Blood Money

[Intro] En las calles de Lima, yeah Where survival's the only game we play, ey [Verse 1] Sneaking through back doors at midnight Trading favors just to get my sound right Studio owner looking at me strange But I got something that he wants to exchange Every minute here costs me my soul But I'm climbing up from this deep dark hole Lima's underground, where dreams get sold Converting pain into fucking gold [Chorus] Blood money, studio time Everything's got a price (precio) Stealing minutes in the booth tonight Making hits just to stay alive Blood money, that's my life Turn my wounds into fucking light In these streets, I learned to fight Now I'm running this game tonight [Verse 2] They thought they could break me down But I flipped the script, now I run this town Every track I lay is a battle cry Every beat I steal makes me more alive Used to beg for time behind the mic Now they're begging me to stay all night From the bottom to the fucking top Watch me rise while these fakers drop [Bridge] (Lucia's echoes) Todo tiene un precio aquí But I'm the one who sets it now Used to be the prey, now I'm the beast Made it to the top from these filthy streets [Verse 3] Industry sharks trying to take a bite But I learned to swim in the darkest night Every deal I make is calculated Every move I make got them frustrated From the slums straight to the penthouse view Built my empire on what I been through Now they all want pieces of my game But blood money built my fucking name [Chorus] Blood money, studio time Everything's got a price (precio) Stealing minutes in the booth tonight Making hits just to stay alive Blood money, that's my life Turn my wounds into fucking light In these streets, I learned to fight Now I'm running this game tonight [Outro] From Lima's darkness to the spotlight Every scar tells why I'm gonna make it Blood money made me who I am Now watch me rise, yeah, watch me rise (Esta es mi vida, mi reino, mi tiempo)
