The Favorite
Yo'
What I was saying is that I’d like to make a song
That, that motivates the kids, you know?
But it’s not like I’m gonna tell them
I don’t know if I have the image to be giving advice or anything, but
I’m the favorite, I'
Of my mom, my kids, and my hood
That’s why I don’t compete, I'
Thanks to God I’m grateful for becoming who I am
Back then I was just a kid, yeah
I came out of a dead-end street that I now represent
And it’s not a myth, uh-huh
In the end, calm came and my biggest prize is Austincito
In the name of Lucero
I swore to keep my money forever until I die
Loyalty to the hood, some hitmen
Who fed me and gave me a few bucks for the daily grind
Yeah-yeah-yeah, and I stood up for my respect
I hit back at the one who humiliated me, he got the full weight
We bought a few kilos, headed north
And acting like an artist, I’ve got seven passports now
So, personally, I had a mother
Who, poor as she was, gave me everything she could
My advice to these kids making music now
Is don’t talk about things you didn’t have to go through
I’ve sung about what I’ve lived
But that doesn’t mean I’m proud of it
Nope, not at all
I left it all behind, just smoke weed now
I was never a junkie, well, I’ve been
Since I was little, I always wanted to be a powerful man
I grew up with a few buddies, those who don’t believe in anything
Spoiled and all, a bit of a troublemaker
And I was a delinquent and a killer
Thanks to God, He put me on my path, another way
Amen, now I celebrate with wine
Following my mother’s advice, always walk straight, I'
And remember that in the end, everything comes to light
Honor, loyalty, and respect, that’s the key
Ahem
And until the end of my days
Until the oxygen runs out
And the rain comes up from below and the sea stays still
I’ll keep representing my relatives in decency
And I swear to that, capisce?
Meanwhile, I’ll keep learning
Because in the end, when you’re gone, I’ll be the one taking care of the family
Remember, whoever comes
We’re the Favorites, prra
