Joven Prometedor Lyrics Translation – Giovanny Ayala | Javier Rosas Y Su Artillería Pesada
Giovanni tells the story of a kid who swaps a Balenciaga shirt for memories of Tijuana rides. A line reads, ‘He never lost his humility’, showing his pride stays grounded. He pops a ‘bote’ and thanks the crew that stood by when he had no cent.
El No Parece MalandroHe doesn’t look like a ‘malandro’ (‘street thug’)
Porque Se Viste Fresón‘Cause he dresses like a ‘fresón’ (‘preppy’)
Tiene Veintitantos AñosHe’s in his twenties
Un Joven PrometedorA promising young man
La Vida Que Todos QuierenThe life that everyone wants
Al Fin Se La Puede DarHe can finally afford it now
Dejo La Pobreza El PlebeThe ‘plebe’ (‘kid’) left poverty behind
Pero Nunca La HumildadBut he never lost his humility
Se La Rola Por TijuanaHe cruises around Tijuana
Por Culichi Y MazatlánThrough ‘Culichi’ (‘Culiacán’) and Mazatlán
Se Enrolo Con La PlebadaHe joined up with the ‘plebada’ (‘the crew’)
Y Comenzó A TrabajarAnd he started to work
Lo Que Faltaba En Su CasaEverything that was missing at home
Siempre Le MortificoAlways used to weigh on him
Pero Era Mas PreocupanteBut it was even more worrying
Ser Uno Más Del MontónTo be just another face in the crowd
Mi Camisa BalenciagaMy shirt’s Balenciaga
Y Es Un AP Mi RelojAnd my watch is an AP (‘Audemars Piguet’)
Se Quien Estuvo ConmigoI know who stood by my side
Cuando No Tenia Ni Un PesoWhen I didn’t have a single cent
Ay Supe Quien Es Mi AmigoThat’s how I found out who’s a true friend
Y Quien Se Arrimo Por DineroAnd who just hung around for the money
Como Llegue De La NadaSince I came from nothing
Nada Tengo Que PerderI’ve got nothing left to lose
Lo Que Ya Traigo Es GananciaEverything I’ve got now is a bonus
Y Ni Eso Me LlevareAnd I won’t even take that with me
Un Día Me Iré De Esta VidaOne day I’ll leave this life
Y Ese Dia DescansareAnd on that day I’ll rest
Me Quiero Comer El MundoI want to conquer the world
Antes Que Me Coma ElBefore it swallows me whole
Cuando Destapo Un BotesWhen I pop open a ‘bote’ (‘beer’)
Me Acuerdo De Donde VengoI remember where I’m from
Disfruto Mas Esos TragosI enjoy those drinks much more
Rodeado De Los Que QuieroSurrounded by the ones I love
Tengo Una Regla De OroI’ve got one golden rule
Y Esa Es Ser AgradecidoAnd that’s to be grateful
No Hay Motivo Pa El FestejoThere’s no reason for a party
Brindo Porque Sigo VivoI’m toasting ’cause I’m still alive
Javier Rosas y Su Artillería Pesada and Giovanni Ayala bring the hustle to life. The track is a streetwise celebration, and ‘Joven Prometedor’ lyrics offer a gritty look at rising from poverty with gratitude.
