lyrics

Insert here your idol of the year
Don’t let it persevere
And denounce all your fears
Insert here your rival of the year
Don’t let it persevere
This is gotta be your year

Bridgetown I’m repping Pomona and more
Even if my city asked for divorce
Cannot avoid I rep to the core
Cannot avoid I rep to the core
But I was born in Mexico
Culture in my veins I can’t let it go
Pops had a plan had to let them know
We going to the states find a better road
Oh, look at us
America promised a dream and we trust
But mama still working it’s never enough
Only thing certain American lust
I don’t, take it for granted
I’m proud of my city the trees that we planted
I know that my neighbors think I’m a bandit
But look at the growth it’s only organic
Oh, now we know
Ain’t nothing free didn’t expect it though
All I really want is a chance to vote
Get POC in the electoral
Representation
For people of color throughout all the nation
Representation
For people of color throughout all the nation

Insert here your idol of the year
Don’t let it persevere
And denounce all your fears
Insert here your rival of the year
Don’t let it persevere
This is gotta be your year

Passionate
Resonance
At times I get stuck in my passiveness
Believing that I can’t be resilient
Gotta fight for my people and the millions
Millions of people at war
Fighting themselves they can’t afford
Fight for themselves afraid of a war
The only thing working is working for more

Dinero
Un millón de pesos
Eso es lo que quiero
Eso lo prefiero
La libertad es cara
Pero no tengo nada
Nada que perder
Así debe suceder

Insert here your idol of the year
Don’t let it persevere
And denounce all your fears
Insert here your rival of the year
Don’t let it persevere
This is gotta be your year
