Corazón de Cemento (версия 2)

Intro

Three a.m., the block is glass

Sirens hum but they don't last

Concrete dust up in my lungs

Built this heart from broken rungs

Verse

Grew up counting cracks instead of sheep

Corner store light was the only star I keep

Momma's hands cracked from scrubbing floors till dark

I swore one day I'd turn her porch into a spark

Sixteen summers, sneakers held with tape

Traded curfews for the corner's shape

Watched my cousin fold beneath the weight

Learned to walk it slow so I don't break

Every dollar came with dust and grit

Every hustle taught me how to sit with it

Poured my doubt into the mixer, let it set

Now the foundation's the only thing I bet

They said soft hands never lift a throne

Built mine callused, built it on my own

Every setback just another layer poured

Heart went hard the day I hit the floor

Chorus

Corazón de cemento, never gonna crack

Every wound I filled in, never looking back

Built this heart from rubble, laid it brick by brick

Cold beneath the moonlight, hard enough to stick

Corazón de cemento, beating through the gray

Cracked but never broken, that's the only way

Verse

Now got the keys but I remember the walk

Now they wanna talk, back then nobody talked

Turned the block money into blueprint dreams

Building something solid out of busted seams

Every skeptic became scaffolding I climbed

Every "no" became a lesson, saved my time

Momma's porch lit up now, told you that I would

Cement don't bend but it remembers where it stood

Late nights pouring numbers, no design

Every scar's a rebar running through my spine

Counted twenties then, counting concrete now

Still I kneel and pray before I take the bow

Diamond in the rough but rough is how I stay

Polished on the surface, granite under clay

They want the shine but they don't want the weight

Heart of cement carries everything I make

Chorus

Corazón de cemento, never gonna crack

Every wound I filled in, never looking back

Built this heart from rubble, laid it brick by brick

Cold beneath the moonlight, hard enough to stick

Corazón de cemento, beating through the gray

Cracked but never broken, that's the only way

Bridge

Sometimes at night the weight gets heavy though

Cement don't crack but cement still runs cold

I miss the block before the money changed the room

Miss the laughter that we had inside the gloom

But I ain't going back, I'm building something true

Every brick I lay, I lay it for
