X Vida (part. Lil Supa)

Let the drama unfold, kid
Another free verse like a kid at fifteen
Yeah, alright
I never gave up, and with hip hop, I’ll go to the grave
Yeah, yeah

I started with this dream, rapping since I was young
With some struggles, visions of being the one
The grades weren’t high, I didn’t stand out in class
I wanted to fly too, but my wings were broken fast

The soul gets tired, especially when faith runs low
The mirror screaming not to accept defeat, you know
It says: Get up or die, tie your boots tight
This shit is real, you can see it in our sight

Nobody knows how to live right, it’s all like a freestyle
Puppy for San Luis, that’s what Lil in Maracay
I move like a samurai, stealthy as I glide
Nobody knows pain until a brother dies

From the sky, I have a cloak that covers me in the fight
Even though my dad's gone, he knows I did what’s right
I took care of the family, performed shows anywhere
Bought a house for mom, and if she wants, she’ll show off, yeah

I keep living and watching, smoking on the roof
If fame says it loves you, man, don’t believe that truth
The city inspires me, traps me, makes me dizzy
I keep sharpening my pencil, doesn’t matter who it is (yeah)

Hey, yeah, Gera
Ah
Yeah

It’s been over twenty winters, I carved lines in a thousand notebooks
Working since I wake up to see us again, that’s my hook
I deciphered many secrets in captivity, laid out plans
Our legacy will become eternal, that’s the brand

I barely sleep thinking about achieving my dreams
Carving the manifesto plan 'cause I know what I mean
I give my hundred percent at every show I perform
Spitting verses so they remember me even after I’m gone

Learning from mistakes is part of the prize
Family values shaped my mind, that’s no surprise
In this society of authors, only geniuses get in
Who left their marks searching for the light, that’s how we win

With or without money, I never cared what they said
Found comfort in my sleepless nights, their hands in the sky spread
In parallel, I kept my feet on the ground
And took the risks I found on the warrior’s path, profound

They say God doesn’t punish, but that’s a lie
They say God doesn’t punish, but that’s a lie

For real
Hey, yeah
Yeah, Gera
From the lazy ones

The Sensei of the Dojo
For the world
Lil Supa
For life
Trauma
Yeah
