Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slug baby
Oh my God, that's Flex

Non ci parlo ai cops
Sventa libero
La mano ad uno sbirro fra non gliela do
I miei con le fedine sporche
Chi vuole i soldi non dorme
Lacrime sopra i volti delle madri
Figli in galera raggiungono i padri

Regoliamo i conti e partiamo (ehi)
Chico già lo sai come facciamo (oh)
In giro è Gran Turismo per Milano (sk sk)
La ballata di Lucky Luciano (Lucky)
Frate il tuo stipendio lo fumiamo (sì)
Santana baby come Savastano (Santana)
Sai che il mio contatto è messicano (ehi)
La ballata di Lucky Luciano

Frate in queste vie galoppiamo (hey)
Recupero i crediti e partiamo (partiamo)
Passa la Madama e balliamo (baila)
La ballata di Lucky Luciano (Lucky)

Pigli schiaffi se non porti i soldi o fai lo scemo
Se vedi la volante fra tu non schiacciare il freno
Mi fido di nessuno frate, solo del dinero
Tutto per la maglia, fra tu chiamami Del Piero
Trappo questa merda, fra è Santana MOE
Dimmi cosa cerchi, ti do quello che vuoi
La tipa vuole stare insieme a noi nel privé
Tu non starci con noi che non son cazzi tuoi

Hai finito i soldi è inutile che chiami
Perché siamo buoni, ma niente regali
Chiudi quella bocca che tu sei un infame (shh)
La facciamo grossa e tu non puoi fumare

Chico habla in espanolo
Che il contatto è messicano
Siamo in giro a fare affari
Senza un'amore sovrano

Pensa a fare i soldi compare
Già lo sai come facciamo
Ma' non ha mai smesso di pregare (no)
Ma Dio non ascolta queste strade

I miei fratelli sono sempre in giro a lavorare
Nessuno ti regala niente, lo devi sudare
E scarto la Madama, giovane Roberto Carlos
Corro verso l'oro frate come Diego Armando
Fra Giovani Danni contrabbando
Squilla il Nokia, frate ballo un calcio al tango
Faccio un tiro fra più forte di Ronaldo
La tua tipa sta tirando qualcos'altro

Non ci parlo ai cops
Sventa libero
La mano ad uno sbirro fra non gliela do
I miei con le fedine sporche
Chi vuole i soldi non dorme
Lacrime sopra i volti delle madri
Figli in galera raggiungono i padri

Regoliamo i conti e partiamo
Chico già lo sai come facciamo
In giro è Gran Turismo per Milano
La ballata di Lucky Luciano (Lucky)
Frate il tuo stipendio lo fumiamo
Santana baby come Savastano




Sai che il mio contatto è messicano (arriba)
La ballata di Lucky Luciano (prr prr)
