No Mastico Culebras

I Don't Chew Snakes

No Mastico Culebras

If it's not going to benefit me, spare yourself the troubleSi no me va a aportar evitese la pena
Of coming over here, I don't chew snakesDe arrimarse pa acá, no mastico culebras
I bring time very measuredMuy medido traigo el tiempo
As to invest it in things that don't prosperComo para invertirlo en cosas que no prosperan

It's nice to talk about life thingsBonito es platicar de cosas de la vida
About dreams one has, also what you aspire toDe sueños que uno trae, también a lo que aspiras
About making good money to lighten the load for the whole familyDe agarrar un peso bueno pa poder alivianar a toda la familia

And you have to enjoy that the good times are comingY hay que disfrutar que hay viene lo bueno
I have faith in my God, times will changeTengo Fe en mi Dios, cambiarán los tiempos
And it's not out of presumption, but every day I feel more like a dogY no es por presunción, pero cada día me siento más perro

I enjoy good friends because I am a gentlemanGozo de buenos amigos porque soy un caballero

It was my turn to carry the sack with the stonesYa me tocó cargar el costal con las piedras
No one comes to tell me about battlingA mi de batallar nadie viene y me cuenta
You have to be perseverantHay que ser perseverante
And not back down in an opportunity and hit the jackpotY no rajarse en una chance y al gordo le pegas

Simple in greeting is more than enough for meSimple al saludar me es más que suficiente
To classify who truly is a good personPara catalogar quien en verdad si es gente
The world is very rottenEl mundo está muy podrido
That's why I don't take off my glasses with everyonePor eso es que no con todos me quito los lentes

And you have to get up early to not ask for luckY Hay que madrugar pa no pedir suerte
From the sky, buddy, it only rainsDel cielo carnal solamente llueve
The hardworking man always enjoys good skinsEl hombre trabajador siempre goza de buenas pieles

I'm fulfilling my dreams that it can be done, it can be doneAndo cumpliendo mis sueños de que se puede se puede
