As a child I wanted to be great and I was not referring to age

Always in the mind that was going to hit her

My ambition and my intelligence were always on par

Sitten I'm going to talk to you

I was already black, I was already white and they can tell me little

And it's not about whether I'm good or bad to start

With people who are common, the land is never neutral

I already learned that they do not help you, but they will delay you

I am from very few friends, acquaintance

And although I am in the mouth of many, they will only look at me

Right now there is nothing left of the comrades

That I thought they were going to be

I think nobody expected the sun to hit me

And that in the gloomy was going to stay

And here we are in Code Compa Alfonso Muñoz

Without much verb pa 'not anger Compa Tito

Ju-ya

I am more angel than demon if I compare

Maybe bad than good before someone else's mouth

To life you have to bet on him and I'm not afraid to bet

I already learned that playing background is another way to start

Before pure burn tape, pure right ran

Whatever they come to tell me or come to me

A J and a R are the initials

That they will star in

Corrido's experiences

Morro well lived, not much verb for not anger

vergal — a ton / a whole lot

Vergal is a colloquial and somewhat vulgar term in Mexican Spanish, meaning "a ton" or "a whole lot." It's a strong way to express a large quantity.

In the song, the artist sings, "Soy de muy pocos amigos, conocidos un vergal" (I have very few friends, but a ton of acquaintances). This contrast highlights the difference between close relationships and superficial ones, using a vivid and memorable slang term to emphasize the sheer number of acquaintances.

Alfonso Muñoz and Código FN bring us a track that's all about the journey to success and the lessons learned along the way. From a young age, Alfonso knew he wanted to be great, not just grow old, with ambition and intelligence always working together. He's seen it all, saying, "Ya fui negro, ya fui blanco y poco me pueden contar" [I've been Black, I've been White, and there's little they can tell me]. It's not about being good or bad, but understanding that with certain people, the playing field is never neutral.

He's learned that people won't help you, but they will hold you back. He keeps his circle small, with "muy pocos amigos, conocidos un vergal" [very few friends, a ton of acquaintances]. He reflects on how many thought he wouldn't make it, but now he's in the spotlight. Alfonso also shares a blunt truth: "Ya aprendí que tocar fondo es otra forma de empezar" [I've learned that hitting rock bottom is another way to start]. This song is a straightforward look at his experiences, with a shout-out to "Una J y una R" [a J and an R] whose initials will be central to the story.
