Ryan Castro “Richy” & SOG ( English Translation )- MI FORTUNA Lyrics

[Intro]
Ah, Doña Gloria,
Lend me a little chance for the Play 4*,
I’ll pay you when I win it.

*Play 4: Likely a local lottery or numbers game.

[Verse 1]
I wake up at 5 a.m., take a shower, and go to work.
Excited as hell about the car I want to buy.
I’m saving, but this paycheck isn’t even enough for breakfast (Damn, man).
Pack some coke* and ask God this bad streak will improve.
I have one pair of sneakers for work, the same ones for partying.
For the gym, for playing soccer, for going to mass, and for looking good (Amen).

*Coca: Likely Coca-Cola, used as a term for a pick-me-up or snack, not the drug.

[Pre-Chorus]
And me, who was born handsome, why wasn’t I a model? (Ay, man)
I have to break my back to keep living well (Yes, sir).

[Chorus]
Last night I went to bed with 100 messages on my phone
Saying if I don’t go the extra mile, they’re gonna send me to fucking hell (Ah).
Just wait and see, when I get my money, I won’t even say hello to them again (Just wait and see).
I want a little model, I want my fortune.
A sick SUV, I want my fortune.
A big house, I want my fortune.
To travel the whole planet, I want my fortune.

[Verse 2]
Ah, how awesome to have money to go to Coveñas* for a week.
With the buddies, with the girl, with the family.
And everyone dressed in originals.
Ay, Richy, you won the lottery.

*Coveñas: A beach destination in Colombia.

[Verse 3]
Now I wake up around 12, I ask the chef: “What’s for lunch?”
I take a dip in the pool, eat lobster, and a babe is gonna give me a massage (Eh, Hail Mary).
From packing a suitcase, I’m off to Paris—they called me to model (Ooh).
Then to Italy in the private jet, with cash in the Goyard bag.
The Patek Philippe, the Rolls Royce, yeah I’m famous on social media.
The girlfriend I have, I upgrade her, and even though I’m from the hood, I dress formal (Well now, my love).

[Chorus]
Last night I went to bed with 100 messages on my phone
Saying if I don’t go the extra mile, they’re gonna send me to fucking hell (Ah).
Just wait and see, when I get my money, I won’t even say hello to them again, ha.
I want a little model, I want my fortune.
A sick SUV, I want my fortune.
A big house, I want my fortune.
To travel the whole planet, I want my fortune.

[Bridge]
Do me a favor and speak to me softly and don’t raise your voice at me.
No one knows anyone else’s story, money didn’t fall into my lap from a mango tree.
If I eat rice and eggs, it’s because I like it,
But thank God it’s no longer because I have to.
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and how awesome, Sog (Amen).

[Outro]
What’s up, Richy, my love.
You were so lost.
Hey, and who are you?
