Tímido Glow - Extra Credit Lyrics

[Intro]
Mira, mira, lo que tengo que decir
Every day I'm climbing higher, higher
No looking back, no more fear inside

[Verse 1]
Found him on the classroom floor that winter day
Needle in his arm, my world turned grey
Now I hear the whispers in the hallway
"Like father, like son," that's what they say
But they don't know me, no
I'm breaking free from these chains below

[Chorus]
Extra credit, extra life
Dancing through this pain tonight
They call it ghetto music
But this rhythm's gonna save my life
Baila conmigo, hasta la muerte
This beat's my therapy, mi gente

[Verse 2]
Lucas played that xylophone back in the day
Now it's just echoes of a better place
Teachers said "You'll never make it anyway"
Watch me turn these streets into my escape
Yeah, I'm climbing up
While they're looking down on us

[Bridge]
Papá, I wish you could see me now
Breaking cycles, showing them how
Your mistakes won't define my path
My music's gonna be my way out at last

[Chorus]
Extra credit, extra life
Dancing through this pain tonight
They call it ghetto music
But this rhythm's gonna save my life
Baila conmigo, hasta la muerte
This beat's my therapy, mi gente

[Outro]
From the bottom to the top
Watch me rise, I'll never stop
Esta música me salvó
Y ahora el mundo es mío, yo
