I know my rhymes sometimes cause upset

When my neurons race to myself I get scared

My responses can be so aggressive

That even the letters flee from me because they are afraid that I will write them

I have no rifles to kill you, just the track is enough

I turn lyrics into ideas like an illusionist

In one line I kill you, I fracture you, I injure you

And in the next one I resuscitate you when I mention you

That's part of my art

Let everyone know that these rhymes are for you without having to mention you

And I don't do it to avoid friction

I do it so as not to become famous in countries where nobody knows you

After seeing how wars and guerrillas move

Do you think I'm going to be afraid of your gang?

Shoot whenever you want, you mean rapper

Here the most thug does not win, the most ingenious wins

In your head you are a narco wanted by the police

And your guns are like unicorns, fancy

No problem that you have imaginary enemies

But if the kids think you're a hit man

You have not lived three damn difficulties in your life

You did not miss school, you did not lack food

If the people of the Congo had your chances

They would be graduates of the best universities

If I take you on an excursion to the African central

After seeing the war you go out singing Christian lyrics

There your rapper clothes, your baseball cap

And your little thug chain melts with the sun

Or I'll take you to Syria to feel the bombings

And see how they left the kids without arms

What are you going to do when your son gets caught at the disco

And without delicacy with an AK your head explodes?

Or have your brother's face erased in a violent way

Or that they clean your mai 'with the short and the forty

You gross bastard rapping on how to blow brains

In a country where they kill you for stealing a peso

I'm not a saint rapping, much less a gentleman

At some point in rhyming I hanged ten sailors

But in that case it is different to incite disorder

Because when tyranny is law, revolution is order

Chorus 1

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Verse 2

Do you want to throw me away? Here I leave you a couple of riddles

I'm afraid of cockroaches and lizards

They haven't heard me for years on the fucking radio in Puerto Rico

I've already released five albums and I'm still not rich

Some call me a communist, a hundred percent demagogue

The ultra right hates me, the ultra left too

My sexual performance is on the ground

After mocking bald men I'm running out of hair

I said son of a bitch to the governor and although he deserved it

Inside I regretted it and I didn't say it until today

Before understanding the inequalities of people

I bought a used Maserati that now doesn't work

My credit is screwed up, they don't even sell me a coffee

So to pay another monthly payment I prefer to walk

I'm like boxers mishandle money

I invest everything in my career because art comes first

I'm the slowest in my family, I'm not brilliant

I fight for education and I was never a good student

I have a phobia of airplanes, I like politics

Although I say that I do not care, criticism hurts

My best friend was killed in a barracks

I have a lot to write and little paper

My honesty is transparent color

You can see me inside just by looking straight ahead

You can try to throw me off and try

Although to remain honest

I am the best at this

Chorus 2

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside

Inside inside

Well inside, I left you inside
