A Mi Mamá

(Elvira Montana)

I have a heart that is too big and I know that many people take advantage of that
I have friends who were killed and friends who are in prison for bad steps
Many people who want to enjoy what's mine and were not part of the process
It's not that I'm arrogant, it's that not everyone deserves access to my life

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyes
I don't sing along with anyone because the one who sings along with the lame ends up limping
Envy and hatred are evident in their faces because they look at me sideways
I have people who kill for me, I don't have to stain my hands with red

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyes
I don't sing along with anyone because the one who sings along with the lame ends up limping
Envy and hatred are evident in their faces because they look at me sideways
I have people who kill for me, I don't have to stain my hands with red

My mom warned me, but I didn't listen, and the next day it happened to me
I shook hands with them and they cut off my arm, she always has the right
I learned to console myself because no one hugged me when I fell
They shot bullets of hatred and envy, but none of them hit me

I am a daughter of God, but I have demons that roam my mind
Because of those demons, I live in the past and have never enjoyed the present
I may look clean, but don't be fooled, I was raised in the heat
And even if my pencil runs out of lead, I am aware of their intentions

They come for the benefit they can get from me, not for me as a person
They don't know the sacrifice, you are not clear on how this shit works
It's clear how insecure they are when they have to talk about me and mention me
I'm like Thor and the hammer, only I can bear the weight of this crown

Mom, don't worry, they can't touch Elvira on the street
Even if I don't say it often, you are my queen and you know I love you
And even if you feel like I don't listen to you, I take your advice and complaints to heart
And trust that I don't have fake friends, I only have my brothers

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyes
I don't sing along with anyone because the one who sings along with the lame ends up limping
Envy and hatred are evident in their faces because they look at me sideways
I have people who kill for me, I don't have to stain my hands with red

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyes
I don't sing along with anyone because the one who sings along with the lame ends up limping
Envy and hatred are evident in their faces because they look at me sideways
I have people who kill for me, I don't have to stain my hands with red

They have to sit down for class, a lot of people out there
Say that I am the one, say that I am what they admire the most
When we started, none of us saw it
And they can envy the whole world
