Mi Vida Loca
I wake up swinging, fists in the air,
Wrestling my dreams like they just don’t care.
Life’s a rodeo, I hold on tight,
Riding chaos like a bull in flight.
---
The ghetto’s my kingdom, the concrete's my throne,
Dodging pigeons like they're throwing stones.
Sirens sing me lullabies at night,
But I dance with the madness—it feels just right.
---
Pitbull soul in a world off-leash,
Hustling hard for that gravy feast.
Nine lives? Ha! I spent twelve,
Still standing strong, straight outta shelve.
---
Traffic jams, grocery fights,
Dodging drama like meteorites.
I laugh so loud, the moon complains,
The universe knows—I don't do reins.
---
Bills and thrills, breakneck speed,
I juggle dreams like circus deeds.
My car’s got issues, my phone does too,
But I roll with it—fixing is for the new.
---
Salsa steps on shifting ground,
Spin through madness, never downed.
Reality blinks, but I don’t flinch,
Dodging doom like a slapstick clinch.
---
So cheers to chaos, my loco delight,
I ride the whirlwind—no seatbelt in sight.
Life’s a sitcom, just press “repeat,”
And I’m the star of my own heartbeat.
