer rapid-fire radio calls, and speed toward Culiacán whenever trouble sparks. It’s a snapshot of life inside a cartel convoy, where bulletproof vehicles, rifles, and tactical vests are everyday gear and backing down is never an option.

Beneath the swagger, the song also highlights the crew’s strict code of honor: respect the boss, control the plaza, and protect the team at all costs. By mixing street-level storytelling with modern trap influences, Cano invites listeners to glimpse the adrenaline, camaraderie, and risks that define this underground world—offering both a gritty narrative and a fresh twist on Mexico’s traditional corrido tradition.
