Talento de barrio [intro] [English translation]

look kid, what you doing?

here, you know... very despised (or bored ???)

nuthin' to do

I'm from the hood

today life's a stage

that puts your hood talent/skills to the test

hood! yeah!

despite the shadow of death

everything I've seen

has made me stronger

hoy la vida es un escenario

Barrio!

money, the cats (b1atches), the parties, pleasures I want'em all

I carry on

I need

a car

a house

more clothes

the money

I'm tired of being broke (you know!)

about war I ask about the mythical of the point

when I paralize I scrutinize

but brother, repent

Christ wants to help you, convert

he wants to give you life, wants to save you

because he says that death is coming soon

Hallelujah!

but nobody listens

no one is interested in taking the first step

if things are cool and the banks are full

other business I reject

in a while, the hood, be calm

you can't see a single soul around

right? like evil can exist

but I ain't scared of dying

think about it, if you're ready

because you've seen it yourself

and you've heard the screaming:

RUN RUN!

those from the hood are shooting, run!

get up don't let yourself be killed so

RUN RUN!

you remember the end of the story

the guy who had the guts

his family was robbed, we was kidnapped

burned his apartment

hoy la vida es un escenario

Barrio! Yeah!

todo lo que he visto

Yo soy de barrio

que pone a prueba el talento de barrio

dinero, las gatas, los parties, placeres yo los quiero to'

what's your ambition

wish I were in your position

you gotta thank God

that gave you a big blessing

has confusion

evil temptes to perdition

but you can go far taking the decision

dark paths where you see no light

but each one's gotta fight

and carry their one cross

you don't choose the tests

the tests choose you

life is like a coin

pick tails or cross

thinking about if I'll make it

listen tight, I ask you

how many (graduated with) honors students have on the streets

44 .... on high caliber lists

they'll go some "bang, bang, bang, bang" shooting free style

follow my example

I'm here in a softball tournament

instead of being on the major leagues

got wrapped up on alcohol

on the f*cking smoking

you're your adversary

quit the excuses

go out and conquer

your hood talent/hood skills

follow me?

you're right... I'm coming... to me
