[Sample]
It was raining, bare feet
He was a poor guy, he came from poor family
And then a taxi driver, he saw him, he said:
"Little boy go home, it's raining, bare feet, what you doing in the dark?"
And Maradona looked at him, he said:
"Remember that name. My name is Diego Armando Maradona. One day you're gonna hear it"
This guy he believed himself, he became one of the best players ever. He came from bare feet, no shoes, no clothes, under the rain, just because he has the passion and he knows himself, he can be somebody

[Verse]
I put all in the substance
I do it all for the substance
Can't put a price on the substance
I'll lose my life for the substance
Deep in the lines for the substance
Living through time with the substance
I do it all for the substance
I put my all in the substance

A.CHAL

Alejandro Salazar, known as A.CHAL (short for Alejandro Chal), is a Peruvian singer-songwriter and producer. His sound is described as falling somewhere “in the negative space between hip hop, R&B, chillwave, and pop music.”

A.CHAL was born in Peru, then later moved with his family to New York when he was 4 years old. In 2010, he relocated to Los Angeles and started making music, but he started rapping when he was just 12 years old. His lyrics speak about struggles, dreams and relationships, and sometimes jump from English to Spanish.

A.CHAL’s debut EP Ballroom Riots was released in 2013. However, he distances himself from this project, saying he doesn’t consider it his first “because it was something I made that was mainly production. I did not yet immerse myself as a vocalist. I was too shy at the time.”
