Así Crecí

That's How I Grew Up

Don't blame me for having the short end
Don't blame me for being the one in the corner
Now it's mine and not the one who had it
Don't blame me if I already have the ribs

To a few who have already had funerals
I know the feds will take me soon
I know they're crazy because one day I'll shine
I'm on fire and I think the street is mine

That's how I grew up
Looking out the window watching them kill each other
Walking among the shovel, that's what I learned

That's how I grew up
Looking out the window watching them kill each other
Walking among the shovel, that's what I learned

I grew up among gunshots, among evil and a point
Every two weeks they buried a dead person
The kids sold to make money
To pay the rent, to dress and all that

I was always alone, that's why I took this life
No one cared and I begged for food
Upset with destiny, through vengeance
I found in the street, an illusion, a hope

Unfortunately, not all of us grow up in the same comforts and circumstances
Each head is a world apart
And sometimes our surroundings force us to find strength
Where opportunities are scarce
Only the strongest survive in this concrete jungle
And you'll only understand it when you find yourself in this position

I grew up in the projects with my mom and my three brothers
By 7th grade, I gave school a game over
I always wanted to have a Cuban chain, a Range Rover
A house with a pool and a rifle under the cover

The street taught me that I didn't want it
On the street, I was a big shot and scared in my roots
They tried to take me down and left me with scars
They ended my dad and the happy moments

I got into the game and started as a shooter
I started moving things up and it got better every time
I bought a gun, thirty-round clip, the magazine
And the AK I wanted with a snail clip

I recorded these words and put them for my kids
Because like me, they won't have a steady father
The cops came looking for me, they're outside
I don't know if I'll make it out alive, I don't know if I'll die this year

I followed the surgeon
Edu
We keep educating those who still don't believe
Farruko
The minors
You are the only one responsible for your destiny
Raise awareness and don't make the same mistake.
