PERMANENTE (INTRO) Lyrics in English by Justin Quiles

Joseando is a Spanish slang term derived from the English word "hustling." It means to work hard, often in a resourceful or unconventional way, to make money or achieve success.

In the song, the artist says, "Joseando desde los catorce," meaning he's been hustling since he was fourteen. This word perfectly captures the theme of perseverance and overcoming adversity that runs throughout the lyrics, making it both interesting and relevant to the song's message.

Justin Quiles's "PERMANENTE (INTRO)" is a powerful and honest look into his journey from humble beginnings to where he is now. He starts by reflecting on the struggles of growing up with little, saying, "Cuando uno nace pobre / Un poco pan y café / Ir a trabajar el doble" [When you're born poor / A little bread and coffee / You have to work double]. It's clear he's faced a lot of challenges, and he feels like many people didn't support him, noting, "Nadie te quiere dar la mano en el proceso / Prefieren hundirte y hacer un ejemplo de eso" [Nobody wants to lend you a hand in the process / They prefer to sink you and make an example of it].

But despite all that, Justin Quiles is determined. He's been "Joseando desde los catorce" [Hustling since fourteen] and feels destined for this path. He's committed to his progress, even when patience wears thin, repeating, "Nadie me saca de aquí, voy a mí, voy a mí" [Nobody gets me out of here, I'm going for it, I'm going for it]. He also touches on the pain of loss and missing loved ones, like his brother, saying, "Extraño a mi hermanito, diablo, te fuiste joven" [I miss my little brother, damn, you left young]. This song is a raw declaration of his resilience, faith, and love for his family, believing that "nada ha sido en vano" [nothing has been in vain].
