Small wins, I gotta celebrate them too
A little progress is better than no progress
I'm hungry as if I had to start from scratch
I'm not slowing down, I won't go back to my old life
The only thing I miss from it is my privacy
I learned that money isn't happiness
Loyalty isn't the same as friendship either
Like Morad in the L, a true king in my city
I'm courtside, watching LeBron pass Kareem Abdu in points
Proud 'cause we got out of the pit, Ra's al Ghul
I remember there were so many bad days
That we had to learn to see the gray days a little more blue
Fame caught me by surprise, Draymond, Jordan Poole
They wanna talk about me after I helped them? Well, cool
They wanna talk about me? Didn't even hear it, 'cause I'm on tour
To my face, they never want smoke, only if they're smoking a Juul
I'm still the same, I go to Chili's and order the special, yeah
Fries with bacon, half rack, to go, please
And the more money comes into the account
I realize how little value all this material stuff has, B
Maison Margiela, the split in the toes, I didn't know anything about this
I'm in Marbella with the brothers from London, sorry if I don't answer them
My phone's in the locker, why are they calling so much?
They're obsessed like stalkers
I've changed my number so many times
That I haven't even been able to collect points at Foot Locker
I don't pay mind to the people who diss me, because
Most of them live with their mother, Mr. Crocker
Canelo boxing, f*ck you, motherf*cker
They try to trip me up, I don't fall because besides chess
If we have to, then we play soccer
I'm still the same, on Monday I eat Kobe beef
And on Tuesday I'm already on Vevo
On my team everyone does their job well individually
But we win together like a relay race
Three words I've never said together: 'I can't'
Advise me? You're the one who needs that advice more
I'd like to tell them 'I feel sorry for you', it's not that I don't dare, but
A c*cksucker will always be a c*cksucker
You gotta have faith, balls, and patience
In a world where hate is spread like influenza
I'm looking for every way to be trending
And make the songs hits without being a bad influence
Listen, faith, balls, and patience
I know I make it look easy, but it's not like they think
Few people support you when you start
I just sang to thirty thousand people in Valencia

CojonesBalls / Guts

Cojones literally translates to "testicles" or "balls." However, in Spanish slang, it's widely used to mean "guts," "courage," or "bravery." It's a strong, colloquial expression of determination and resilience.

In Eladio Carrion's song, the phrase "Fe, Cojones y Paciencia" (Faith, Guts, and Patience) is a central theme, emphasizing the mindset needed to overcome challenges and succeed. It's a memorable and impactful word that captures the raw, unyielding spirit of the lyrics.

Eladio Carrión opens by keeping score of the small stuff: "Pequeños logros, también los tengo que celebrar" [Small wins, I gotta celebrate them too]. He isn't bragging about a mansion here, just admitting fame hasn't killed the plain habit of noticing progress, and that habit is what the rest of the song runs on.

He flexes like someone who still remembers being broke: courtside watching LeBron pass Kareem, a box seat at a Canelo fight, half a rack of ribs from Chili's ordered to go. In the same breath he names whoever's been talking about him and shrugs it off, "La mayoría viven con su madre, Mr. Crocker" [Most of them live with their mother, Mr. Crocker]. The hook is his own explanation for how he got here from "salimos del hueco" [we got out of the pit]: "Hay que tener fe, cojones y paciencia" [You gotta have faith, balls, and patience]. By the last verse that patience has paid out for real, "Acabo de cantarle a treinta mil gente' en Valencia" [I just sang to thirty thousand people in Valencia].
