4toH Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sólo subo al ring, no me llamen
No estarán ahí, cuando gane,
Juego todo a mí,
Negro estoy cómodo, Subo de 3 en 2
Flexing like Hamilton, Tu chica lo vaciló,
Hey hey, Ojos coloraos como Tego Calderón,
Me comuniqué,
Sólo me faltan esa paca de cien,
Aunque sin eso sigo siendo un rey,
Shoutout my clica no caben los fakes,
No cabe la ley,
Tamo' tranquilo en el mood hasta que den okey,
Non stop como Drake,
No le bajamos mi negro la movie está en play,
Tengo resto, me quieren ver molesto,
Les contesto, con el primer puesto,
Estoy expuesto, por mí siempre apuesto,
Estás molesto, tu shorty tira gestos,
Tú no te imaginas, lo que se siente estar bien, yeah
Ando chilling con un mambo que nunca imaginé, yeah
Negro estoy cómodo, Subo de 3 en 2
Flexing like Hamilton, Tu chica lo vaciló,
Hey, hey, Ojos coloraos como Tego Calderón,
No pueden con mi tumbao′, aunque me tiren con la glock,
Tú no te imaginas, lo que se siente estar bien, yeah
Ando chilling con un mambo que nunca imaginé, yeah
Habla mierda, fuck you hater lárgate de aquí,
Negro muéstrame los dientes, llegó el MVP
Ultra instinto, soy una Jedi con el microphone
Desde guacho arrastro esto de sonar cabrón
Respeto a todos y a nadie le tengo miedo
Acá el potrero tiene vista pa'l riachuelo
Salí del bajo, de tonto no tengo pelo
Tengo la calle y unos libros que sirvieron.
Todo el mundo opinando: "esto se hace así"
Son los primeros mama huevo en dejarte morir
Negro el techo se caía en dónde dormí
Qué mierda me van a correr estos loros a mí.
Negro estoy cómodo, Subo de 3 en 2
Flexing like Hamilton, Tu chica lo vaciló,
Hey, hey, Ojos coloraos como Tego Calderón,
No pueden con mi tumbao', aunque me tiren con la glock,
Tú no te imaginas, lo que se siente estar bien, yeah
Ando chilling con un mambo que nunca imaginé, yeah
