El Mismo (part. Beto Vega)

I dreamed so far away
I was such a fool
It was all just a dream
Those were the lessons

I held on tight
Had to push through
It became my goal
To shut their mouths

What I had was worth it
Few would believe me
That I’d be someone

That there are social classes
That we shouldn’t mix
That I was born poor
And I’ll leave poor

I left the ranch
Not that much for me
'Cause I’m still the same
But with more cash

Always in boots and a hat
You see me in the ring
Taking a good drink

And if we hit it big with the roosters
You can bet it’s gonna last

Thanks to the man above
Who takes good care of me
I’ve never been caught
By that damn envy

Why does it show
Their falsehoods overflow
Seeing me so happy
They just can’t stand it

May Saint Jude watch over me
Wherever I walk
'Cause life is short

I’m not cocky
'Cause I’ve suffered
So much I’ve been through
I’m well seasoned now

And one who adores me
My lovely lady
Is the one who stayed
When there was barely clothes

I aimed high
Many didn’t believe
And I shut their mouths

And if they think I changed my luck
Honestly, they’re not wrong.
