[Music]

I've worked hard to get what I want and

I've tried many times to be the

first one to

say that I fell, but despite the

stumbles, I'll make it out of here, even if they

say I'm the worst, because I was happy, even if it wasn't like that

I struggled a lot to get to where

I am, on a tough road through Sonora

navigating, they'll always see me out patrolling with

my tactical vest hanging well, and the vibes

will be shaking, cutting verses like a rooster

to light up a red Marlboro, no

more, just to blast it, and we're out here in the bad

neighborhood, I don't pull away, I like

to always walk with respect, the kids

will treat me right, with the diamonds on my chest

letting the

humility show, well-dressed with

the crew, we're celebrating and we're not

going down, up in Sonora

no, a good friend to the people who gave me a

hand, making money, good cash, and

the iron's ready, there's no fear here, especially

not with the boys I have by my side, it's a

parade of armored vehicles passing

by, even if they say I'm the worst, because I was

happy

I struggled a lot to get to where I am and

[Music]

I like to always walk with respect,

diamonds on my chest, letting them notice the

[Music]

humility, oh

[Music]
