Callejón 58 Lyrics in English Oscar Cortez
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Callejón 58 by Oscar Cortez from Spanish to English.
Siempre porto mi super de frente
I always carry my Super up front
Se que el barrio está caliente
I know that the hood is hot
Y me tengo que cuidar
And I have to watch my back
Las balas que cargo son contadas
The bullets that I carry are counted
18 empolvadas listos para detonar
18 dusted rounds ready to detonate
Siempre la porto con tiro arriba
I always carry it with a round up top
Es la historia de mi vida, la historia de un carnal
It's the story of my life, the story of a homie
Hay que darles de que hablar
We have to give them something to talk about
Un escudo en mi brazo armado
A shield on my armed arm
Un cholo que esta tatuado
A tattooed cholo
Muchos me han de criticar
Many must criticize me
En el mapa navego Sur-Centro y yo vengo desde adentro
On the map I navigate South-Central and I come from within
Ahí empece yo a chambear
That's where I started to work
Por el callejón 58 portaba mi 38
Down Alley 58 I carried my .38
Y al contrario hacía temblar
And I made the enemy tremble
Muy bien se han de recordar
They must remember very well
Condados, ya sean federales
Counties, even federal ones
Me han cerrado barandales
They have closed the bars on me
Prisiones ya fui a pisar
I've already stepped into prisons
Máxima seguridad de alerta
Maximum security on alert
Pues las lleves de las rejas yo también me fui a ganar
Because I also went and earned the keys to the bars
Localicen el penal de Tracy
Locate the Tracy penitentiary
Donde empezó aquella letra
Where that letter began
Mafia que fue a controlar
A mafia that went to take control
Claves que no entenderán
Codes that they won't understand
Varios homies por ser vagabundos
Several homies for being vagabonds
Ya se fueron de este mundo
Have already left this world
A un mucho mejor lugar
To a much better place
Que descanse en paz mi compa solo
May my homie Solo rest in peace
Bien conocido en el bolo
Well known in the bolo
El valle te ha de extrañar
The valley will surely miss you
Pocas amistades verdaderas
Few true friendships
Los amigos de adeveras
The real friends
Aquí tienen su lugar
Have their place here
Mi mano le he de brindar
I will offer my hand
Soy un vato que esta apalabrado
I'm a dude that has given my word
De ese barrio muy mentado
From that much-talked-about neighborhood
De Sur-Centro a Culiacán
From South-Central to Culiacán
Esta va pa'l Joe desconocido
This goes to the unknown Joe
Que esta limpiando el camino
That is clearing the path
Amistades del penal
Friendships from the pen
Por el callejón 58 portaba mi 38
Down Alley 58 I carried my .38
Y al contrario hacia temblar
And he made the enemy tremble
Se despide este carnal
This homie says goodbye
