I've worked hard to get what I

want, and I've tried many times

to be the first one she dances for

best, watch out because they're coming for me, but despite

the others, I think, "God, get me out of here." They talk

about me, saying I'm the worst, that I was happy, but it

wasn't like that; it was quite a battle to get

to where I am. In an hour, I'm cruising

through Sonora; you'll always see me

patrolling with my vest hanging low and

the books, making them vibrate, lacking nothing

and a joint to smoke, a bad vibe from

the reds, just more to blast

while strolling the boardwalk. We don't head down to

Vallarta, I like to roam around there,

always showing respect to the young guys,

with the piece on my chest, and let it be known

the wealth is flowing, receiving the love,

and up with Sonora, old lady!

[Music]

Well, thanks to the friends and the people who gave me a

hand, making money, good cash, and

the heavy iron. There's no fear here, especially

not with the babies I have by my side; it's a

parade of armored vehicles passing by.

They talk about me, saying I'm the worst, that

I was happy.

It was quite a battle to get to where

I am, and through Sonora, I cruise in an hour,

and even further back, it wasn't just strolling the boardwalk.

We don't head down to Vallarta,

I like to roam around there, always showing respect

to the young guys. They'll see the

jewelry shining on my chest, letting them see

the humility.

[Música]

he trabajado duro para obtener lo que yo

quiero y lo he intentado muchas veces

para ser el primero que le perrea de

mejor sálvese que me caen pero a pesar

del otro pienso Dios sale de aquí tiran

de mí que soy lo peor que fui feliz y no

fue así de batalla bastante para llegar

a donde estoy en una hora por Sonora me

navegó siempre me verán

patrullar con la pechera bien colgado y

los libros las de vibrar faltando versal

y un gallo para quemar un mal Boro de

los rojos lo más para tronar

en el malecón pasear no jalamos para

Vallarta por ahí ya me gusta andar

siempre con respeto al chavalón la de

tratar en el pecho y que se note los

bienes jalados con Patito recibe

y arriba Sonora vieja

[Música]

Bueno amigo de la gente que me dio la

mano haciendo feria buen billete y El

Fierro terciado Aquí no hay miedo menos

los bebés que traigo al lado es un

desfile de blindadas las que andan

pasando de la de mí que soy lo peor que

fue feliz

bastante bastante para llegar a donde

estoy y por Sonora en una dura me navegó

y hace más atrás no era el malecón

pasear nos jalamos para Vallarta por

allá me gusta andar siempre con respeto

al chava no lo han de mirar lo

brillantes en el pecho que se note la

humildad
