Original text with translation

Bartleby & Co.

Toteking

Original text

Ah, pensar en dejarlo, mi idea recurrente, el TOC, perderme

Ser un Bartleby sin banco, olvidar el folio en blanco

Fantasear con la idea de no escribir más

Y dejar de ser una sombra de la realidad

Si lo analizo fríamente

Creo que en total hablo más solo que con gente

Perdiéndome la vida pa' contársela al de enfrente

En mi cárcel con sus tres comidas

Sin ser un matador ni un Mario Kempes

Y me imagino abandonándolo, inservible

Buscarme un curro físico que sea cierto y tangible

Salir de mi burbuja de líricas enfermas

Currar a lo Lester Burnham

Y en mi descanso;

pesas y fumar hierba

Y está claro que sí sé con certeza

Que la peor de to’s mis compañías siempre ha si’o mi cabeza

La hija puta me da letras que me han paga’o un palacio

Y sin embargo siento que dentro el tiempo mata despacio

Y no sé si me equivoqué de curro

Podría haberme deja’o esas orejeras de burro

Seguir el signo, acabar el CAP, buscar un empleo fijo

Y ser una mierda de maestro pa’l inútil de tu hijo

No puedo evitarlo, siento celos

De la aura de alegría que desprende el camarero

Mi oficio me ha dotado pa' alegrar tus días tristes

Pero jamás podré confeccionar sus chistes, créelo

La gracia que no me han da’o, el sol que apenas valoro

Compáralo con estar encerra’o en mi estudio grabando coros

Día tras día la impotencia me llena

Pensar que na' de lo que he escrito hasta hoy es mierda buena

Comprar el pan y descubrir la belleza

El color de al lado, melocotones y fresas

El puzzle gira y yo ni sé cómo se llama mi pieza

Los codos ennegrecidos, siempre clava’os en la mesa

Ni mirando mi lista de emoticonos más usa’os sé quién soy

De dónde vengo, a dónde voy

Un día siento que mi rap no tiene sustancia

Y otro día que yo le hago al rap el rescate de Bankia

Aún así, pensa’o en dejarlo, pensa’o en dejarlo

Ideas en bucle sin sentimientos como Lorne Malvo

¿Cómo le digo al mánager que se ha acaba’o?

Si estamos en enero y hay seis festis confirma’os

Tiro pa’lante como siempre y te vomito

Las canciones que ya has escuchado diez años en tu equipo

Si tú estás cansa’o, imagina yo que a veces las recito

Y olvido la letra por pura supervivencia ¡chico!

Ya no sé ni lo que quiero, pero sé a quien quiero

Entre el cielo y el infierno, tú lo más bonito

Hoy me mola esta mierda y mañana ausente

Esto ya ni es rapear, es arqueología presente

Pensar en dejarlo, buscarme algo

Donde nada esté a mi cargo y mi mente a salvo

Me he vuelto loco, eso ya es un hecho

Me he comi’o mi cabeza y una mano en el pecho

Pensar en dejarlo, to’a la vida escuchando

«¿Qué te pasa Tote?

¿En qué estás pensando?»

¡Shh!

Estoy valorando esta locura

Esta impostura me está matando

«This is real life»

«I'm liking the show»

«Just a rebel to the world with no place to go»

«I be blowing up spots like I was sending out mail bombs»

«…hold me down at all»

Song translation

Ah, thinking about quitting, my recurring idea, OCD, getting lost

Be a Bartleby without a bench, forget the blank sheet

Fantasize about not writing anymore

And stop being a shadow of reality

If I analyze it coldly

I think that overall I talk more alone than with people

Losing my life to tell it to the person in front

In my jail with his three meals

Without being a matador or a Mario Kempes

And I imagine abandoning it, useless

Find me a physical job that is true and tangible

Get out of my bubble of sick lyrics

Work like Lester Burnham

And in my rest;

weights and smoking weed

And it's clear that I do know for sure

That the worst of all my companies has always been my head

The bitch daughter gives me letters that have paid me or a palace

And yet I feel that inside time kills slowly

And I don't know if I got the wrong job

He could have left me those donkey earmuffs

Follow the sign, finish the CAP, look for a permanent job

And be a shitty teacher for the useless of your son

I can't help it, I feel jealous

From the aura of joy that the waiter gives off

My trade has endowed me to brighten up your sad days

But I will never be able to concoct his jokes, believe it

The grace that they have not given me, the sun that I hardly value

Compare it to being locked up in my studio recording choirs

Day after day helplessness fills me

To think that none of what I have written until today is good shit

Buy the bread and discover the beauty

The color next door, peaches and strawberries

The puzzle spins and I don't even know what my piece is called

Blackened elbows, always stick to the table

Not even looking at my list of most used emoticons do I know who I am

Where do I come from, where do I go

One day I feel like my rap has no substance

And another day that I do to rap the rescue of Bankia

Even so, I thought of leaving it, I thought of leaving it

Ideas in a Loop Without Feelings as Lorne Malvo

How do I tell the manager it's over?

If we are in January and there are six festis confirm'os

I throw forward as always and I vomit you

The songs you've already listened to ten years in your team

If you are tired, imagine that sometimes I recite them

And I forget the lyrics for sheer survival boy!

I don't even know what I want anymore, but I know who I want

Between heaven and hell, you the most beautiful

Today I'm cool with this shit and absent tomorrow

This isn't even rapping anymore, it's present archeology

Think about leaving him, find me something

Where nothing is in my charge and my mind is safe

I've gone crazy, that's a fact

I have eaten my head and a hand on the chest

Thinking about leaving it, all my life listening

"What's wrong with you Tote?

What are you thinking about?"

shh!

I'm valuing this madness

This imposture is killing me

«This is real life»

«I'm liking the show»

"Just a rebel to the world with no place to go"

«I be blowing up spots like I was sending out mail bombs»

“…hold me down at all”
