[English]

The kids from the neighborhood also dream of

shining one day. There are many nights

that I spent my life searching

[singing]

and I remember it so well that I can't even

tell you, and [singing][music] I had to

earn it myself. Not everything is what

you think it is, [singing] there's what is. Everything goes

everything, I make it happen and I say

Fast and Furious [music] like a zombie

and I've put in the work that I'm sure you

[music][singing] won't put in. If I go out with

the crew, we might hit the jackpot.

We buy [music] a 19 and we [singing]

turn it into a full set.

They move it [music] through a cruise, you

don't see that. Talking with a homie and with

a kid, just a local guy. I cried

once; my mind thinks about money and

it [music] accumulates, loneliness. They used to yell

watch out for the bad guys. If I narrate

[music][singing] what I see. They'll call me

Cyril. In the yard or during recess

[singing]

with the inmates and the prisoners. Watch out,

a shootout! It's my people.

Don't underestimate me, my neighborhood too.

[music]

Don't underestimate me, there are also Palestinians and

Portuguese here. If it happens to you, you'll see

[music] that Spain and the USA are similar. In

my plaza, a kid with a thin frame is

only [music] 13.

All the things [singing]

that are here. Oh, oh, [singing] what is here.

Everything

[singing] I make it happen

here like a connection

[singing]

here [music]

like

We're famous.

[music][singing]

[Spanish]

Los niños del barrio también soñamos con

un día brillar. Son muchas las noches

que yo me pasaba la vida buscando

[canto]

y tengo recuerdo que ni siquiera te lo

puedo contar y [canto][música] me lo

tuve que ganar. N tod la n tú nao lo que

hay hay lo que [canto] hay. Todo va

todo corono y digo by

rápido y furioso [música] como el zom

y ha metido trabajo que seguro que tú

[música][canto] no metes. Si salgo con

la banda puede que hagamos triplete.

Compramos [música] 19 y la [canto]

convertimos en fullet.

Lo meten [música] por un crucero, eso tú

no lo ves. Hablando con un parcero y con

un criando solo en un guero. Lloré

alguna vez mi mente piensa en dinero y

se [música] acumula soludeo. Me gritaban

cuidado los feo. Si yo narroto

[música][canto] lo que veo. Me dirán

cirilo. En el patio o en el recreo

[canto]

con los presos y con los reos. Guarden

chicha. Un tiroteo. Son los míos.

Paleo, no te pasé que mi barrio també.

[música]

No te pasé que también hay palestino y

portuguese. Si te pasa, tú verás

[música] que España y usa se parece. En

mi plaza una mita en huesón tiene un

niño [música] 13.

Todas la nose [canto]

lo que hay. Ay, ay, lo [canto] que hay.

Todo

[canto] coron

aquí como conex

[canto]

aquí [música]

como

Nos famos lai.

[música][canto]
