The Intro
Israel & New Breed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y yo no los esperaba y los gasté, ah
Nunca he si'o mucho de ahorrar, de eso no sé, ah
Y es que no fallo jamás, soy Lacazette, ah
Quería llenar estadios, no grabar cassette, pero
La vida me dio agua y yo tenía sed, ah
Por mucho que lo ahogue no se muere el pez, créelo
Llantas de 22, 350 en el capó
341, el Farma, el Toni, el Largo y yo
Las manos pegajosas pero no es hachís
Y una puta pegajosa que parece un maniquí
En la calle no te vi y, ¿dónde estabas, G?
No sería en Madrid, si es que yo no estaba allí
Cómo voy a odiarles, primo, aquí no hay odio pa' ninguno
Si se está haciendo de noche y ya yo haciendo el desayuno, qué e' lo que
Dice que por qué no la llevo al TATEL
Yo la digo, "Puta, yo cocino, tú pon el mantel"
Tengo mucha mierda en la cabeza, pásame el papel
Soy el conejo 'e Donnie Darko, también el de Duracell
Hay misiones en el barrio pero no es Splinter Cell
No hay abeja reina pero sí que hay guerra por la miel
Los carros son gasolina, dragones y letras chinas
Tatuándose en la cocina, gastándose lo de ayer, ah
The lyrics to Israel & New Breed's song, The Intro, are in Spanish and are a reflection of the artist's personal experiences. In the first stanza, he talks about unexpected expenses and his lack of financial planning skills. He then compares himself to a successful football player who never misses a goal, Lacazette. The artist aspires to fill stadiums with his music, rather than just making cassette tapes, but he has faced challenges in his career path. Despite this, he believes that someone dangerous is not defined by their online presence.
In the second stanza, the artist lists the names of his friends and details their flashy lifestyle with high-end cars and expensive jewelry. He also mentions a woman who is very attractive but has no substance, which makes her similar to a mannequin. The artist then addresses a friend who was not around in the past, indicating that he does not hold any grudges. The artist then reflects on his own mind, which he admits is filled with "mierda" (meaning "crap" or "trash" in this context), but he is the "rabbit from Donnie Darko" and the "Duracell bunny" - meaning he persists and keeps going despite any limitations.
Overall, the lyrics to The Intro highlight the artist's personal journey and struggles with pursuing his musical aspirations, while also exploring themes of friendship, materialism, and personal reflection.
