Corazón en la Marea（バージョン2）

Verse

Concrete jungle under the sodium rain

Eyes turned down when nobody looks at me again

Six a.m., the block gone quiet, nothing left to lose

Empty pockets but I still find it easy, no excuse

Two years on this corner, hustling for one more rent check

Never gave up once though everybody expected otherwise

The only fire that kept burning was the weight in my chest

I see kids crossing where I stood yesterday

Same corner, same shadow, different story to tell today

Something shifted like a switch flipped inside of me tonight

Maybe it's pride, maybe it's the light of the rising sun

Either way I don't look back at the version of myself that was lost, no need to

Now every empty box that left means I made more space for something new

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how a man gets back his dignity when he fell so far off track?

Is it one win or one thousand days? Which one's the turning point?

I don't know but I'm willing to find out, no looking back now that the ice is gone for good

Chorus

So here we go, corazón en la marea, rising with the tide

Nothing left to lose but the chains and the pride that won't subside

Every scar tells a story of a man who refused to break

This is how you walk back into your own life, no more mistakes

Verse

Four months later I'm moving furniture in my momma's kitchen

Not renting from her now, it's mine — every plate, every lightbulb, every thing that was hers too

She cried the first time she saw the check on the counter, never asked how it got there

I told her hustle don't stop for holidays, don't stop when you lose, don't stop when you scared

Now her house is decorated with all of my losses turned to gain

Ain't no trophy case but every struggle got a name — a receipt, a bill paid in full

Rent on time, credit's rising, the corner store now knows me by face instead of fear

Started coaching Little League too so they know what it means to be back on my feet, finally free

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how you turn that first dollar into a whole new name?

Is it one client or one thousand mornings called brave? Which one ignites the flame?

I don't know but I'm watching it happen, slow and loud, no turning back now — I chose the right side of the road

Every man deserves to rise like this sometime before he's gone

Chorus

So here we go, corazón en la marea, rising with the tide

Nothing left to lose but the chains and the pride that won't subside

Every scar tells a story of a man who refused to break

This is how you walk back into your own life, no more mistakes

Bridge

Sometimes I still wake up thinking it was just a dream — the rent money, the light bill paid in full — and then I look around at everything that's mine now

No one handed me this, no fairy tale of easy luck or overnight wealth — every single bruise was earned, every single tear was worth the health

I'm not asking for medals or forgiveness, just a voice to say it wasn't worthless, what you went through meant something, was never useless
