TENDIDO Lyrics in English Tito Double P , Gabito Ballesteros

Home / Lyrics Translation / Tito Double P / TENDIDO

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song TENDIDO by Tito Double P from Spanish to English.

I take out the fire and give fire to the poison

I get in the car and put on a good corrido

I remember companions that left

It was their time or they fell asleep, but that's how it is

Tinted, nothing can be seen inside

I open the nail with the Glock plus some money

I have a badge, if they stop me I take them out quickly

If they are from the water, I don't investigate, better I speed up

And it sounds, the girl calls me, that I invited her a drink

That she is bored and the boyfriend is on the other side

Here goes mine, right now I'm free

I went down without imagining it was a setup

Hey Tito!

Come on, old man

Pedal to the floor, speed over 200

With two stops, the pharmacy and then to the store

Well tuned, the stereo sounding loud

I turn off the radio and report sick to work

And it sounds, the girl calls me that is waiting for me

That she is ready and the boyfriend hasn't checked in

Here I go, babe

In fact, here I come arriving

I was caught off guard, well arriving they shot me down

SONG MEANING

Tendido drops the listener straight into a high-octane night on Mexico’s highways. The narrator lights a cigarette, cranks up a corrido, and hits the gas while riding with tinted windows, a Glock, and cash in the dash. Every detail – from remembering fallen friends to dodging police checkpoints – paints the picture of someone living on the edge, where adrenaline and danger mix with a swaggering sense of invincibility.

Just when it seems like the night might turn into a carefree rendezvous with a flirtatious caller, the story takes a sharp turn. The protagonist races to meet the woman, only to discover too late that her invitation is a setup. Betrayal rings louder than the stereo, and he is left “tendido” – lying on the ground, shot down by an ambush he never saw coming. The song captures the thrill and the tragic cost of a life that runs on speed, risk, and blurred loyalties.
