Translation
Heaven From a Devil
Yeah-yah
Rudeboyz
Baby, you know how I am,
you know that I've never been monogamous,1
don't go looking to get your heart broken,
you can't love me the way that you do.2
I had made it clear, I had already told you
that your body is just a fancy to me (hahaha),
and even though I know you're a good woman,
don't take it the wrong way (Maluma, baby).
Baby, you're asking for heaven from a devil,
you're asking me for warmth3 when it's cold,
love isn't a necessity for me,
so I'd better move out of your way.4
Baby, you're asking for heaven from a devil (devil),
you're asking me for warmth when it's cold (cold),
love isn't a necessity for me (no)
I'd better move out of your way, your way, yeah.
Fearlessly, I surrendered myself to love and I lost my very soul,
now, you suffer because of my past5 (wuh)
though I find peace in your nude body (rra),
when you devour another, that's my punishment6 (no, no).
If you fall in love with me, it'll be for nothing (no, no)
if I walk away, I'll do it for you (he)
I don't know who the fool was for falling in love7,
no one believes in that sorta thing around here.8
Let's go the party, baby,
we'll have a bottle9 of Hennessy and
I won't make you fall in love with me anymore, let's keep it like this,
dance for me, this one's for you and me.
Baby, you're asking for heaven from a devil,
you're asking me for warmth when it's cold (cold)
love isn't a necessity for me, (-essity)
so I'd better move out of your way (your way)
Baby, you're asking for heaven from a devil (devil),

If you want something serious, please avoid it,
if it's just for sex, ask for it.
Call Papi Juancho and ask for it,
if you know it's only for that, ask for it,
but I can't promise you that we'll start where we left off.10

baby, you know that...

A lot of changes had to be made to sorta make sense of the song. I spot a few mistakes in the original lyrics (which I will edit in a bit). Footnotes will be left throughout this translation. The use of 'mami' or 'mamacita' is a term of endearment (could be substituted with: baby, darling, honey, love, etc.).
