If we want to succeed and make progress We should not look back and regress Keep looking forward and make things right We must help ourselves to gain some insight. We grew up in the barrio in a poor family We had to endure hardships and that's reality But we did not let obstacles defeat our dreams We held it together and never came apart at the seams.
