Ill Zakiel - Mexican American

Hey take a look in the mirror Güero, milk weed
Listen being Mexican American is tough
Anglo's jump all over you if you don't speak English perfectly
Mexicans jump all over you if you don't speak Spanish perfectly
We got to be twice as perfect as everybody else

I've been trying to keep it out the box
Independent hustle is the key to every lock
Working non stop until they see me in a drop
Haters praying for my downfall stay on my jock
I just keep it moving building one win at a time
Doesn't matter big or small I continue to grind
Everytime I fall I feel it strengthen up my mind
Learning from your failures essential to the climb

Sigo enfocado en mi trabajo
Fuera de la caja original es lo que ago
Echandole ganas pa delante nunca paro
Los que me odian rezando que me quieren abajo
Y cada ves que fallo no pierdo yo gano
Lecciones me enseñan yo sigo y avanzo
No importa si me caigo you sigo y me levanto
Y Poco a poquito lo vamos logrando

See I'm already used to being underrated
Always been Underdog Underestimated
But I still keep going every single day
I focus on my hustle be vessel for the inspiration
And I never gave a damn about a critic
Only thing I care about is how I'm gonna get it
Focus on my family my music stay committed
Focus on my fans for the love that they be given

Ya estoy acostumbrado a ser subestimado
A ser el desvalido y siempre despreciado
Pero cada día sigo progresando
Con pura inspiración los sigo animando
No me importa si me siguen criticando
Yo nomas me enfoco a seguir ganando
Me enfoco a los que me siguen apoyando Familia, mis fans los quiero los amo

Long game I be grinding to get top 5
Aim high or you might as well just not try
But this is bigger then me homie it's for all my
People listening so they can keep a strong mind
And keep it hustling keep pushing never stop strive
Wanna get to where you're going it's a long drive
Trust the process and work hard at all times
Even if you gotta go against the grain like combines

Trabajando para ser uno de los mejores
En el mundo se que tengo grandes ambiciones
Es más grande que yo es pa los que me oyen
Pa que se pongan las pilas no se me aflojen
Quieren llegar a su destino va tomar tiempo
Nunca paren para nada y no tengan miedo
Quiero que sepan que si pueden lograr sus sueños
Sigan el camino con un gran esfuerzo

And we got to prove to the Mexicans how Mexican we are
And we got to prove to the Americans how American we are
We got to be more Mexican then the Mexicans
And more American then the Americans
Both at the same time it's exhausting
Man nobody knows how tough it is to be a Mexican American
