I'd translate "outta get me" as "Me quieren joder", "Buscan pleito conmigo", etc. They are certainly not sending a car with wine and roses to someone's house.
Hola Thomas, eso es lo que quiere decir lo de "van a por mí" en España....más fino, eso sí, jeje
The only comments I would make are that "ta" should stay, since it's the colloquial "outta", much like "gotta" for "got to". "Coger" is not the word I would have chosen from my Latin American Spanish; I would have gone with "atrapar", but that could just be a difference of continents...And "They won't break me" has the context of "I will not be affected by what they do"...which I will leave in the hands of native speakers to translate. "No podrán conmigo" just doesn't seem to get across the idea of "My spirit is untouchable".
what about
"no me destruirán"??They won't break me
me I would translate as "no me atraparán"...They won't catch
exx: Doesn't coger in Spain have a different meaning besides the most common one?or is it in another country?
Realmente, el destino del mundo depende, en primer lugar, de los estadistas y, en segundo lugar, de los intérpretes.
