Para Mi Es Como...

Alright.
Many don't know what HIP HOP is, or what's behind it.
And it's normal, no one is born
knowing and I understand that
many were not explained and
others were explained wrong.
Don't judge if you don't know,
open your minds and
you will be aware of all
that you have in front of you but
that you still can't see.
Someone said that if you live with
a closed fist you will never have
anything the day you open your hand.
Sometimes you learn by talking,
but the wise are wise
because when a wiser person spoke
they knew how to listen.
They asked me: "but you
being intelligent, how do you
dress, speak, and listen to
the same music as those people?"
And I said: easy, because I'm not
different from those people and
precisely because I'm intelligent I chose the most favorable path.
"Favorable?" -They said-
Wearing giant pants
and starving instead
of getting a profitable job?".
Favorable, yes, because I said,
What's more favorable and
profitable than seeking to live happily?
A man must be brave,
and consistent, where the current takes you
doesn't have to
necessarily be the place that suits you best; and that's not
being rebellious, that's self-love.
Sometimes we hear phrases and don't fully understand their message
Would you rather regret what you did, or what
you never dared to do because you were cowardly?
It's okay to be normal when you've decided to be normal, now
Is it okay to be normal when you dreamed of being special?
Dreaming shouldn't be just waiting
for a more promising future, dreaming should be accompanied by actively seeking what makes you feel happier and better.
And for me, that's HIP HOP,
it's striving for improvement,
discontent but not
without reason, it's setting a
destination and being yourself
and not a pre-established model choosing what your path should be.
The things you do are what make you, so do what you know and you'll know what you're worth.
