CONTENTS SUMMARY
Botella Tras Botella (Bottle After Bottle)
Botella tras botella ando tomando
Pa' olvidarme de ella
De ella, de ella nomás hablo
En todas mis pedas
Bottle after bottle, I'm drinking
To forget about her
She's all I talk about
In all my parties

This song is the ultimate anthem for when you're heartbroken and have zero interest in moving on. Gera MX and Christian Nodal are drinking "Botella tras botella" (Bottle after bottle) to forget an ex, but it's not working. In fact, he admits he doesn't even want it to work: "Pa' ser sinceros, yo ni quiero" (To be honest, I don't even want to). His friends are completely fed up with him, telling him "güey, ya la tienes que superar" (dude, you have to get over her now), but he just keeps drinking and thinking about her.

He knows he messed things up, admitting he was a "mal partido" (a bad match) and that he keeps making it worse by drunk-dialing her. The whole mood is a mix of sadness and stubbornness. He's so stuck that he says he even wrote her a whole CD. The song ends with a piece of advice for everyone listening: "Y si amas a alguien, no la dejes ir" (And if you love someone, don't let them go), so you don't end up having to write a song like this one.

Hasta Pronto (See You Soon)
Me levanto a componerte, otra canción de nuevo
Mira pasar el tiempo te hace viejo en este juego
Aprendí a no quemarme, siempre caminé en el fuego
Y caminaría contigo hasta quedarme ciego
I get up to compose you another song again
Look, watching time go by makes you old in this game
I learned not to burn myself, I always walked in the fire
And I'd walk with you until I go blind

Hasta Pronto feels like opening Gera MX’s personal scrapbook, only every page is written in spray-paint and microphone ink. Over a bouncing beat, the Mexican rapper rewinds to his earliest days—busking, tagging buses, and chasing the first rush of applause—then fast-forwards to the man who can still “walk through fire” without getting burned. The song is a love letter to perseverance: Gera celebrates keeping his “spirit intact” despite critics, empty pockets, and the occasional sprint from the police.

At its heart, the track is a promise to stay true. Each lyric drops another clue that success never erased the 13-year-old dreamer inside him. From dedicating every performance to friends watching from above, to proudly becoming “what mamá wanted,” Gera MX reminds listeners that the real jackpot is authenticity. “Hasta Pronto” waves goodbye to doubt, nods to every scar earned along the way, and shouts, See you soon—I’m still running, still writing, and still leaving pieces of my soul in every verse.

Todo A Medias (Everything Half-Done)
Te la vives volteando cada vez que pasa otra
Y yo no puedo pensar en nada que no sea tu boca
Lo que hice bien contigo
Quedó perdido en un segundo en el olvido
You keep turning around every time another girl walks by
And I can't think about anything that isn't your mouth
What I did right with you
Got lost in a second in oblivion

Todo A Medias paints the picture of a modern situationship where passion is real but commitment is always missing. Gera MX steps in as a self-proclaimed “bandido romántico,” admitting he likes the thrill of affection yet keeps one foot out the door, scrolling past new faces while pretending nothing hurts. Paloma Morphy answers from the other side of the heartbreak, confessing she was “prisionera” of sweet words that turned to smoke. Together they show how feelings, promises, and even smiles can get lost in seconds when love is lived a medias – halfway.

Despite the catchy beat and playful wordplay, the song carries a bittersweet lesson: sometimes both people know they are not a perfect match, and that honesty stings less than dragging out a romance that will never be whole. With clever contrasts and raw admissions, the duo turns a messy breakup into an anthem for anyone who has ever loved, doubted, and finally let go – all while keeping the vibe cool, confident, and unapologetically real.

Te Estaba Pensando (I Was Thinking About You)
Estaba pensando
Que te estoy odiando
Y a la vez te quiero
Vino a hacerme daño
I was thinking
That I'm hating you
And at the same time I love you
It came to hurt me

Have you ever felt love and hate for someone at the same time? In "Te Estaba Pensando," Mexican rapper Gera MX explores this confusing and powerful mix of emotions after a breakup. He sings about the internal battle of wanting to forget someone who hurt him, while still missing them deeply. The lyrics paint a picture of a man haunted by memories, admitting, "Tengo mil motivos pa' olvidarte... Pero aún te veo por todas partes" (I have a thousand reasons to forget you... But I still see you everywhere).

Throughout the song, Gera MX describes the pain of seeing his ex-love move on with someone else. He calls her his "martes 13" (Tuesday the 13th), a symbol of bad luck in many Spanish-speaking cultures, showing just how much the relationship affected him. He feels a physical pain, a "nudo aquí en el pecho / Que le llaman sentimiento" (a knot here in my chest / that they call feeling), perfectly capturing the heartache of a love that has ended but is not forgotten.

No Me Toca Perder (It's Not My Turn To Lose)
Estuve pensando en ti todo el fin de semana
Humm, espero que un fin podamos pasarla juntos
Pero este
Tu como vez salir así ya quiero que salgamos caminar contigo
I was thinking about you all weekend
Hmm, I hope that one weekend we can spend it together
But, um
How do you see going out like that? I already want us to go out and walk with you

No Me Toca Perder (literally It Is Not My Turn To Lose) is a raw, conversational rap-ballad where Mexican artist Gera MX opens his heart about a love that slipped through his fingers. Over mellow beats and bittersweet melodies, he retraces the couple’s story: late-night walks, shared dreams, and then the slow fade caused by his constant touring and distractions. While he insists on chasing her through the city, the woman’s voice (sung by Daniela Calvario) cuts in firmly, reminding him that her time matters and the relationship has reached its end. The title feels almost ironic, because the chorus keeps repeating “me toca perder”“it’s my turn to lose.”

In just a few minutes, the song journeys from hope to heartbreak, from denial to responsibility. Gera admits his mistakes, wrestles with the fear of growing up, and finally channels the pain into his music, vowing to stay “real” through his lyrics. The duet format lets learners hear two perspectives on the same breakup, making the emotion feel honest and relatable. At its core, this track teaches that sometimes the biggest defeat – losing someone you love – becomes the spark for personal growth and unforgettable art.

One Love
Yeah, ah
One love, mami
Yeah, okay
Ah, te vi de lejos ese día
Yeah, ah
One love, babe
Yeah, okay
Ah, I saw you from afar that day

"One Love" is Gera MX's take on falling for someone who was already taken. The verses set the scene: he spots her from a distance, wants to say something, but she already has company. He admits he moved too slow and just watched from the sidelines.

The chorus turns the song from longing into loyalty. Trust is hard to come by, but he's someone from the street who stays true, whatever role he ends up playing in her life.

The back half turns flirty and playful. He imagines a spontaneous night together in Colombia, trading Looney Tunes nicknames and stolen moments. It moves between real vulnerability and lighthearted desire, which fits the title: one love that mixes devotion with wanting.

Al Mando (In Command)
Sólo conozco una manera
Cuido mi bandera cuando voy afuera
Soy mexicano de alma guerrera
Manera, cuido mi bandera cuando voy afuera
I only know one way
I protect my flag when I go out
I am Mexican with a warrior soul
Way, I protect my flag when I go out

Gera MX's "Al Mando" is a powerful anthem of Mexican pride, using the game of soccer as a metaphor for life. The rapper declares he is a "mexicano de alma guerrera" (Mexican with a warrior's soul) and proudly represents the green, white, and red of his flag wherever he goes. He paints a picture of growing up as a "warrior since childhood," learning to fight for glory on the soccer field, which he calls his "templo" (temple).

Throughout the song, the lyrics connect the passion of soccer to a deeper national identity. Gera MX sees the game as more than just a sport; he calls it a "sentimiento" (a feeling). He describes dribbling past opponents and scoring goals not just for personal victory, but as a way to honor his history, his family in the stands, and all his fellow Mexicans who are out there working and dreaming. It's a tribute to a fighting spirit learned on the streets and carried with pride.

El Músico (The Musician)
Lo he pensado mucho y sucederá esto, ¿ok?
Seguiré persiguiendo mis objetivos
Y porque lo hago tomará más y más de mi tiempo
Y no podré estar tanto tiempo contigo
I have thought about it a lot and this will happen, ok?
I will continue to chase my goals
And because I will take more and more of my time
And I can't be so long with you

Gera MX's "El Músico" is a really honest look at the life of a musician and the sacrifices that come with it. He's chasing his dreams, and he knows it's going to take up more and more of his time, pulling him away from his partner. He even admits, "Olvida el matrimonio y la casa en Barcelona" [Forget marriage and a house in Barcelona], showing how dedicated he is to his craft, even if it means letting go of traditional relationship goals.

He grapples with the guilt of not being present, saying, "Claro que pido disculpas por las noches que aparezco pidiendo respuestas de celos que no merezco" [Of course I apologize for the nights I show up asking for jealous answers I don't deserve]. It's a candid confession about the strain his passion puts on his relationships, and how he feels misunderstood. He knows he's always been this way and will die this way, as he repeats, "Yo siempre he sido el mismo y así moriré, recuerda" [I've always been the same and I'll die this way, remember].

1 Millón (1 Million)
¿Cuántas veces te advertí?
No hay ninguna explicación
No menciones nada de money
Contigo he gasta'o más de un millón
How many times did I warn you?
There's no explanation
Don't mention any money
With you I've blown over a million

Gera MX's "1 Millón" featuring Geassassin and King Zoo is a really honest look at a complicated relationship, full of a mix of regret, longing, and a touch of defiance. The song opens with a blunt warning: "¿Cuántas veces te advertí? No hay ninguna explicación" [How many times did I warn you? There's no explanation]. He's spent a fortune on this person, "Contigo he gasta'o más de un millón" [With you I've spent more than a million], and he's trying to figure out what her intentions are.

There's a beautiful, almost melancholic image of them dancing through their troubles: "Tú báilame este vals, mi vida Y yo te sigo el paso pa' salir de ruinas" [You dance this waltz for me, my life And I'll follow your steps to get out of the ruins]. He admits to faking belief in her lies and finding comfort only in their shadows, which he calls their "testigas" [witnesses]. Despite the difficulties, there's a sense of destiny, hoping the planets align for them. He talks about fighting his own thoughts "como el club de la pelea" [like Fight Club] and how fame can be a dizzying experience. He even says he'd "mataría" [kill] for her, showing a deep, if troubled, devotion. Ultimately, he's moved on, even if his mind sometimes misses her: "Mi mente a veces te extraña Pero cambié mi vida, pude cambiar de plana" [My mind sometimes misses you But I changed my life, I was able to change my plan].

Triste Bolero (Sad Bolero)
Yeah, y si te vas
No pienses en volver
Te di una oportunidad
Y quedé como un perro tirado en la calle buscando mi paz
Yeah, and if you leave
Don't think about coming back
I gave you a chance
And I was like a dog lying in the street looking for my peace

Ever felt completely lost after a breakup? In "Triste Bolero," Gera MX and LIT killah paint a vivid picture of heartbreak and the messy feelings that come with it. The song's title, which means "Sad Bolero," sets the stage for a story of sorrow. The singer feels abandoned, comparing himself to "a dog thrown in the street looking for my peace." He gave someone a second chance, but it ended in pain, leaving him to wonder if he truly misses her or if it's just the tequila talking.

Despite having an account "full of zeros," he feels empty because money can't buy a phone call from the person he misses. The lyrics are filled with powerful memories, like watching her on the bed "naked like a canvas," which now haunt him late at night. Ultimately, the song is a firm goodbye. He tells her, "if you leave, don't think about coming back," declaring that this is "the farewell" as he tries to find his way out of the darkness.

Querida (Darling)
Qué vida
La desperdicio llorando por tu despedida
Que ahora estás con alguien más me dicen tus amigas
Quisiera ya no pensarte, pero se me olvida
What a life
I waste it crying over you leaving
Your friends say you’re with someone else now
I wish I could stop thinking of you, but I forget

In "Querida," which translates to "Dear," Gera MX pours out his heart, describing the intense pain of a recent breakup. He feels like he's wasting his life, unable to move on from his ex-lover's departure. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of his suffering: he tries to numb the pain with alcohol and other women, but nothing heals the wound. He sings with a "pained soul" (alma adolorida), constantly trying to call her only to be met with "missed calls" (Llamadas perdidas).

Throughout the song, the singer grapples with regret and confusion. He admits to a specific mistake, singing, "Curse the afternoon where I lied to you" (Maldita la tarde donde te he mentido), suggesting this lie may have caused the breakup. He's caught in a painful conflict: his mind knows he should move on, but his heart still misses her deeply. In the end, he resigns himself to the situation, hoping she is happier with her new partner, even as he carries the weight of their shared memories and broken promises.

Mustang 65'
Yeah, yeah
M-U-S-T-A-N-G
65', me muevo relajado si me ven
Es que tú ni tu crew llegarían a este poder
Yeah, yeah
M-U-S-T-A-N-G
65', I move relaxed if they see me
It's just that you or your crew wouldn't reach this power

Get ready to cruise with Mexican rapper Gera MX in his track "Mustang 65'". The song is a confident declaration of success and a celebration of his journey. Riding in a classic Mustang, Gera MX paints a picture of a life he's built from the ground up. He tells us he grew up with hunger ("Crecí jodido, tuve hambre"), which taught him how to win. Now, he's on top, feeling like he's about to explode with energy and success.

The lyrics are filled with boasts about his skills and status. He claims no one can reach his level of power and that he's the best in his area ("soy el mejor del lugar"). While others chase the spotlight, he prefers to reflect ("yo solo reflexionar"). He's focused on his goals: making money, partying with his crew, and eventually retiring on a Cuban beach with his lady. It's a song about enjoying the present while remembering the past and planning for a comfortable future, all from the driver's seat of a legendary car.

Tu Héroe (Your Hero)
Yeah, yeah
Cachorro, mami
Todo me contamina, sirenas y patrullas
En otras piernas, fue cuando extrañé las tuyas
Yeah, Yeah
Puppy, mommy
Everything contaminates me, sirens and patrols
In other legs, it was when I missed yours

Gera MX's "Tu Héroe" is a really honest and emotional song about a breakup and the lingering pain of not being able to be the person his ex-lover needed. He's a self-proclaimed "gangsta" who still thinks about her when he sings, even admitting, "Te amo sobre todo y me gustas entre tantas" [I love you above all and I like you among so many]. It's clear he's struggling, feeling lost and contaminated by the world around him, wishing things had turned out differently.

You can feel his regret as he talks about how their love ended, saying, "Duele que no ves / Es que no pude ser tu héroe" [It hurts that you don't see / It's that I couldn't be your hero]. He even mentions having her initials on his hand as a memory, showing just how much she meant to him. Despite the sadness, there's a hint of his playful side too, like when he says, "Dame una espada y algún dragón derroto" [Give me a sword and I'll defeat some dragon] for her. It's a powerful look at heartbreak and the struggle to move on.

Jugando A Perder (Playing To Lose)
Hoy se nos ha acabado la suerte
Por jugar tanto tiempo a perdernos
Nuestro amor quedó inerte
Nos ha dolido fuerte
Today our luck has run out
For playing so long to lose ourselves
Our love remained inert
It has hurt us badly

Gera MX, Jasiel Nuñez, and Dany Calvario team up for "Jugando A Perder," a really emotional track about a love that's fallen apart. The title, which means "Playing To Lose," perfectly sets the scene. The lyrics are all about the pain of a relationship that ended because, as they say, "Hoy se nos ha acabado la suerte / Por jugar tanto tiempo a perdernos" [Today our luck has run out / For playing to lose each other for so long]. It's clear the singer is heartbroken, struggling to sleep and feeling sad every night since their love left, even asking, "Me embrujaste ¿Qué hechizo me hiciste?" [You bewitched me, what spell did you cast on me?]

This song really digs into the regret and lingering feelings after a breakup. The singer admits, "Sé que yo fui quien lo arruinó" [I know I was the one who ruined it], but also feels like the other person is better off without them. Despite the pain, there's a powerful declaration of lasting love: "Hoy sé que te quise, te quiero / Y que siempre te voy a querer" [Today I know that I loved you, I love you / And that I will always love you]. It's a raw and honest look at the struggle to move on when your heart is still stuck on someone.

Historial (History)
No tengo tiempo para esto
No
Una cubana por el cuello que brilla muy diferente
Un expediente que he borrado, pero no es decente
I don't have time for this
No
A Cuban chain around my neck that shines very differently
A record I've erased, but it's not decent

Gera MX's "Historial" featuring DrefQuila and Samantha Barrón is a raw and honest look at a relationship struggling with past mistakes and present frustrations. The song kicks off with a blunt statement: "No tengo tiempo para esto" [I don't have time for this], setting the tone for a narrative of a love that's both passionate and painful.

Our narrator seems to have a history that's hard to shake, even if he's tried to erase it: "Un expediente que he borrado, pero no es decente. Pecados del pasado, besándome en el presente" [A record I've erased, but it's not decent. Sins of the past, kissing me in the present]. He admits his street-hardened nature, saying "La calle me hizo un perro y los perros siempre traen hambre" [The street made me a dog and dogs are always hungry]. There's a push and pull, a desire for intense connection like "Quedan dos segundos, bésame, no pares" [Two seconds left, kiss me, don't stop], but also a sense of self-preservation: "Preferible que me extrañen, a quedarme y que me dañen" [It's preferable that they miss me, than for me to stay and be hurt]. The song really digs into the frustration of a partner who can't let go of his past, even though she might have her own: "Y tú bien molesta por mi historial, y te olvidas que tú tienes uno igual" [And you're really upset about my history, and you forget that you have one too]. It's a powerful and relatable story about the complexities of love when history keeps getting in the way.

Las Calles Hablan (The Streets Speak)
Ah
Es El Cachorro, ma', con C-Kan
El Perro y El Cachorro
La vida está dando patadas
Ah
It's El Cachorro, babe, with C-Kan
The Dog and The Puppy
Life is kicking

In "Las Calles Hablan," which translates to "The Streets Talk," Gera MX and C-kan paint a vivid picture of their difficult upbringings. The song is a powerful story of overcoming hardship, from growing up in a poor neighborhood to achieving success in music. Gera MX shares deeply personal memories, including a family crisis in 2014 when his father was kidnapped. This traumatic event made him feel like he lost his childhood and even his faith in God.

The chorus, "Las calles hablan / Mas que nadie me conoce" ("The streets talk / They know me better than anyone"), acts as the song's central theme. It suggests that their experiences on the streets shaped who they are and witnessed their entire journey. For them, authenticity is everything. They value a person's word and actions over any fake image or "pose." The song is a declaration of resilience, a tribute to where they came from, and a testament to earning respect through struggle, not just fame.

Diamantes Y Rosas (Diamonds And Roses)
Empecemos para dónde
Es más interesante para todo el mundo
No de dónde viene
Para dónde vas
Let's start with where
It's more interesting for everyone
Not where it comes from
Where are you going

Gera MX kicks off "Diamantes Y Rosas" by asking us to think about where we're going, not where we've been. He's all about moving forward! He immediately sets a luxurious scene with "Manejo líneas lujosas, mamis en carrozas, diamantes dentro de rosa" [I drive luxurious cars, women in carriages, diamonds inside roses], but quickly reminds us that "la calle es peligrosa" [the street is dangerous].

He talks about being a gangster, but one who keeps a low profile: "Los que me cuidan no usan Face, es más, nunca les verás la face" [Those who protect me don't use Facebook, in fact, you'll never see their faces]. Gera MX is confident in his success, saying "Van a sobrar los billetes" [There will be plenty of money]. He also warns rivals, with a funny football reference: "O te van a meter ocho como el Bayern-Barcelona" [Or they'll put eight past you like Bayern-Barcelona]. He reflects on staying true to himself, "Soy el mismo desde chico" [I'm the same since I was a kid], and how he's worked hard to get where he is, overcoming past struggles. He even describes his relationship with fame as an affair: "Yo tengo un amorío con esa que llamas fama, me besa todos los viernes, me deja fumar en cama" [I have an affair with what you call fame, it kisses me every Friday, it lets me smoke in bed]. It's a look at his journey from the streets of Mexico to becoming an idol, all while keeping it real.

A Mis Amigos (To My Friends)
Yeh
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, wah
Yeh, yeh
Debajo de alguna escalera seguro componiendo
Yeh
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, wah
Yeh, yeh
Under some stairs, surely composing

Gera MX's "A Mis Amigos" is a heartfelt letter to old friends, family, and even a romantic interest, reflecting on how much his life has changed since becoming a successful artist. He opens by describing his humble beginnings, composing music "Debajo de alguna escalera" [Under some stairs], and how he's now reached great heights but is "aun así sigo subiendo" [still climbing].

He expresses regret for not being around, saying "Mi carrera sí me ausenta" [My career does make me absent] and apologizes for sending calls to voicemail: "Pediré perdón por mandar a buzón" [I'll ask for forgiveness for sending to voicemail]. He's often busy with concerts, giving his "última canción" [last song], or doing interviews. Gera MX misses his friends, noting that "El Ren está en Australia, Rencko casi ni lo veo" [Ren is in Australia, I barely see Rencko], and remembers simpler times, like "Tirar humo en ese parque era un verdadero paseo" [Smoking in that park was a real stroll]. Despite the fame and the demands on his time, he never forgets where he came from, even recalling "aquellos días que no comimos" [those days we didn't eat]. It's a raw and honest look at the sacrifices made for a dream, all while holding onto the love for those who never abandoned him: "Salud por la familia que nunca me abandonó" [Cheers to the family that never abandoned me].

Hagan Ruido (Make Noise)
Yeah
Todo a su tiempo y este es el mío
La luna me mira esta noche sin frío
Salgo a buscarle justicia a los míos
Yeah
Everything in its time, and this is mine
The moon watches me tonight without cold
I go out to seek justice for my people

Get ready to crank up the volume with Gera MX and Snow Tha Product's "Hagan Ruido"! This track is all about celebrating success, hard work, and staying true to yourself.

Gera MX kicks things off by reflecting on his journey, saying "Todo a su tiempo y este es el mío" [Everything in its time and this is mine]. He's been through the storm, in "Modo soldado pasé la tormenta" [Soldier mode I passed the storm], and now he's reaping the rewards, with "Otro mes y otra vez un millo llegó" [Another month and again a million arrived]. He's not afraid to tell it like it is, emphasizing his independence with "Yo soy mi jefe antes de marcar 30" [I am my boss before turning 30]. Then Snow Tha Product jumps in, bringing her fierce energy and confidence. She declares herself the real deal, saying "Soy el producto, yo soy la que vende. Yo soy la dueña y la cata" [I am the product, I am the one who sells. I am the owner and the taster]. She's got no time for fakes, bluntly stating, "Tú eres feka y yo soy Snow" [You are fake and I am Snow]. Together, they're a force, demanding everyone "Hagan ruido" [Make noise] and letting the world know they're here to stay.

Miren (Look)
Y así suena
Y seguirá sonando
Su compita
Justin Morales, dice
And that's how it sounds
And it'll keep playing
Your buddy
Justin Morales says

Gera MX and Justin Morales team up for "Miren," a track that's all about proving the doubters wrong and celebrating hard-earned success. It's a shout-out to everyone who didn't believe in them, with lines like "Ahora miren todo lo que yo he logrado" [Now look at everything I've achieved]. They talk about moving forward quietly, "sin hacer tanto ruido fuimos avanzando" [without making much noise we kept moving forward], and how they've gained respect over time.

This song is a real anthem for hustlers. Gera MX talks about being tired of poverty, "Me cansé de vivir pobre," [I got tired of living poor] and putting in the work to change his life. He emphasizes "Progreso" [Progress] as a word that's worth more than money, showing that his ambition goes beyond just getting rich. It's a powerful message about staying humble while you rise, and taking your rightful place after a lot of struggle.

Sin Rumbo (Aimless)
Ah, voy sin dirección ni rumbo
Todo más o menos, aunque a veces me confundo
Odian al primero, por eso llegue segundo
Si solo queda tiempo, yo usaré bien mis segundos
Ah, I'm going without direction or a path
Everything's more or less, though sometimes I get confused
They hate the first, that's why I came second
If only time remains, I'll use my seconds well

Gera MX's "Sin Rumbo" is a really honest look at navigating life and fame when you feel like you're just drifting, going "sin dirección ni rumbo" [without direction or course]. He talks about feeling a bit lost, even when things are generally okay, admitting "todo más o menos, aunque a veces me confundo" [everything more or less, although sometimes I get confused].

It's cool how he contrasts the difficulty of his art, saying his verse is "doloroso como un disparo en la pierna" [painful like a shot in the leg], with the pressures of the music industry. He feels like the industry wants "menos letra y más coros para la música" [less lyrics and more choruses for the music], which is a blunt critique. He even says he had to explain that "este juego me hizo frío como el invierno en Toronto" [this game made me cold like winter in Toronto], showing how tough it's been. But despite all that, he's still here, making music, because "esto de rapear me nace" [this rapping is born in me].

Santo Grial (Holy Grail)
Ah
Le perdí todo el respeto a la moneda
Rapear con este estilo bien maldito
La verdad, dudo que puedas
Ah
I lost all respect for money
Rapping with this damn good style
Honestly, I doubt you can

Gera MX's "Santo Grial" is a gritty, no-holds-barred look into his life and the streets that shaped him. He kicks it off by saying he's lost all respect for money, but he's out there making it happen with his "maldito" [cursed] style, even if it means staying up with "los ojos rojos" [red eyes]. He's been at this for 11 years, a true "noventero kid" [90s kid] leading a generation.

He doesn't shy away from the darker side, mentioning a gun in his glove compartment "por si alguno quiere acción" [in case someone wants action] and his crew's "mala fama y alguna que otra maña" [bad reputation and a trick or two]. Gera reflects on a tough childhood: his fridge was empty, his dad was gone, and he learned early that "el dinero honesto no te alcanza en esta vida" [honest money isn't enough in this life]. Despite the hardships, he found solace with his cousins and grandparents. He even says, "Todos nos tatuamos Cristos, pero nadie ha sido un santo" [We all tattoo Christs, but no one has been a saint], a blunt reminder that appearances can be deceiving. He's learned to fight for what's his, and he's not backing down, always hearing the call of "la calle" [the street] when it gets late.

Freestyle
Uh, el odio es palabra fuerte
La mente la tengo en forma
Me quieren meter el pie
Ignorándome en las plataformas
Uh, hate is a strong word
My mind is in shape
They want to trip me up
Ignoring me on the platforms

Gera MX's "Freestyle" is all about claiming his spot at the top of the rap game and shutting down the haters. He's not shy about his success, saying he got rich from rapping and that others should "copiar la fórmula" [copy the formula] before their "circo" [circus] falls apart. He sees a lot of fakes out there, calling some people "TikToker" instead of a rapper, and he's ready to put them in their place.

Gera MX talks about his humble beginnings, hustling since he was 13 with his crew, and how they went from "siendo nadie" [being nobody] to "terminamos dominando" [ending up dominating]. He's proud of his journey and the respect he's earned, stating that "aquí no se tiene nada si no te brindan respeto" [here you have nothing if they don't give you respect]. He's confident in his lyrical skill, even boasting that he has "más letra en un sencillo que tu puto álbum" [more lyrics in one single than your whole damn album]. This track is a powerful declaration of his dominance and loyalty to his roots.
