Carta Del Alma (part. Lil Supa y Gona)
Akapellah
Letter from the Soul (feat. Lil Supa and Gona)
If I have the sunlight, I’ve got a foundation
For a new shot
I’m not scared anymore, no
Life is rising in me, and I leave it in my song
Yo, April 28, 2025
The exact date where in this document I made my mark
Thirteen years have passed since that day in San Jacinto
When I blew the roof off and everything changed
Through this letter, I want to make it clear
That before being an artist, I’m a person and I always give thanks
I’m talking to mothers, fathers, kids, no matter the race
Or social class, or any of that bullshit the world is based on
As Cruz Cova taught me, don’t kill, don’t lie, don’t steal
Even if that’s all the rage now
From scratch, I’m all heart, I’m there for my brothers
A hug can really help someone drowning in pain
Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever said this
But to be honest, I’m a bit arrogant and I play it modest
Money means shit to me, I connect with affection
I’m suspicious of the righteous, from the opposing side
Mom, since you’re gone, I’m not afraid of death
Because I know that when that day comes, I’ll see you again
Losing you made me strong, a leader, and braver
Having you made me noble, loving, and understanding
And to you, my child, even if I don’t write that often
I’d tear off my skin to keep you warm if it’s cold
Without you, nothing I’ve built would exist
Because you were the light when I was at my lowest
Also to those who doubted in the past
Because they motivated me to be who I am today
With my best wishes, I sign off respectfully
Pedro Elias Aquino Cova, just an ordinary kid
And if I have the sunlight
I’ve got a new shot
I’m not scared anymore, no (not scared)
And I say it in my song (and I say it here)
I say it without fear, without ego, and my head held high
I own it if I stumble, I always get up stronger
Because I accept the pain, I come back through the tears
I speak from the heart because I know we’re not saints
But here we are standing so we can be covered by His mantle of light
And I offer you the song of my soul with nothing in return (nothing)
Just your presence in my life makes us wise
I embrace the laughter of my genius kids every day
And we give thanks for giving us strength in adversity
Filling me with faith, well-being, health, and abundance
And letting me know that through perseverance
You can achieve the patience of consistency
Calming my anxieties when I almost lose hope
When all I have left is the memory of your scent
I remember nostalgically the hugs from afar
And tears fall remembering my childhood
When I went to play rubber ball on the court
With Roland, José David, Juan Quintacho, near the house
The real kids, the people who embrace us
I didn’t know resentment, much less distrust
No envy or fake people, no luxuries or facades
Love without interest, pure friendship, my people
The years go by and it’s a different time, new places
But I keep the spirit of those who rest in peace
My friend Pedro, my partner in the struggle
Here’s your brother Marlon in the bad times and the good
Mutual respect, since day one in the trenches
When I say Aka’, everyone says
If I have the sunlight, I’ve got a foundation (when I say Aka’, everyone says)
For a new shot (yeah, and everyone says)
I’m not scared anymore, no (yeah)
And I say it in my song (Funky Fresco, forever)
Yeah, Lil Supa, the pride of Maracay
Alongside Akapellah, the Goldo Funky, the heaviest in freestyle
Going hard like no one else
From Casalta, with Gona since day one, you know
Faker, yo
It’s Pneuma
OBG, yeah
