[Music]

I've worked hard to get what I

want, and I've tried many times

to be the first one who...

but I fell, yet despite the

stumbles, I'll make it out of here; they'll say of me

that I'm the worst, that I was happy and it wasn't

like that; I struggled a lot to get to

where I am, cruising through Sonora

in a tough ride; they'll always see me ready

on patrol with the tactical vest on and

the radios buzzing; cutting through

verses, a rooster to burn, a heavy load of

reds just to let them blast, and yeah

Mazatlán, strolling through the Malecon, we're in

we're down for it; I like to always move

with respect; they should treat the young gun right

Diamonds on the chest, but let the

la

humility show; well-equipped with

the gear we have, and we aren't

leaving; Sonora is on top

a good friend to the people who gave me a

hand, making money, big bills, and the

plated iron; there's no fear here, least of all

among the boys I have by my side; it's a

parade of armored cars passing

by; they'll say that I'm the worst, that I was

happy

I struggled a lot to get to where I am, and through...

Sonora, I like to always move with respect
