Desde Morro Lyrics in English Justin Morales

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Desde Morro by Justin Morales from Spanish to English.
Since I was a kid they taught me to be real bad*ss
Little by little this big kid grew
My mother, with her respect, raised me
I always carry my father's advice
He was the one that taught me to be true
And he said, act bad with anyone that's an a**hole
And from that moment my life changed
And now look at me, real crazy and real laid-back
Green stacks are what I always think about
Because to get it there's only effort
Many blows from life have hit me
From then on I wasn't myself again
And it'll keep on sounding like that
Your buddy Justin Morales
And straight Rancho Humilde
My brother, may he rest in peace
He was always a f*cking bad*ss
I carry him in my mind
And in my heart
Bro Brandon tattooed up to the neck
Thanks for everything, bros, a hug
I carry pure Morales in my blood
Proud to be in the family that I'm in
To my clique a shout-out, they'll always see me
Different mother but I'm a brother here
I count the real ones on the fingers of my hands
Some are just friends and others like brothers
Where are those that said I'd achieve nothing
Well I start from zero and push forward every day

SONG MEANING

From the very first verse, Justin Morales invites us into the story of a kid who was taught to be tough, real, and unapologetic. Guided by a respectful mother and a straight-talking father, he embraces a code of honor: stay genuine, but never back down from anyone who crosses the line. That mix of family love and street wisdom shapes the fearless swagger we hear, while proud shout-outs to Rancho Humilde underline his cultural roots.

As the beat rolls on, the song becomes a hustler’s diary. Morales sets his sights on “pacas verdes” (stacks of cash) and makes it clear that hard work is the only path to them. He reflects on life’s punches, pays heartfelt tribute to his late brother Brandon, and salutes the small circle of friends and family who matter most. In the end, “Desde Morro” is a rallying cry for resilience: start from zero, grind forward every day, and prove everyone who doubted you completely wrong.
