Calle, Calidad y Conga

Street, Quality, and Conga

Calle, Calidad y Conga

From a young age, you can see the hustle hereDesde la corta edad se ve la posta acá
From that gate over there comes the beat, and goodbyeDe ese portón pa allá viene la comba y chau
You want some flavor, mom? We got plenty, and moreQuerés sazón mamá, tenemos a full y hay más
Kids who are more trap than that ghostly soundNenes que son más trap que ese sonsón fantasma
Unintentionally, I made it through the roughSin querer me hice solo a los ponchazos mal
I walked around and saw everything, but the lock, nothingCamine y vi de todo pero el candado nada
I saw trends, cash, and gold in those hustlers, hustlersVi tendencia, plata y oro en esos vagos, vagos
I led, idol of the bad boys, bad boysLideré, ídolo de los más malo', malo'

The honest weight of hard workEl honesto peso del laburo
The cash from the one who pulls the cartEl morlaco del que tira el carro
The one who bites the bone with the hustleEl que muerde el hueso con el curro
The one who stands tall and makes a bankEl que pone el pecho y hace un banco
The one who turned two bucks into a futureEl que con dos pesos hizo el futuro
The one who bites hard in white glovesEl que muerde grueso en guante blanco

Everyone's saving cheese for that jerkTodos apartan queso pa ese turro
The one who doesn't give change and sells by the gramEl que no da vuelto y vende en gramos
Guns, drugs, bullets, daggers, I saw dramasFierros, drogas, balas, dagas, dramas vi
Crows, robes, plagues, rats, scumbag foolsCuervos, togas, plagas, ratas, garca gil

Homies, pals, crew, gang, running wildÑeros, compas, gamba, ganga, ran al mil
Ghetto, hustle, court, crew, block, cornerGhetto, rioba, cancha, banda, cuadra, esquina
Here comes the beat from the party, and you got noAllá viene la comba de la bocha y no tenés
Turning back, cut the shirt, you gotta understandVuelta pa' atrás, corta la chomba hay que entender

That here you cross the canvas of the shack and diveQue acá cruzás la lona de la choza y te metes
Into the trap of the trap, where the crew is seenAl trap del trap, donde la comparsa se ve
Here comes the beat from the party, and you got noAllá viene la comba de la bocha y no tenés
Turning back, cut the shirt, you gotta understandVuelta pa' atrás, corta la chomba hay que entender

And in that flash with the beat came the rapY en ese flash con la comba vino el rap
Buddy, another conga, just like thatCompa otra conga, así nomás
A beat, yeah, and saying a thousand circumstancesUn beat si, y decir a mil circunstancias
Lyrics, metrics, skill, and to the death, boom bapLíricas, métrica, skill y a morir, boom bap

Like Wu-Tang in the Thirty-Six ChambersComo los Wu Tang en el thirthy Six Chambers
With a lot of hunger, raw like Tupac, super undergroundCon mucha hambre, crudo como Tupac, re mil under
With slang dropping on a sampled beatCon jerga tumba en un beat sample
Like Eazy-E, the father of N.W.A., gangsterComo Eazy-e el padre de NWA, gangster
Like the king, Ghostface, in Staten IslandComo el rey, Ghostface, en State Island
Like Daniel, a stone flower, but no dancingComo Daniel, flor de piedra pero no se baila

The same tricks, from the same rootsLas mismas mañas, de la misma entraña
Just like on the corner and with the baggy clothesAsí como en la esquina y con la pilcha ancha
From vinyl to cassette, from cassette to CDDel vinilo pa'l casete, del casete al CD
From CD to pen drive, from pen drive to MD and GmailDel CD al pen, del pen al md y Gmail
If you want, call it trap or now RKTSi querés decile trap o ahora RKT
But the street says rap, R.A.PPero la calle dice rap pa, R.A. p

The street is in the lyrics, if you're a slackerLa calle está en la letra, si sos vago
Spark and metrics, if you're toughChispa y métrica, si sos bravo
Rap is for the real deal and by degreeEl rap es pa'l polenta y por grado
By rank, and by knockoutPor rango, y por knockout

The street is in the lyrics, if you're a slackerLa calle está en la letra, si sos vago
Spark and metrics, if you're toughChispa y métrica, si sos bravo
Rap is for the real deal and by degreeEl rap es pa'l polenta y por grado
By rank, and by knockoutPor rango, y por knockout

And the one who's real, only the real oneY el que es de verdad, solo el de verdad
Knows how to move the carousel, to make a livingSabe mover el carrusel, para hacer la diaria
The one who comes and goes, like they got the vibeEl que viene y va, como tiene el mambo
Will have for the sweet, and also the breadVa a tener pa'l dulce, y también el pan
All that salt goes away dancing, move itToda esa sal se quita bailando, mové
Maybe tomorrow we won't be here, I don't knowQuizás capaz mañana no estamos, no sé

Sorrow, dramas, pairs, faith, debts, karma, streaks, gonePenas, dramas, pairas, fe, deudas, karmas, rachas, fue
Legs, gambas, souls, that arrive, mark, save, goodPiernas, gambas, almas, que llegan, marcan, salvan, bien
Throw it in the oil now, let the hustle heat up and explode, wolfTírala al aceite ahora, que ambiente el rioba y reviente loba
Batches of 20 and ladies, well done, ma'am, that style stealsCamadas de 20 y doñas, que bien señora, ese yeite roba
The block is ours, let's keep going until we dropLa cuadra es de nosotros vamos a darle hasta que de

The boat of the robocop ain't gonna sink hereLa lancha de los robocop acá no va a geder
Sing it out, those broken hearts know wellCantala que esos corazones rotos saben bien
They passed, I got left behind, they passed a long time agoPasaron, la quedé, pasaron hace tiempo
All that salt goes away dancing, move itToda esa sal se quita bailando, mové
Maybe tomorrow we won't be here, I don't knowQuizás capaz mañana no estamos, no sé

Sorrow, dramas, pairs, faith, debts, karma, streaks, gonePenas, dramas, pairas, fe, deudas, karmas, rachas, fue
Legs, gambas, souls, that arrive, mark, save, goodPiernas, gambas, almas, que llegan, marcan, salvan, bien
