Songwriter: Pitbull

Being overlooked, being slept on
Being started but I just keep going
Being up, being down
Payed dues, earned stripes
Been in lawsuits, welcome to my life

I'm too Latin for hip hop
And too hip hop for Latin
So you all figure it out I'ma keep rappin'
But that's okay
'Cause I'ma be on the top one day

Con pasiensia y vaselina
El elefante se la metio a la ormiga
And that's the slogan I live by
Me, I just hang in the hood
Y'all just drive by
Lights out, lights out like a drive by

My life is real
I ain't got nothing to lie about
You can ask anyone that's with me
How this lil' chico right here
Took over the city

Luke, trick they were the start
But that lil' chico Pitbull, he was the spot
Now this nigga's picking up rappers
Like they know what's up

Two at a time, nigga
Who would have thought
The bottom on top
Today's lil rappers not to take it to heart

If you can't finish don't start
Hey, if you can't finish don't start
Hey, if you can't finish don't start, rah

Pitbull is a Cuban-American MC, born and raised in Miami, Florida. Nowadays he’s left his MC abilities and centered his career in the Pop and mainstream industry.

In 2001, Pitbull aka Mr.305 signed to Uncle Luke’s Records. There he started his career as MC, throwing out a series of mixtapes under the name of Unleashed. Through Uncle Luke Pitbull came to know people in the movement like Lil'Jon or The Diaz Brothers.

In 2004, Pitbull releases his debut LP, M.I.A.M.I. Acronym of Money Is A Major Issue with the lead single Culo, produced by Lil'Jon and the Diaz Brothers. Culo became a club banger, but the Jamaican artist Mr. Vegas accused Pitbull of copying his “Push Up”. This led to a beef to which Pîtbull responded with “Mr. Vegas Diss”.
