El Maestro

Of course, nothing is easy, miss said expensive
And money is money, good or bad
And walking without it, I'm not used to

Sometimes I lose, yes, but I keep going and it lightens me up
If when I die, I only take the sin
Better like Tetris, I keep fitting in

I didn't want or know how, but I learned
In cold and in sun, working hard
Besides, the salary goes quickly

Damn, it hurts to look back where I grew up
One or two fools who remember me
And some friends that I think I lost

Sleepless, but I get up early
I'm with the foreman of the work who gave us permission
And even though his appearance is bad
He helps you out because he's been through that gap himself

The guy pulls us by the ear
Puts pressure because the new guys are tough
He's bossy, the guy is Mexican
And he's strict because even for bad things there are rules

He grabbed the hammer and hangs it
And sometimes he gets bitter, he gets angry
We know he gets mad if he kicks the ladder
Because his job is to lead even if it hurts the people

And I play corridos from Del
To feel like a badass, also Maka's songs
If I'm throwing cement, we pull two or three
And the one from Puerto Rico who never lets me down is my sensei

My buddy from Honduras, two from Guatemala
These are warriors working hard
The soldier who never lets his guard down
That's right, dude, if I also used to cut their grass

And I call the family when I have time
I don't have a phone, they're nail machines in my chest
I'm crooked, but here I do it right
And I put on my armor because sometimes the architect sends me to the roof

Pressure is part of everything
Of course, I'm a man, sometimes I sweat, sometimes I cry
Sometimes I shout, why not, I also explode
And I take the bad decisions with ice

And it's normal when a guy gets upset
It's stress, that's why he gets mad
Take it easy, they'll send you back to your land
Junior, give him a touch to calm him down, the one who stinks

The boss doesn't want trouble
They pay me to lead, they know I hate complaints
Here I pay overtime
And don't go stealing because we don't nail you to the beast

The check and half the rent are gone
What I sent home, I threw a party for my daughter
It doesn't look like it, but everything costs
And I spent the weed money because I lent three hundred to Macetas

And I already stopped the popsicle guy
When I don't have money, the wise man lends me, he knows about turns
And the circles under his eyes look tougher
I gave him twenty because he reminded me of my grandma

Everything's normal, dude, I'm almost done
Midday and the day took me to the canton
He brought me but he taught me
Set an example, that's why they call him boss

Tired of moving tripods
I get home, all I want to do is rest
And I go to Area 51, that's what I call the joint I smoke
Because it sends me to Neptune

Where are you going, cowboy, your zip phillie is here
I have matches to light a damn kush phillie
I'm going to connect with some Martians
And when I can, I'm going to make myself a damn tunnel like a boss

To whoever is in the desert, guide me there
Don't leave him thirsty and make him arrive
Even barefoot and with a scorpion
That's it

A cross for those who didn't make it
And for those who never arrived, may they find peace
God, I ask for the one who can't swim
Watch out

For the one who came and left his mom
And lost his family for going to pull
Thank you for another day
Sorry, mom, I love you

Hey friend, yes, friend
Get in, dude, it's cool
Did they leave you alone or what
Hmmmm, they're worthless
