Monastery Lyrics in English by Ryan Castro, Feid
Enviciao is the colloquial, urban form of enviciado, meaning “addicted” or “hooked.”
Ryan Castro sings “¿Qué tú tienes que me tiene enviciao’?”—asking what she’s got that has him completely hooked on her. This vivid slang term expands the idea of addiction to intense attraction, making it a punchy, memorable word to learn.
"Monastery" throws you straight into the nightlife of Medellín, Colombia, driven by Ryan Castro and Feid. Right away, Ryan name-drops local geography like "Bajando por Palmas de camino pa'l Pobla" [Driving down Las Palmas avenue toward El Poblado], referencing the steep highway winding down into Medellín's most famous party district. The track revolves around a girl who drives him crazy, even if their relationship has no official label. He admits he bought her underwear and even a car ("Le compré un carro aunque ella no es mi novia" [I bought her a car even though she's not my girlfriend]), all while his ex burns with jealousy because he stole a kiss and serenaded her with "Lejanía" on Instagram stories.
The lyrics mix heavy Colombian street slang with designer names. The title itself comes from Monastery Couture, a luxury streetwear brand from Colombia that gets shouted out alongside Valentino sneakers, Moschino underwear, Burberry sets, and Dom Pérignon champagne. When Feid and Ryan boast that "hay niveles de niveles" [there are levels to this], they contrast cheap gossip with top-tier flexing. They dismiss rumors about her being "sata" [promiscuous] or "prepa" [a student who exchanges dates for money] for liking "whiskycito con bareta" [whiskey with weed], bluntly declaring that they are fully hooked on her ("baby, ¿qué tú tienes que me tiene enviciao'?" [baby, what do you have that's got me addicted?]). It is a cheeky, hedonistic reggaeton track about reckless spending, hotel linkups, and pure physical chemistry.
