Lyrics

Tanto tiempo a pasado y sigo luchando
de los 20 no paso y sigo en el barrio
y eh mirado a muchos caer de la sima
los matan o los meten a la escuelita
jodido pero saco pa la tortilla
y yo sigo aqui
aqui sigo atendiendo mi «Tiendita…»
Mis amigos todos se fueron pa arriba
y ahora que tienen con que
ya ni se arriman
los miro pasar en sus trocas del año
y yo sigo en mi chachita circulando
y ahora que disque toman pura buchanans
y mientras que aqui hacemos rendir.
con un baso la cahuama…
Hay raza que se la lleva charoleando
presumen trabajar para un fulano
dicen estar al millon con todos ellos
y ellos mismos los entregan al gobierno
cuando les matan al jefe los contrarios
hay luego cambian de bandera
y hay andan lambiendole al otro bando…
(Y no te acabes Obregon, Sonora
hay te ca Tuti, Alex, Juanacas al Edwin)
Cuando apenas ya me andaba alibianando
me salieron con que habia un nuevo encargado
que si no pagaba plaza me ponian
y que el precio de la libra subirian
pal cochinero de llelo que sacaron
pero no señor tengo mi dignidad
jodido pero nunca andare de gato…
Y al final la «Tiendita» me la cerraron
por la limpia que hicieron aqui en el barrio
agusto trabajaba todo este tiempo
y estos llegan haciendo su cochinero
nomas se la llevan calentando plaza
y me robaron la clientela
y ahora que hace uno pa llenar la pansa…
No niego que lo que hago esta muy malo
pero en esta cricis no encuentras trabajo
y si encuentras no sale ni pa la renta
mucho menos pa salir a dar la vuelta
ni vendiendo droga sacas pa la leche
imaginen, imaginen trabajar como la gente…

Lyrics translation

So much time has passed and I keep fighting
from the 20 I do not pass and still in the neighborhood
and I watched many fall from the sima
they kill them or put them in school.
fucked but I take the omelette
and I'm still here
here I continue to attend my " shop…»
My friends all went up pa
and now they have with that
they don't even pull up anymore.
I watch them pass by on their exchanges of the year
and I'm still in my chachita circling
and now you dial take pure buchanans
and while here we make surrender.
with a base the cahuama…
There's a race that's been running around.
they're supposed to work for a guy.
they say they're a million with all of them.
and they themselves hand them over to the government
when the boss is killed by the opposites
there are then change flag
and there they are licking the other side…
(And don't finish Obregon, Sonora
there Te ca Tuti, Alex, Juanacas al Edwin)
When I was barely alibied out
I came up with that there was a new manager
that if I didn't pay for a place they would put me
and that the price of the pound would rise
pal cochinero of llelo they took out
but no sir I have my dignity
fucked but never go cat…
And in the end the "shop" closed me
because of the cleaning they did here in the neighborhood
agusto worked all this time
and these come making their piggy bank
they've been warming up the place.
and they stole my clientele
and now that makes one pa fill the belly…
I do not deny that what I do is very bad
but in this crisis you don't find work
and if you find no income or PA rent
much less going around
you don't sell drugs, you get milk.
imagine, imagine working like people…
