lyrics

Verse
It almost took him out glad he made it
After getting shot at point blank ranges
He woke from the coma to his amazement
He said oye Trop! I know where you’re head is
Dale que tu puede, no te quite Pa’
You got to go get it, evita lo que mas
Te detiene te conviene yo quiero que tu llege
It wasn’t what he said but more how he said it
To best represent it his support's authentic
A vote of confidence in the O I’m embedded
Cynics won’t get it, they're not suppose too
Abdias said it best “Spit what you go through”
La pista yo la tiro, lets make this move
Controla tu destino, a young Latinos’ view
Not about race color or creed
Pero tengo el orgullo free up boundaries
hard on my city dead the soft image
Do it for the public I love and its privilege

Chorus
This one right here is for my people
Where you at?
Another one for my people,
hear me out
I see it all so clearly now
I’m already looking out when you come up out

Verse
grind-black-tops hop on stage
the lifestyle is subterranean
go way back with Frankie, Wich, & David
poolside pete timmy bark in cadence
It's Ra, Jae Pezz, O, and Jkid
damn Machete ain't seen you in ages
Brian did time upstate didn't faze him
Never the less keep me on rotation
brad on some other shit it nathan
no call no show no traces
X is a trip won't let him slip
Ely step in before he meets my fist
I know i tend to flip but the point is this
you've been there through my darkest
Rich said Trop remember you're an artist
JT said drop nothing but the hardest
promise but it's a work in progress
el tio, the first, to get me started
Fan broke down the recording process
And focus keeps me up on my target
It's a long-shot most cut their losses
when u cross Semoran danger caution
for the women in my life I'm an angel fallin'
for an outsider listening strangely foreign
I hone my performance gauge and go in
do it for those who came before me


Chorus
This one right here is for my people
Where you at?
Another one for my people,
hear me out
I see it all so clearly now
I’m already looking out when you come up out
