Lo Que Daría

It was my gift, patience was my gift
Drops of sweat ran down my face
I tell you, it was my gift, patience was my gift
Because I come from below and wanted something better

And I didn't doubt, I knew I would achieve it
A voice told me: You will arrive, I could already see it
Few friends, few people believed me
Because Rosita saw it, you don't know what I would give

Back in the depths of transportation
Without inspiration, discipline is the support
I said it before, that doesn't only apply to sports
Dangerous neighborhood, they move it with or without a cut

Where I come from, death is normal
You either end up in jail or at a funeral
I saw the great ones
Who would bet on me and my dreams?
It would cost me more

Because now this comes out of me
If I weren't out on the street selling all kinds of crap
If they knew in detail that one day I left that life behind
I didn't want the life of a delinquent

What would become of me? I would lose
My family, those who loved me
Today, if I succeed, it's because I wanted it that way
With patience, everything would be achieved

It was my gift, patience was my gift
Drops of sweat ran down my face
I tell you, it was my gift, patience was my gift
Because I come from below and wanted something better

And I didn't doubt, I knew I would achieve it
A voice told me: You will arrive, I could already see it
Few friends, few people believed me
Because Rosita saw it, you don't know what I would give

I saw some rise, they wouldn't let me play
I swallowed my pride, my moment will come
I told myself once, you don't know
Crazy, everything I've been through

It's been a while, I'm not ungrateful
I know who lent me a hand without asking for anything in return
I was training hard, sometimes fed up
And you don't see progress immediately

People I've lost, my God, what pain
People who have failed, I hold no grudge
I hold nothing now, he says he loves me
Those who miss me, I hang up the call

You don't know everything I would do
What I would give to see you another day
I got everything I wanted
You're not here to see, I'll tell you in another life

It was my gift, patience was my gift
Drops of sweat ran down my face
I tell you, it was my gift, patience was my gift
Because I come from below and wanted something better

And I didn't doubt, I knew I would achieve it
A voice told me: You will arrive, I could already see it
Few friends, few people believed me
Because Rosita saw it, you don't know what I would give
