Que Siga La Mata Dando

Translation

Mientras las matas siguen siempre dando

While the plants keep on giving

Muchos de ustedes están descansando

Many of you are resting

Me la navego siempre pa' todos lados

I navigate it always everywhere

Pero eso sí, jamás miro pa' abajo

But for sure, I never look down

Pasan los años, tiempos correteando

Years pass, times running

Recuerdo ayer loqueando con los vatos

I remember yesterday, hanging out with the dudes

Éramos felices, no lo miramos

We were happy, we didn't notice

Pero ni modo de quedar callados

But no way to stay silent


Pensando en cómo la gente ha cambiado

Thinking about how people have changed

Ayer éramos siete, hoy solo cuatro

Yesterday we were seven, today only four

Mientras el tiempo va y va bien pasando

While time goes on and on, passing by

Te miras al espejo y vaya, hay cambios

You look in the mirror and wow, there are changes

Conocerás gente de todos modos

You'll meet people in all sorts of ways

Unos critican, pero nacen sordos

Some criticize, but they're born deaf

Unos te admiran por todos tus logros

Some admire you for all your achievements

Y créanme que de esos ya hay muy pocos

And believe me, there are very few of those


Bien dice el corrido: Yo no he cambiado

The corrido says it well: I haven't changed

Los pocos que era seguimos intactos

The few we were, we remain intact

Pa' esos amigos de todo ha pasado

For those friends, everything has happened

Solo los recuerdos siguen pasando

Only memories keep passing by

Un blunt del verde nos vamos rolando

A blunt of green, we start rolling

Los verdaderos no van a negarlo

The real ones won't deny it

Un trago amargo al pecho apretado

A bitter drink, chest tightened

Y brindemos por los que se olvidaron

And let's toast to those who were forgotten


Dicen que las matas se siguen dando

They say the plants keep on giving

Y aunque no creas, mira, mira bien, vato

And even if you don't believe, look, look well, dude

Hay gente corriente por todos lados

There are ordinary people everywhere

Tienes que cuidarte de los más falsos

You have to watch out for the most fake

Hoy brindo porque ya murió el pasado

Today I toast because the past has died

Y en el futuro no sé pa sigamos

And in the future, I don't know if we'll continue

Si algo aprendí, es que hay amigos contados

If I learned anything, it's that friends are few

Y siempre que siga la mata dando

And as long as the plants keep giving
