The poet talks about starting from nothing and building an empire. A key line translates to, ‘Slowly, I built an empire,’ showing the grind from small deals to major success. Xavi sings about staying strong and proving doubters wrong, all while honoring his mother’s support.
Y Poco A Poco Fui Creciendo Y La Vida Me EnseñóAnd little by little I grew up, and life taught me,
Que Tienes Que Ser Decente Con El Que Un Día Te Humillóthat you must be decent to the one who once humiliated you.
Bien Recuerdo Aquellos Tiempos Que Salimos Del LodoI clearly remember those times when we came out of the mud,
Cuando Andábamos A Pata Y Nadie Nunca Nos Pelówhen we walked everywhere and no one ever paid attention to us.
En La Esquina Me Veían Con Los PlebesThey used to see me on the corner with the boys,
Me Miraban Entre Los Enredesthey watched me caught up in the hustle,
Ch#ngándole Para Hacer Billetesgrinding hard just to make some cash.
Soy El Único De La FamiliaI’m the only one in the family,
Que Se Atrevió A Andar En La Movidawho dared to get involved in the hustle,
Ch#ngándole Pa’ Una Mejor Vidaworking tirelessly for a better life.
Brinqué Pa’l Otro LadoI crossed over to the other side,
Y Empezamos Desde Ceroand we started from absolute zero.
Y Lentamente Formé Un ImperioSlowly, I built an empire.
Comenzamos Con Los VeintesWe started with small twenty-dollar deals,
Después Kilos Hoy Me Estoy Riendothen moved major weight, and today I’m the one laughing.
Y A Los Que No Me CreíanAnd to those who didn’t believe in me,
Que No Podía Pensar En Grandewho thought I couldn’t think big,
Y Ando Fuerte TodavíaI’m still going strong today,
Con La Bendición De Mi Madrewith my mother’s blessing.
