Falso Lyrics in English Óscar Maydon

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Falso by Óscar Maydon from Spanish to English.
If you're down, nobody here pays attention to you
If you're up, fakes surround you
You lend them a hand, they swear that they love you
They don't need you anymore, and they talk sh*t
Poor people's life in a rich world
They say they're 'Lions' and they leave you on read
Me with no money, I kissed your girl
You with millions, you lick my boots
Yeah, we've already seen you
Rockstar life on Instagram
You can buy thousands of things
Your f*cking style is like a girl's
Lots of designer
But money doesn't buy the flow
You're missing the hood, kid
Six eight six, pure chicalón
And his buddy Óscar Maydon
I'm not crying, I'm just confirming for you
That arrogance is not my type at all
There's thousands of stars in the sky
Every night, they fall and we see them
You buy lovers, friendships too
Tell me, buddy, what is it that you do
When they leave you, sad and empty
That without a peso, you're not their friend
Poor people's life, in a rich world
They say they're 'Lions' and they leave you on read
Me with no money, I kissed your girl
You with millions, lick my boots
Yeah, we've already seen you
Rockstar life on Instagram
You can buy thousands of things
Your f*cking style is like a girl's
Lots of designer
But money doesn't buy the flow
You're missing the hood, kid
Six eight six, pure chicalón
And up with Mexicali, man
And let's head to the warmth, buddy Joel
Right? buddy Chacho
Go on, tell him
If you're down, nobody here pays attention to you
If you're up, fakes surround you
You lend them a hand, they swear that they love you
They don't need you anymore, and they talk sh*t

SONG MEANING

Óscar Maydon’s “Falso” is a fiery wake-up call to anyone who confuses money with authenticity. Over swaggering corridos tumbados guitars, the Mexican singer vents about climbing the social ladder only to discover that the higher you go, the faker the company. He contrasts two worlds:

  • “pobres en un mundo rico” (poor people in a rich world) versus Instagram “rockstars” who flaunt designer labels.
  • Real barrio “flow” versus empty luxury that “no compra el flow.”

At its heart, the track is a lesson in self-worth. Maydon reminds us that friends who disappear when the cash does were never friends at all, and that true style comes from street cred, not price tags. It is a cheeky, empowering anthem perfect for shouting along whenever you need to brush off the braggers and stay true to your roots.
