Contar Lyrics English Translation by Denom | Dr. Ryo
Denom mentions a line about falling into a deep hole, nobody saw the struggle at first. The translation tells ‘I stumbled in a deep hole, nobody saw my struggle at first.’ The lyric offers the image of grease on a mustache that stays slick.
Estaba bien abajo mil y tropeceI was deep in the hole and I stumbled,
Nadie vio el dolor de cuando empecenobody saw the struggle when I first began.
Te cierran la puertaThey slam the door on you,
Y ponen el pieand then they trip you as you fall.
Para de contar contar contarStop counting, counting, counting.
Antes faltaba ahora estoy bienI used to have nothing, but now I’m doing fine,
Se por quien muero y estoy al 100I know who I’d die for and I’m giving my all,
Se bien quien falla y cual me es fielI know exactly who fails me and who’s truly loyal.
Se con quien contar contar contarI know who I can count on, count on, count on.
Todos los billetesAll of these bills,
Yo los pongo a contarI’m setting them out to count,
Y en verdad como lo hicimosand truthfully, how we made it happen—
No te puedo contarI just can’t tell you.
Empezamos desde abajoWe started from the bottom,
Desde atrás de un portalfrom the back of a ‘doorway’,
Soy la grasa para el fajoI’m the grease for the stack.
Yo lo pongo a engordarI’m fattening it up.
Y ese culo que boteAnd that body I displayed,
Lo hice disimuladoI did it on the low,
Como la grasa en el bigoteslick as grease on a mustache.
Es pa que floteIt’s so it stays afloat,
Que la ruta llegue a puertoso the route reaches the port,
Y que mis locos se alborotenand my boys get rowdy,
Pa que cojan pa que choquenso they take their cut, so they clash.
Pa que si me voy se noteSo that if I’m gone, it’s felt.
Todos los billetesAll of these bills,
Yo los pongo a contarI’m setting them out to count,
Y en verdad como lo hicimosand truthfully, how we made it happen—
No te puedo contarI just can’t tell you.
Empezamos desde abajoWe started from the bottom,
Desde atrás de un portalfrom the back of a ‘doorway’,
Soy la grasa para el fajoI’m the grease for the stack.
Yo lo pongo a engordarI’m fattening it up.
Estaba bien abajo mil y tropeceI was a thousand feet deep and I stumbled,
Nadie vio el dolor de cuando empecenobody witnessed the pain when I got my start.
Te cierran la puertaThey slam the door on you,
Y ponen el pieand then they trip you as you fall.
Para de contar contar contarStop counting, counting, counting.

Se bien quien falla y cual me es fielI know exactly who fails me and who’s truly loyal,
Se con quien contar contar contarI know who I can count on, count on, count on.
Lo que te a costado ese carroWhat that car cost you,
Yo lo gaste en pastoI blew it on ‘weed’.
En verdad ya ni lo cuento lo gastoTruth is, I don’t even count it anymore, I just spend it,
Doblo lo que tengo por si un día te faltaI double what I’ve got in case you’re ever short.
Soy de hacerlo serioI’m the type to keep it serious,
Y no decirlo muy altoand not speak too loud.
ShhShh.
Sobran las palabrasWords are cheap,
Las palabras se van cuando no cuadrawords vanish when things don’t add up.
El se lo labraHe carves his own way.
Ahora tenemos un planNow we’ve got a plan,
Estoy a una cuadraI’m just a block away.
De esos perros no llega el que diranFrom those dogs, the rumors don’t reach me,
Por mas que ladranno matter how much they bark.
Que se abranTell ’em to clear out,
Solo escucho a mi famI only listen to my family.
Todos los billetesAll of these bills,
Yo los pongo a contarI’m setting them out to count.
Y en verdad como lo hicimosAnd truthfully, how we made it happen—
No te puedo contarI just can’t tell you.
Empezamos desde abajoWe started from the bottom,
Desde atrás de un portalfrom the back of a ‘doorway’.
Soy la grasa para el fajoI’m the grease for the stack,
Yo lo pongo a engordarI’m fattening it up.
Estaba bien abajo mil y tropeceI was way down under and I stumbled,
Nadie vio el dolor de cuando empecenobody saw the hurt when I first set out.
Te cierran la puertaThey slam the door on you,
Y ponen el pieand then they trip you as you fall.
Para de contar contar contarStop counting, counting, counting.
