Paroles et traduction Luis R. Conriquez - El 8

El 8

Cosas que las tuve que superar
A muy temprana edad me tocó madurar
Muchos no me volteaban a mirar
Porque no traíamos ni un peso pa′ gastar

En breve nos pusimos a chambear
Con la ramita verde, también con le wax
San Diego empezamos a retacar
Ya era mi producto y querían más

High city, andamos al tiro
En ese retén yo me la navego tranquilo
No soy delincuente, ténganlo presente
Chambeando derecho he logrado lo que he tenido

Esta se va hasta San Diego pa mi compa' ocho
De su compa′ Luis R. Conriquez, viejo
Y puro cartel music

La familia pa' mí lo principal
Mis dos hijos, lo más grande que Dios me pudo dar
Un saludo para el padrino Andre
Que en las buenas y malas
Siempre ha estado más que al cien

Los lujos me los doy para variar
Ya la perrie bastante y no es por apantallar
Al primo tigre quiero saludar
En las buenas y malas al tirante siempre estás

Soy el ocho, andamos al tiro
Aquí por San Diego siempre ando prevenido
Para mis amigos, ya saben qué rollo
Yo ya me despido, mando saludos pa' todos

El 8

Things I had to overcome
I had to grow up at a very early age
Many didn't look at me
Because we didn't have a penny to spend

We soon started working
With the green branch, also with the wax
We started to fill up San Diego
It was already my product and they wanted more

High city, we're on the lookout
At that checkpoint, I navigate calmly
I'm not a criminal, keep that in mind
Working honestly I have achieved what I have

This one goes all the way to San Diego for my friend eight
From your friend Luis R. Conriquez, man
And pure cartel music

Family comes first for me
My two children, the greatest thing God could give me
A greeting for my godfather Andre
Who has always been there for me through good times and bad
More than a hundred percent

I spoil myself with luxuries for a change
I've suffered enough and it's not to impress
I want to greet my cousin Tigre
You're always there for me through good times and bad

I'm number eight, we're on the lookout
Here in San Diego, I'm always on my guard
For my friends, you know the drill
I'm saying goodbye now, and sending greetings to everyone
