Mentiras Lyrics English Translation by Dharius
Hey, yo
Listen up
It’s El Clan Records
With DHA
Who? It’s Davo
I knew this day would come (Wu)
Many people told me I couldn’t (Na)
They said I wouldn’t amount to anything in life (Haha)
But they were lies, lies, lies (Once again)
I knew this day would come (Wu)
Many people told me I couldn’t (Na)
They said I wouldn’t amount to anything in life (Haha)
But they were lies, lies, lies (Yeah, once again)
I earned some money, then two, then three, and I got hooked (What?)
Added a couple of zeros, then multiplied them
They say I’m conceited (Haha), man, I don’t even know why
With the odds against me, I won, like it’s no big deal (Prr)
Because it’s known (Wu), if you carry it inside, it’s normal to hit hard (Haha)
Damn (What?), what the hell am I going to ask you for credit (Hahaha)
Many want to do it like me, but it doesn’t work for them (Yeah, yeah)
They made fun of my hustle (Hey, hey), and now there’s no one like me
I remember that yesterday they criticized what we do today (Haha)
Even though you copied it for tomorrow (Well)
Anyway, that’s in the past (Yeah)
Don’t even call me today (No), man, we’ll talk tomorrow – ah!
They said I wouldn’t make it
Put a little money here and put another in the piggy bank
They told lies, I made hip-hop
They had their hypocrisy, and my hip-hop grew
And they lost, lying, fallen like drugs in a raid
“If God wants, I’ll make it,” I said (Mm-hmm), and God did want it (Amen)
The days we pulled (Ah), to perform at concerts (Oh)
I’m still alive, of course, God still doesn’t want me dead
And for all the kids who think it’s not true (Hahahaha)
Ask Dharius about that time at the airport
If they say I’m making it up, then why should I tell them (What?)
How I escaped and what the cargo was
Not today, now I’m a rapper, not a villain anymore (Not anymore, not anymore)
The cops stop me for the weed (Haha)
The gun in the waistband of my pants (Ah-ah)
Wait, that was before, not anymore (Not anymore)
Today, I’m a rapper, not a villain anymore (I am, I am)
The cops stop me for the weed (Haha)
The gun in the waistband of my pants
Wait (I only have ten points to clarify)
First, I was one of the pioneers in this rap thing
I started doing it for fun, and then the money came
Second, I represent Mexico all over the world
Several tracks I dropped were a big success
Third, my verse has always been sincere
If a rhyme isn’t real, it goes straight to the trash
Fourth, any beat they put in front of me, I’ll crush it
Shoutouts to Sick Jacken, Güero Loco, and Fermín IV
Fifth, many wish to see me extinct today
And I’m still waiting for them at the end of the maze
Sixth, they can’t match my lyrics, they have no excuse
Keep trying with your contextless verses
Seventh, my style is original and legit
Pity the fool who underestimated me
Eighth, I’m always messed up when I record
Some blunts with C-Kan and some whiskey with MC Davo
Ninth, my flow is all-terrain
Every word I spit is loaded with venom
Tenth, those who talk crap with a terrible style
Next time, put in at least a little effort
Keep going, everything can be achieved
Don’t pay attention to those jerks who want to bring bad vibes
When you do things right, those who do them wrong envy you
Just keep moving forward and stay real
I knew this day would come (Wu)
Many people told me I couldn’t (Na)
They said I wouldn’t amount to anything in life (Haha)
But they were lies, lies, lies (Once again)
I knew this day would come (Wu)
Many people told me I couldn’t (Na)
They said I wouldn’t amount to anything in life (Haha)
But they were lies, lies, lies
Na
But they were lies, lies, lies
It’s Davo (C-Kan)
With DHA
It’s El Clan Records, uh-huh
But they were lies, lies, lies
