Lyrics
(Verse) Let me tell you how I feel right now/ I don’t worry bout the deal right now/ Head still high/ Cause I’ve been taught how to get by/ In rough times/ Problems are at their prime/ But don’t mind/ Soon it’ll all be fine/ These mexican lessons/ Truly are a blessing/ Because I don’t know what I would do without them/ During all this mayhem/ I’m a proud chicano/ Big Mexico - Americano/ Took the best of both sides/ It resides/ All inside/ My big mind/ Speak the language, broken by the schools/ Mix the spanglish, spoken by the foos/ I’m a vato, tried hard not to be a cholo/ Don’t need a gang I’ll be fine solo/ And I don’t cry no mo/ Pops said I gotta be a man, so I show no/ Single tear/ I cannot have fear/ In this world that’s so big/ You’ll snap if you’re a twig/ Altered Fiction, that means we live reality/ And it’s very scary, far from normality/ So most of the time I do have fear/ I saw a man on the corner with a sign saying that the end is near/ Screaming loud “it’s the second coming!”/ Shouting “Why aren’t y’all running?”/ Because I ain’t afraid/ I done made/ It thru 2012/ Plus I done pushed through all by myself/ It can’t be the apocalypse now/ If it is, well, hell, I’m pretty proud/ I’m proud of what I’ve done/ And awards, I maybe never won/ But deep down I still know I’m the best/ And I don’t need no test/ As some proof of my skill/ Cuz I’m ill/ Always thrill/ Have no chill/ With a will/ Like that of a warrior that kills/ For his land, but I feel/ What B-Real/ Said back in Cypress Hill/ That something hard you can’t Understand/ Is how someone just can/ Kill a man/ Killing one another/ Leave behind their mothers/ Make sisters and brothers/ Care for each other/ It’s really all madness/ Pleasures become sadness/ Nights are at their blackest/ Careful when you open your eyes, it can turn your mind to fragments/ Reality check I’m not trippin/ The homies, eses, boolin, crippin/ I can tell their sanity slippin/ See it in their eyes holding back tears from drippin/ They laugh it off, say it’s just the hood/ I live there too, so i understood/ What can make a man kill/ Survival, the world doesn’t stand still/ Just for anybody/ Life’s rocky/ And that’s what momma said/ She’s always telling me things that get to my head/ Helps free my mind of obscurity/ Even if I live far away from purity/ It’s dark outside, and don’t even got a flashlight/ But mami says I got one inside And it shines very bright/ Plus I got everything else I need, right?/ You have great tasting meal/ And a home/ Distractions for good feels/ And a very smart dome/ Got 2 legs and two arms/ And a body that can withstand harm/ 2 eyes so you can see/ True beauty that brings glee/ Straight to the eyes of the beholder/ And she says that I am the molder/ Of my life/ I can cut through all the evil just like a knife/ Maybe more/ Like a sword/ Though I miss my innocent days with dinosaurs/ Way before/ I knew the lore/ Of the poor/ And I once was the lord/ Of daydreams, all aboard/ A trip to la-la-land/ Is all I want, but right now I stand/ My feet are planted on the soil of real life/ And know I realize/ Even with ghetto eyes/ That we don’t need to fear, cuz we’ll fly/ Be just like butterflies/ What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger, so even though you might agonize/ Recognize/ That it’s what makes one beautiful, so glamorize/ Minimize/ The worries/ Life will pass you by in a hurry/ So just live, laugh, and love/ Do all of the above/ Because there’s beauty in the struggle/ It comes in a bundle/ Don’t forget, stay humble/ And you might trip, and you might tumble/ Because I swear that you won’t crumble/ So just take it from me/ And this is just a little thing I did for free/
