make a living

Yo, first grade, Oak school 
elementary
A few blocks from the Englewood 
cemetery
I lived through hard times, 
according to my memory
Then I learned to run like I'm 
reading up the dictionary
I still walk to the Kelso Market
Even though I get to walk them red 
carpets
My family lived in my grampa's 
garage
So I started working just to help 
out my pops
It all started when my grampa 
crossed over
Now one day I might be a crossover
Right now it's just who is that 
girl?
But one day Ima be all around the 
world
I still get grounded, always stay 
grounded
Still do chores even when I'm on 
tour
One thing's for sure, Ima always be 
me
That what's up? Becky, Becky G

You what you know about the in and 
out lines
And what you know about that 4×5 
drive
My life is changing quickly right 
before my eyes
It hits me everytime that I'm on 
Hollywood divine
If you wanna date me, you gotta ask 
my Daddy
And my 30 uncles, you can meet them 
in an alley!
And one day Ima bring home a Grammy
But no matter what I'll be bringing 
home randies
Donuts, haller when you see me
I'm still the same B, even when I'm 
on TV
Still rocking Js with my diamonds 
and pearls
You can take me out the hood, but 
not the hood out of the girl
Yes I love sushi, love my calamari
But ain't no better chef than my 
very own mommy
If you can't catch me warming in my 
…
I'm with my litas praying the 
Rosario
