G.A.T.O Lyrics (English Translation) – L-Gante

G.A.T.O (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
L-Gante starts by saying he’s always wild, a bit unhinged, and mocks someone else who’s acting crazy too—probably getting high. He rolls deep with his crew and when things get serious, they go quiet and stay sharp. He feels like people were hoping he’d fail, and when he did hit rock bottom, no one cared. Now he’s back and refuses to trust fake people—he’s not falling for betrayal like Judas did.

[Chorus]
He calls someone a “cat,” which here seems to mean fake or weak. He says he’s not about silly games and he’s been doing his thing strong for a while. He’s out riding in a Bora, drinking a cheap liquor called “lagarto.” He’s ready for action, aggressive even—telling someone to hand over a can so he can make a move.

[Verse 1]
He talks about showing up in style, armed and ready to party in the VIP section, with drinks and a bold attitude. He makes fun of guys who act tough but are really just loud. He and his friends are dressed sharp and stay flashy, smoking and enjoying life without running from the cops. His focus is on making money. He compares himself to Westside icons and references the street lifestyle—girls, drügs, wild spending. He points out how he and his crew are authentic, while others fake it, never even doing something as small as popping a wheelie on a bike. They move around the city like real gangsters, sometimes not even paying for tolls. He mixes elegance with street life—wearing suits while still being involved in crime, which annoys privileged people. He calls out people who pretend to be tough but are too scared to live it. His environment is crowded and rough, but that’s where he and his thug friends stay loyal and tight.

[Proverb]
This part repeats the idea of someone being a “cat,” basically calling them fake or weak again. Meanwhile, he’s being called a boss and even a thief, almost like those labels are badges of honor. The “cat” reference continues playfully, saying she drinks from a plate like a real cat—probably mocking someone for being low-level or pitiful.

[Verse 2]
He talks about women constantly asking him for songs and even getting desperate by calling through strange means like a walkie-talkie. He jokes about being pure, even though he’s already got a new girl. His people (urros) are doing fine, while he dismisses haters who want to mess things up. He knows they’re jealous because he’s running the scene. He respects real ones, not fakes, and among his crew, everyone shows respect. He references a guy loading a shotgun and staying calm while doing it, showing how serious his circle is. They drive around in style, live wild, and turn their lives into music. If he wants party drügs, he has easy access. Everything gets handled smoothly, no drama. There’s a girl dancing hard to the beat, and they’re out here wrecking places without leaving a trace. Life’s tough and full of chaos, even if someone’s trying to stay upbeat. He starts his day in poor areas and ends it in a fancy apartment—showing he’s come a long way, but still stays connected to the streets.

[Chorus]
He repeats the same vibe—calling someone fake again, while saying he’s been on fire, confident, and out on the streets riding and drinking. He keeps up that hard, aggressive tone, ready to take action and always staying one step ahead.

[Outro]
He shouts out his roots and reps his music style—Cumbia 420—and gives props to his team and collaborators. He mentions names like Maxi El Brother, One Blood Music, and Omar Varela, all tied to his music world. He signs off by reinforcing his identity—L-Gante—and the way he does things: with both swagger and grit.
