Entre Hierva, Polvo y Plomo (part. Los Dos Carnales y Gerardo Diaz)

He had a reputation as a thug, lived that way since he was a kid
Between grass, dust, and lead
And his father was a dealer who didn’t respect anyone
He was the one who showed him the way

Ramiro was fifteen when his father told him
You’re gonna take this job
You’re responsible for your life, you know how to handle it
In Hidalgo County

Ramiro swam across the famous Rio Bravo
And that’s how he took that job
The buyers of the dust in Hidalgo County
Were already waiting for him

He passed the test of fire, to the old man’s pride
He crossed the river many times
With grass and boxes of ammo, he started to like the dust
Until he became a junkie

One day his father told him he wouldn’t give him any drugs
Not to mention any money
Ramiro replied: You were the one who taught me
And now I’m dying for it

Without giving him a moment, he pulled out his pistol
And shot his father
But he saved one bullet, to shoot himself
In front of his mother
