2012 Meaning & Lyrics (Enayy | Joss Ml)
The lyrics describe a night of freedom and fun, with references to brands like ‘Goga’ and ‘Ed Hardy’ and dances like ‘perreo.’ Joss ML sings, ‘Lose yourself, ‘cause tonight’s a night for pleasure,’ inviting listeners to let go and enjoy the moment. The streetwise narrator adds a playful edge, warning, ‘Don’t let your mai find out.’
Pa los tiempos de reypirin y el golosoBack in the days of ‘Reypirin’ and ‘El Goloso’,
Muévete mami yo no soy celosomove it, girl, I’m not the jealous type
Si te me pegas me pongo peligrosoif you get close to me, I’ll get dangerous
Porque soy chakal y también soy mañosobecause I’m a ‘chakal’ ‘street-tough’ and I’m sly too.
A rre ba ta teLose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure
De ja te verlet yourself be seen,
Que tu mai no se enteredon’t let your ‘mai’ ‘mom’ find out.
A rre ba ta teLose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure
De ja te verlet yourself be seen,
Que tu mai no se enteredon’t let your ‘mai’ find out.
En 2012 donde tú usabas gogaBack in 2012 when you wore ‘Goga’ ‘popular brand’,
Esque la mamita siempre está a la modasince the lady’s always keeping up with fashion
Con las Michel y también la motorawith the ‘Michel’ ‘classic sneakers’ and the motorbike too
A tope el perreo es una abusadoraat the peak of the ‘perreo’ ‘grinding dance’, she’s a heartbreaker.
Se puso la edhardy para andar eleganteShe put on ‘Ed Hardy’ to look fancy,
A kolatronic es lo que bufaba antes‘Kolatronic’ ‘retro sound’ is what was blasting before
En los colectivos los dj eran cantantesin the party crews, the DJs were singers,
Cuarto contacto y también el estudiantelike ‘Cuarto Contacto’ and ‘El Estudiante’ too.
Y que no pare de bailarAnd don’t stop dancing,
Y que no que no pare de perrearand don’t, don’t stop the ‘perreo’
Y que no pare de bailarand don’t stop dancing,
Y que no que no pare de perrearand don’t, don’t stop the ‘perreo’.
Con el tra tra traWith the ‘tra tra tra’ ‘rhythmic beat’,
A rre ba ta telose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure
De ja te verlet yourself be seen.
Que tu mai no se entereDon’t let your ‘mai’ find out,
A rre ba ta telose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure
De ja te verlet yourself be seen.
Que tu mai no se entereDon’t let your ‘mai’ find out.
Pregúntale a tu hermana cómo se usaban las donasAsk your sister how the ‘donas’ ‘hair scrunchies’ were worn,
Y verás como es que ahora tú te impresionasand you’ll see how you’re impressed now,
Como cuando los jedays cantaban la de la Lolajust like when the ‘Jedays’ sang about Lola.
Ahora la esquina somos los dueños de la zonaNow on the corner, we’re the owners of the block,
Que maldito flow que maldito swagwhat a crazy flow, what a crazy swag,
Cuando te pegue pa los obscuro y te dé por de trawhen I pull you into the dark and get behind you,
Yo no soy tibio sabe que yo si le voa durarI’m not lukewarm, she knows I’m gonna last.
Me echo uno me echo dos y no voa acabarI’ll go for one, I’ll go for two, and I won’t finish.
Y que no pare de bailarAnd don’t stop dancing,
Y que no que no pare de perrearand don’t, don’t stop the ‘perreo’
Y que no pare de bailarand don’t stop dancing.
Y que no que no pare de perrearAnd don’t, don’t stop the ‘perreo’
Con el tra tra trawith the ‘tra tra tra’ rhythmic beat,
A rre ba ta telose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure.
De ja te verLet yourself be seen,
Que tu mai no se enteredon’t let your ‘mai’ find out,
A rre ba ta telose yourself,
Que hoy es noche de placer’cause tonight’s a night for pleasure.
De ja te verLet yourself be seen,
Que tu mai no se enteredon’t let your ‘mai’ find out.
