Mi Familia

With dedication to those who don't give up!

You always had the reason until the last day I saw you
When you talked to me about that train that was coming for you
About those deep journeys you took around the world
And that I with my world wouldn't have a future
And here I am
With so much love for this rap
That I never imagined would help mom with
And where are you?, I wonder every hour
Like the unlucky castaway who talks to the waves

This career crushes anyone
I wish you would understand not tomorrow but now
That, even though nothing is fine today
I know that one day sitting down I'll listen to myself and laugh
About what I wrote to you in the simplest room
I know I need things that are useless to others
That most are guided by what others say
Not by decisions that the heart defines

Memories live in me every morning
When you talked to me about sailors who fear nothing
That in the sky there was a star that guided them
And if life were like the sea, they would never get lost

I stumble so much and am so complicated
Maybe because I celebrate a triumph by crying
And that drug you consume daily
And I wonder if it's worth more than having your parents by your side

On my side sometimes good sometimes bad
Because difficult life is also beautiful
And even if there's only one bread to close the night
I sleep so peacefully knowing my family is complete
It's my promise I'll never give up
I won't leave either, I won't disappoint
And if I see that this happens and nothing is going well
Don't worry about yourselves, I'll come up with something

That from yesterday and wishing today there won't be a worry
That we'll always have lunch together with inner peace
And even though this system puts pressure on love
Remember that the system didn't invent love

I'm grateful for my family, my family and my family
And the years they took care of my life
I'm grateful for my family, my family and my family
What they've done for me is never forgotten
I'm grateful for my family and my family and my family
For consoling me in lost battles
I'm grateful for my family, for my family, for my family

These blocks know about rap as they do about cold in the morning
It's like that tranquility that I feel when I arrive in the neighborhood
After having lost my mind
Facing more risks, those that also have paint

And to be happy to be able to cross these blankets alive
And feel that divine force that protects me
As soon as I turn off the power switch
I know one by one my memories will take over my mind
Today I regret with my soul not having been a better son
And having preferred to keep playing the rapper
With friends who left and others who are no longer alive
And sometimes visit me in my favorite dreams

I've been stubborn and I've had to pay for it dearly
And the times I failed with the people who love me
Without knowing that in this life nothing is forgotten
And that here is where wounds are paid and healed
I owe my father to never have slept hungry
To be humble and responsible in times of crisis

Grateful for God's hand
That put Aerophon in exchange for drugs or crimes
Although my mother worries when I don't call home for singing
I'm calm knowing that you'll always pray for me
For my friends, for my sisters
For my grandparents who I know miss
This cold morning that begins
Wrinkles my soul remembering my grandmother's reflection in the window
Waiting for her last son to cross the door
To be able to sleep peacefully in this house
That holds laughter in its walls
Of this little one running around the hallways

Listen to my rhymes
God willing everything will turn out better
And to relieve my family's debts
So my sisters can study in peace
And my parents never lack health
This trunk of memories is at the bottom of the sea
That I don't know, but one day I want to visit

I'm grateful for my family, my family and my family
And the years they took care of my life
I'm grateful for my family, my family and my family
What they've done for me is never forgotten
I'm grateful for my family and my family and my family
For consoling me in lost battles
I'm grateful for my family, for my family, for my family
