El Agarre De Jesús Lyrics English Translation by Mayito Arellanes
The songwriter mixes physical sensations with a gritty street narrative. He describes a high reaction of dopamine, writing, ‘I had just taken a hit of powder.’ This musician creates a stark picture of a numb body facing an unavoidable fight.
Mirala que cosas de la vidaLook at how life turns out,
en medio del juego estaba yaI was already in the middle of the game.
que mi Dios es grande reconozcoI acknowledge that my God is great,
la muerte miren mis ojosdeath stared right into my eyes.
y aquí estoy para contarAnd here I am to tell the tale.
La plática había sido directaThe conversation had been direct,
ustedes con nosotros no vanthat you guys don’t roll with us,
cada quien ande por su caminoand everyone should go their own way.
fue cuando algo ahí intervinoThat’s when something intervened,
y en agarre fue acabarand it ended up in a clash.
Presencié el acto miro que impactos recibe mi hermano no entiendoI witnessed the act, I saw the hits my brother took, I couldn’t understand it.
yo no soy santo pero mi nombre lo conocen por rezarle al credoI’m no saint, but they know my name for praying to the creed,
conocerán a Jesús y no hablo del cielothey will meet Jesus, and I’m not talking about heaven.
Una alta reacción en dopaminaA high reaction of dopamine,
Un p#lvo me acababa de echarI had just taken a hit of ‘powder’.
Mi cuerpo dormido y relajadoMy body was numb and relaxed.
Parecía que a los contrarios no podía ñhacer bajarIt seemed like I couldn’t bring the enemies down.
Creo que sentía la adrenalinaI think I felt the adrenaline,
Aquí no hay lugar pa titubearthere’s no room for hesitation here.
No se involucran los sentimientosFeelings don’t get involved.
No tengo remordimiento si mi rifle hago accionarI have no remorse if I’m forced to strike.
No lo celebro no estoy contentoI don’t celebrate it, I’m not happy,
Pero fue respuesta de encuentrobut it was a response to the encounter.
Me han conocido saben que he venido mi nombre estará en sus sentidosThey’ve known me, they know I’ve arrived, my name will remain in their senses.
Y si alguno quedo vivo eso yo loAnd if anyone was left alive, that is something I
Decidodecide.
