They didn't dance with The Ugly One
When she wanted to dance
How do they expect me to see them
If I don't look back
But The Ugly One didn't get discouraged
And she started to work
Now that they see her looking good
They even want to mess with her

They said she was crazy
When I talked about my plans
No one knows the struggle
Except the one who made the tamales
And it's not that I'm resentful
I don't forget things
That we are almost like brothers
I don't buy that act

If they weren't with me
When I jumped into the water
The one who doesn't get on the boat
When there was nothing to eat
Shouldn't come complaining
Asking if I remember him

To many, I'm boastful
To a few, I'm a good person
They don't stop calling me flashy
They've already labeled me
And it's because I've become selective
Especially with friendships
If you don't live off what people say
Let the dogs bark

How they flock around
I still greet them anyway
They come to see what you throw their way
They think you don't notice
Things come to you on their own
Just by working hard
I entrust myself to the one above
Who has always guided me

If they weren't with me
When I jumped into the water
The one who doesn't get on the boat
When there was nothing to eat
Shouldn't come complaining
Asking if I remember him
