In “Maldita Pobreza”, Bad Bunny tells a story that focuses on the desire to have enough purchasing power to buy and give luxury presents to his girlfriend, which is not necessary because she is not with him for the money, but even knowing that he wishes he could do it but is not possible due to his financial situation.

Upon reaching the conclusion that he does not have enough money, Bad Bunny begins to reflect and criticizes the current educational system and the saturation of the labor field that affects recent graduates. These social problems, which are present in many countries of the world in 2020, he takes them further, even relating them to the reasons that force some young people to decide to commit crimes due to the desesperation.

English Translation

I wanna buy a Ferrari to my girlfriend
But I can’t, but I can’t
I wanna buy a Ferrari to my girlfriend
But I can’t, I have no money, oh

F**king poverty, f**king poverty
It got me working, crazy in the mind
F**king poverty, f**king poverty
I just forget about it when you kiss me

I know that you love me, that material things don’t mind, eh
But I wanna buy expensive stuff to you
I wanna buy you Gucci and a house in front of the sea, eh-eh
So that you teach me to swim

I wanna dedicate the evenings to you
I wanna buy you a Ferrari, or a Mercedes
Picasso’s paintings on all the walls
I wanna take you to France, but it’s not possible

If the Retros don’t fit me, I take off the soles
But I want Louboutin for my Cinderella
I wanna go to Hawaii, and after to Coachella
I want bottles of champagne, but I don’t even have enough for a beer
Eh-eh, eh-eh

I wanna buy a Ferrari to my girlfriend
But I can’t, I have no money

F**king poverty, f**king poverty
It got me working, crazy in the mind
F**king poverty, f**king poverty
I just forget about it when you kiss me

Seven years studying till I graduated
But I don’t find job for what I studied
Today I wanted to go out, but I go on foot
I’m gonna tell you what I dreamed last night
I bought a gun and robbed someone
Ey, come here, ah, argh

I want more bucks, I want more bucks
She told me to look for a job, but I don’t get nothing, no matter how much I apply
Things are hard, idiots without a grudge
They move on their own and that doesn’t stop unless I leave

And before I wake up I blew up the Capitolio
And to all these b*stards with their monopoly
I said goodbye to the AKs and the accessories
Ayy, they killed me like 2Pac and Notorious
But my girlfriend arrived at the vigil in a Ferrari

Spanish Lyrics

Yo quiero comprarle un Ferrari a mi novia
Pero no puedo, pero no puedo
Yo quiero comprarle un Ferrari a mi novia
Pero no puedo, no tengo dinero, oh

Maldita pobreza, maldita pobreza
Me tiene joseando, loco de la cabeza
Maldita pobreza, maldita pobreza
Solo se me olvida cuando tú me besas

Yo sé que tú me quiere’, no importa lo material, eh
Pero yo te quiero costear
Comprarte todo Gucci y una casa frente al mar, eh-еh
Pa’ que me ensеñe’ a nadar

Quiero dedicarte los atardeceres
Comprarte un Ferrari, o si no un Mercede’
Cuadro’ de Picasso en toda’ las parede’
Llevarte pa’ Francia, pero no se puede

Si las Retro’ no me sirven, les quito la suela
Pero quiero Louboutin pa’ mi Cinderella
Ir pa’ Hawái, despué’ pa’ Coachella
Botella’ de champán, pero no tengo ni pa’ una chela
Eh-eh, eh-eh

Yo quiero comprarle un Ferrari a mi novia
Pero no puedo, no tengo dinero

Maldita pobreza, maldita pobreza
Me tiene joseando, loco de la cabeza
Maldita pobreza, maldita pobreza
Solo se me olvida cuando tú me besas

Siete año’ estudiando hasta que me gradué
Pero no encuentro trabajo en eso que estudié
Hoy quería salir, pero ando a pie
Te vo’a contar lo que anoche soñé
Que me compré un palo y a alguien asalté
Ey, ven acá, ah, argh

Yo quiero má’ ticket, yo quiero má’ ticket
Me dijo que busque trabajo, pero no consigo por má’ que aplique
La cosa está caliente, los burro’ sin pique
Se mueven solito’ y eso no para aunque yo me quite

Y ante’ de despertar exploté el Capitolio
Y a to’ eso’ cabr*ne’ con su monopolio
Me despedí de los AK y de lo’ accesorio’
Ey, me mataron como a 2Pac y a Notorious
Pero mi novia llegó en un Ferrari al velorio
