Dios del Asfalto

threw a wish in the air, For a railroad to go so far, With Central Pacific on track, And Union Pacific never looking back. (Chorus) Hey, I just built a railroad, And this is crazy, But I worked all day, though, To make it maybe! It went from coast to coast, A land to explore, From Sacramento to Omaha, Oh, what a score! (Verse 2) Chinese boys with will and strength, Digging day and night, Irish too, on Union's line, Working hard, the stars align. (Chorus) Hey, I just built a railroad, And this is crazy, Six bucks a day, though, Not too hazy! With fifteen hours straight, Plenty sweat and strife, While the buffalo fled fast, It changed their life! (Bridge) The bosses led the charge, Stanford and others large, They made the fat stacks, While we trailed in their tracks. (Verse 3) Food was scarce, but we made do, Beans and bread, that's what we chew, With picks and shovels in our hands We'd tunnel through mountains and the lands. (Chorus) Hey, I just laid a railroad, And for some maybe, Cities sprouted up along the flow, To fortune, we say! The impacts so profound, For Natives taken off course, Oh, their lands were lost in greed, But progress forged the path. (Outro) From down below in the bay, Up to the place out in the clay, Transcontinental fates all changed, A history strangely situated! Hey, I just laid a railroad, And this is wilding! We slaved so hard for gold, That's the story, baby!

[Verse 1] Clock in, 10 PM, gotta run the store Night shift grind, seen it all before Lights hum low, but my game stay bright In the aisles, stocking dreams under neon light Pushing carts through the frozen section Deli crew wild, no time for correction Breakroom smells like burnt coffee and stress Payroll tight, but I still do my best [Chorus] Night shift hustle, stacking that bread Barcode life, got the scanner on red Clock don’t stop, so we do what we do Big Y livin’, gotta see the night through [Verse 2] Late-night lurkers, coupons in hand Granny with the cents-off, she don’t understand Teenagers wildin’, tryna boost some beer But I seen that move like a cashier seer Frozen truck’s late, gotta break down the load Stockroom packed like a Tetris code Overnight crew got jokes for days Talk smack, stack shelves, then part our ways [Chorus] Night shift hustle, stacking that bread Barcode life, got the scanner on red Clock don’t stop, so we do what we do Big Y livin’, gotta see the night through [Bridge] Price check drama on aisle three Milk spill mess, man, that’s all on me Manager mode, gotta hold it down When the sun comes up, I’m ghost in this town [Verse 3] Boss calls in, says "keep it tight" Gotta watch the cameras, keep it light Dreamin’ of a day shift, 9 to 5 But the night grind’s mine, and I keep it live [Chorus - Repeat & Fade Out] Night shift hustle, stacking that bread Barcode life, got the scanner on red Clock don’t stop, so we do what we do Big Y livin’, gotta see the night through

[Verse] Beats in my brain, sharp as a barber blade, Echoes in the alleys where the hustlers get paid. Sweat on the pavement, dreams in the jet stream, Chasing neon nights, city flickers like a meme. [Chorus] Bounce with the rhythm, let the speakers explode, Turn a cracked sidewalk into a gold-paved road. Drums on the heart, basslines in the soul, Spit fire in the dark, watch the story unfold. [Verse 2] Verses hit heavy, like thunder with no storm, Heat in the cipher, every word born deformed. Foreman gloves grip tight, swinging words raw, Every bar hits harder, no space for the flaw. [Bridge] Life's a corner store, aisles stacked with stories, From Ramen noodles to puffed-up glories. Pick a bag of metaphors, cash in on dreams, Rip the seams, let it spill light on the schemes. [Verse 3] Flipping out phonemes, Olympics of syntax, Running laps with my shadow on the train tracks. Graffiti nights whisper secrets to steel beasts, While I plot bars over beats, gourmet feasts. [Chorus] Bounce with the rhythm, let the speakers explode, Turn a cracked sidewalk into a gold-paved road. Drums on the heart, basslines in the soul, Spit fire in the dark, watch the story unfold.

[Verse] The alarm clock sings its morning tune Rise and shine There’s work to do soon Look in the mirror Oh what a sight But today’s the day You’ll win the fight [Chorus] If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you trust and never rest You will always pass the test If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) [Verse 2] The day feels long and the road is tough Hills to climb And the weather’s rough But grit inside It starts to bloom There's no mountain you won’t consume [Chorus] If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you trust and never rest You will always pass the test If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) [Bridge] Doubt knocks loud at the aching door But you’ve been here a hundred times before Each misstep is a dance you’ve learned The flame of hope is deeply burned [Chorus] If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap) If you trust and never rest You will always pass the test If you must Then do your best! (clap, clap)

What were we? For time goes by, and we face the truth What we once held now slips from view The words we said don’t mean a thing Like promises we couldn’t bring Like promises we couldn’t bring The nights are long, and I’m cold inside I reach for you, but I lose the fight The love we had is now a ghost A faded memory I miss the most I walk these streets we used to roam Now it’s just me, and I’m so alone The laughter’s gone, replaced with fear I still hear it, but you’re not here I wonder if you ever still care Or if you’ve learned to breathe this air Do I still live inside your mind? Or am I just a shadow left behind? And I’m still walking down this road With pieces of my heart still in tow Time keeps moving, but love won’t fade It’s stuck inside the mess we made But the pain I feel won’t go away Cause you set fire to me every day This love we shared was once so real But I still can’t tell what we were meant to be [Chorus] What were we? What were we? I only hope that we will be But I know that time will slowly heal us So I pray that time will make us whole again We were something special, something true But I think we should have known when we Could barely speak to each another We were broken from the start.

[Intro] [guitar] [Verse 1] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Suspended between yesterday and tomorrow, in an endless present And we were together, defying time Creating a world, our hearts as witnesses [acoustic guitar] [Verse 2] These walls are empty and dark, The water I drink threatens to intoxicate me Your scent revives my soul You who support me so we don’t fall, You who support me so we don’t fall [Chorus] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Suspended between yesterday and tomorrow, in an endless present And we were together, defying time Creating a world, our hearts as witnesses [bridge] [tenor sax] [Verse 3] No matter the clock and its hungry hands No matter the world and its desperate calls In this fragile bubble we’ve woven together Eternity is measured in exchanged glances [Outro] And we were together, forgetting the dawning day Creators of a time that belongs only to us And we will be together when other dawns arrive You who support me so I don’t sink, You who support me so I don’t sink.

Camina una milla con estos Louboutins Pero no usan estas mierdas donde yo vengo No estoy odiando, solo te lo estoy diciendo Estoy tratando de hacerte saber por lo que he pasado Dos pies en la tierra roja, falda de escuela Caña de azúcar, callejones, tres trabajos que me tomó años salvar Pero tengo un boleto en ese avión La gente tiene mucho que decir, pero no sabe una mierda sobre dónde me hicieron O cuántos pisos tuve que fregar solo para pasar de donde vengo Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami (Dieciséis en el medio de Miami) He estado despierto toda la noche, tratando de hacerme rico He estado trabajando, trabajando, trabajando, trabajando Trabajando en mi mierda Ordeñando todo el juego dos veces Tengo que vivir como vivo He estado trabajando, trabajando, trabajando, trabajo Trabajando en mi mierda Ahora consigue este trabajo Ahora consigue este trabajo Ahora consigue este trabajo Trabajando en mi mierda Puedes odiarlo o amarlo El ajetreo y el esfuerzo son lo único en lo que confío Pura sangre en un ladrillo de barro antes del presupuesto Chica blanca en esa mierda de pac Mi pasión era irónica y mis sueños eran poco comunes Supongo que me volví loco, el primer trato me cambió Robbed blind básicamente me violó Corrí a través de la mierda de toro como un Matador Solo me hizo más loco y firme para ir a por ellos y emparejar el marcador Así que, fui más duro, estudié a los Carter hasta que me ofrecieron un trato Dormí frío en el suelo grabando a las 4 de la mañana Y ahora estoy pasando el examen como un abogado Arte inmigrante ignorante Tu mala intención era un seguro para mi beneficio Odio ser desconsiderado pero la industria tomó mi inocencia Demasiado tarde ahora estoy en esta perra No conoces la mitad Esta mierda se pone seria Chicas del Valle haciendo mamadas por Louboutins ¿Cómo llamas a eso? Perdidamente enamorado Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami Sin dinero, sin familia, dieciséis en el medio de Miami (Dieciséis en el medio de Miami) He estado despierto toda la noche, tratando de hacerme rico He estado trabajando, trabajando, trabajando, trabajando Trabajando en mi mierda Exprimí todo el juego dos veces Tengo que vivir como vivo He estado trabajando, trabajando, trabajando, trabajando Trabajando en mi mierda

Casoh’s in the kitchen, it’s time to eat, Stackin’ up the plates, oh, can’t be beat. Burgers, pizza, fries on the way, Every single bite makes the Earth sway. He’s got the appetite, can’t be denied, Every meal’s a mountain that he’s gonna ride. With every step, the ground starts to quake, Watch out, world, Casoh’s on the take! (Pre-Chorus) From the snacks to the feast, nothing too small, Casoh eats it all, he answers the call. With every bite, the world feels the shake, Casoh’s hungry, time for the Earth to quake! (Chorus) Casoh’s eating so much, the ground can’t take, Every bite, every step makes the Earth shake. From the snacks to the feast, it's a natural disaster, Casoh’s hunger is only getting faster! He’s got the munchies, he’s on a roll, Eating his way to the center of the world’s soul. With every move, it’s a mighty quake, Casoh’s eating, and the Earth starts to shake! (Verse 2) Casoh’s got the sushi, wings on the side, He’s clearing the buffet, no place to hide. Chompin’ down tacos, yeah, he’s got the flow, When Casoh eats, the whole world knows. He’s the king of the kitchen, the food’s his throne, No one can stop him, he’s in the zone. With every bite, he makes the Earth shift, Casoh’s hunger, it’s a seismic gift! (Pre-Chorus) From the snacks to the feast, nothing too small, Casoh eats it all, he answers the call. With every bite, the world feels the shake, Casoh’s hungry, time for the Earth to quake! (Chorus) Casoh’s eating so much, the ground can’t take, Every bite, every step makes the Earth shake. From the snacks to the feast, it's a natural disaster, Casoh’s hunger is only getting faster! He’s got the munchies, he’s on a roll, Eating his way to the center of the world’s soul. With every move, it’s a mighty quake, Casoh’s eating, and the Earth starts to shake! (Bridge) Cookies, cake, ice cream too, Casoh’s got the whole world in his view. The Earth trembles, the world can’t keep, Every time he eats, the ground starts to leap! (Chorus) Casoh’s eating so much, the ground can’t take, Every bite, every step makes the Earth shake. From the snacks to the feast, it's a natural disaster, Casoh’s hunger is only getting faster! He’s got the munchies, he’s on a roll, Eating his way to the center of the world’s soul. With every move, it’s a mighty quake, Casoh’s eating, and the Earth starts to shake! (Outro) So here’s to Casoh, the eater supreme, With every meal, he’s living the dream. The Earth might tremble, but there’s no mistake, Casoh’s eating, and the ground will shake!

[Verse] Under the starry skies, Mount Kenya high, There’s a rhythm in the air, watch it magnify, Lupita’s shine like the morning dew, Dan Aceda’s songs carry stories true. [Chorus] Oh, Kenya's stars, shining so bright, From the savannah plains to the city nights, In every heart, they leave a glow, Karibu Kenya, where the talents flow. [Verse 2] From Nyashinski’s beats to Sauti Sol’s tune, Voices rising high, chasing the moon, Juliani raps of struggles and dreams, On this fertile land, hope always beams. [Bridge] Kwa jua kali na bahari ya bluu, Wanariadha wetu wanakimbia kwa shauku, Eliud Kipchoge, at the finish line, Breaking limits, crossing time. [Chorus] Oh, Kenya's stars, shining so bright, From the savannah plains to the city nights, In every heart, they leave a glow, Karibu Kenya, where the talents flow. [Verse 3] The laughter of Churchill fills the day, Blessing the nation in his unique way, With every step they inspire the dream, Kenya's heat burns like a steady beam.
