Verse 1:
Fuen en un dia soleado, Anaheim California
la raza se reunieron for la nena iba naciendo.
Era un milagro, no podÃan creerlo
traen la nena en brazos y el que sigue ve en camino.
Verse 2:
No es facil ser papás, criando dos chamacos
sus comportamientos desafÃan a lo normal.
La madre a toda madres, ella no se raje
mientras el jefe va chambeando ella nos trae a prisa
Pre-Chorus:
Desde evento tras evento nos traÃa vagueando
Luchando nuestros derechos educaciónarios
Chorus:
Los tropiezos de la vida las (va) manejando
Esta dama no se raje solo se sabe rifar
Verse 3:
Ya vamos creciendo, yo en la adolescencia
Allà la voy rifando en la Wy'East y en el Green Valley
La chamba no fue fácil y aun con el COVID
pero lo logre y me gradué allà con honores
Pre-Chorus:
Aun con mis defectos no me plasmo y voy delante
Niña tÃmida y tierna tiene un character fuerte
Chorus:
Los tropiezos de la vida las voy manejando
Esta dama no se raje solo se sabe rifar.
Bridge:
Que pase la graduada voy a seguir adelante con mis triunfos con la vida adulta
La primera de mi herencia formo ejercer una carrera en la universidad
18 años voy cruzando la frontera de la niñez pasando la linea adulta
Pero hija de dos padres cien por cientos Mexicanos no les importa saber mi estado adultéz si por ellos me enjaulan en la etapa niñez y me tengo que huir.
Verse 4:
19 años, consegui un trabajo
y por lo menos conseguà el permiso de manejar.
Manejo yo mi tiempo de la escuela y la chamba
vendito a Dios con buenos grados la supe rifar.
Pre Chorus:
Poco a poco y mis jefes me dejaran volar
y de a poco esta paloma pronto volara
Chorus:
Los tropiezos de la vida las voy manejando
Esta dama no se raje solo se sabe rifar
Ending Phrase:
Ya con esta me despido, la vida es para aventajar.

Verse 1:
'Twas on a sunny day, Anaheim California, the pack hurdled 'round to see the newborn baby child.
It was a miracle, they couldn't believe it. The baby's in their arms, while the other one's on its way.
Verse 2:
It ain't easy being parents, raising two little rascals. their behaviors defy what is considered as normal
The mom being a super mother, she won't even quit
while the boss is off to work she has us in a rush
Pre-Chorus
from events and towards events she has us up and down
fighting and advocating for our educational grounds
Chorus:
Through the trips in life she find the way to maneuver over it
This lady ain't know how to quit, she only knows how to ace it.
Verse:
Now we're growing up, living the adolescence, and therefore I'm acing in the Wy'east and in Green Valley
The hard work ain't easy, especially though COVID, still I was honor role and got to walk on my graduation.
Pre-Chorus:
Growing up with flaws I still won't quit I move on forward
This shy and timid girl has attitude that's fierce and bolder.
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Cheers to the graduate student, she will keep moving on forward with her triumphsexploring the adult life
She's the first generation to earn a higher education forming a career in the University
As she turns 18 one foot's leaving childhood and the other one is crossing the border to adult life
But daughter of two parents who are 100% Mexican it don't mean a thing that she's grown up if it were for them they'd trap me in my childhood ways and therefore I'll find a way to escape and leave.
Verse 4:
Now at age 19 getting a glimpse of the workforce
and at least I earned my permit so that I can drive
Managing my time between my job and studies
I thank the Lord my grade stayed high and yet I am still thriving
Pre Chorus:
Time by time and both my parents are letting me fly
And with troubles this dove will learn to fly unto the sky
(Chorus)
Now for my goodbye I'll leave by saying that life is meant for us to thrive.
