Verse 1
¡Ah!
A veces en barco o a veces aviones
Y no ando de vacaciones, sobran los sabores
Entre la semana se arman las privadas
Los plebes ya se la saben, pura fresa, niña mala
In this opening verse, Peso Pluma sets the stage for his lifestyle. He mentions traveling by boat or plane, hinting at a life of luxury but clarifying that it’s not just for leisure. The reference to “privadas” suggests exclusive parties where he and his friends hang out. “Pura fresa, niña mala” shows that he's surrounded by a certain type of people, likely socialites who enjoy the high life. It gives a glimpse of not just wealth, but the social scene that accompanies it.
Chorus
Me miran por la plaza en la Cherokee blanca
La gente creo hasta piensa que este morro no trae plata, no se cansa
Varias citas con conocidos, conectes, llegan los presidentes
Arremango pacas y no me dan lata, me enamoré del billete
Y me enamoré del billete
The chorus hits hard with the idea of perception versus reality. People see him driving a white Cherokee, but they underestimate him. The “presidentes” line refers to influential people he meets, highlighting his connections. The line about being in love with money shows his ambition and desire for success. It’s catchy and creates a strong hook that really nails the message of being driven by financial goals.
Verse 2
Cáele
La Double P, ¡wuh!
A veces en barco o a veces aviones
Y no ando de vacaciones, sobran los sabores
Entre la semana se arman las privadas
Los plebes ya se la saben, pura fresita operada
This verse revisits some themes from the first verse but adds a bit of flair with “La Double P.” It reinforces his lifestyle of luxury travel and exclusive parties. The mention of “pura fresita operada” hints at a more superficial aspect of his social circle, suggesting that he’s aware of the fake personas around him. It shows he’s not just living in the moment but also observing the people he surrounds himself with.
Chorus
Ya llegué en caliente, dorados los dientes
Voy contando presidentes, llego al hotel de volada
Aunque tengo hermanos que no están conmigo
Sigo firme en mi camino, por ellos no vo' a pararle
In this chorus, he’s confident and ready to make moves. "Dorados los dientes" suggests he’s showing off his wealth and success. Counting “presidentes” again emphasizes his connections and the power he holds. The line about his brothers not being with him brings a touch of vulnerability. He’s loyal and driven, promising to keep going for his loved ones, showing that he remembers where he came from.

Varias citas con conocidos, conectes, llegan los presidentes
Arremango pacas y no me dan lata, me enamoré ya del billete

A veces en barco o a veces aviones
Y no ando de vacaciones, sobran los sabores
Entre la semana se arman las privadas
Los plebes ya se la saben, pura fresa, niña mala
Mi segunda casa es aquí, en Atlanta
Siempre firme la plebada, que están calientes las calles
Aunque tengo hermanos que no están conmigo
Sigo firme en mi camino, por ellos no vo'a pararle
Me miran por la plaza en la Cherokee blanca
La gente creo hasta piensa que este morro no trae plata, no se cansa
Varias citas con conocidos, conectes, llegan los presidentes
Arremango pacas y no me dan lata, me enamoré del billete
Y me enamoré del billete
Cáele
La Double P, ¡wuh!
A veces en barco o a veces aviones
Y no ando de vacaciones, sobran los sabores
Entre la semana se arman las privadas
Los plebes ya se la saben, pura fresita operada
Ya llegué en caliente, dorados los dientes
Voy contando presidentes, llego al hotel de volada
Aunque tengo hermanos que no están conmigo
Sigo firme en mi camino, por ellos no vo' a pararle
Me miran por las plazas en la Cherokee blanca
La gente como piensa que este morro no trae nada, no se cansa
Varias citas con conocidos, conectes, llegan los presidentes
Arremango pacas y no me dan lata, me enamoré ya del billete
Me enamoré ya del billete
