El Jhota
Out of the Block (feat. Elegant Art)
We're trying to break out of the block
Searching for the light to shine on us
Trading our sorrows for some joy
Praying a rosary, an Ave Maria
I wish I could start my life over
I don't want any more trouble with the cops
Their mom and dad never liked me
'Cause they don't trust a thug, you see
I got God riding shotgun with me
Had some cash but my pockets were torn
I drink rum and I go a little wild
I'm not perfect, I make mistakes
I ask for forgiveness if I messed up
I reach out a hand to help
There'll always be food on my table
Till the grave, I stay loyal
Singing, flying, touching the sky
Making my money, I broke out of the ghetto
Sweating, fighting for what I want
The train ain't coming, I'm driving it now
Counting bills, stacking more
Here everyone has their share
Breaking out of the block to move ahead
Leaving the ruins and the bad behind
Singing, flying, touching the sky
Making my money, I broke out of the ghetto
Sweating, fighting for what I want
The train ain't coming, I'm driving it now
From the street to the street
I come from the bottom of the city
Where you're either a sheep or a wolf
The street has been my reality
Drugs, guns, and all the thefts
But I found my talent
And I'm gonna give my family everything
My sword is the music
And pulling the kids out of the mud
Don't hit me with that Chaka
If you had a gun hidden as a kid
Now at home, the table's full
And that was always the goal
As a kid, I chased my dreams
And persevering, man, I found them
They doubted, but I never did
Hahaha, and I shut them up
From saying to doing, there's a big gap
I'm moving forward strong and straight, I seize the chance when it comes
And my music hit in the low-income neighborhoods, it caught on
And the people on the street identified with it
We're trying to break out of the block
Searching for the light to shine on us
Trading our sorrows for some joy
Praying a rosary, an Ave Maria
I wish I could start my life over
I don't want any more trouble with the cops
Their mom and dad never liked me
'Cause they don't trust a thug, you see
