🎤 “Mi Familia” – by Chookstar
⸻
🎸 INTRO (Soft Spanish guitar + light percussion)
(Spoken, low and intimate)
Mi familia…
Loud love… loud fights…
Seen it all.
(Beat builds — cajón + bass pulse)
⸻
VERSE 1 (Deep rhythmic rap)
Spanish loud, young and volatile
Kitchen table wars, tears and denial
Words like knives, some can’t erase
Still run back to that same old place
Blood thick, tempers thicker
Drama fast, forgiveness quicker
Crazy toxic, battle scars
Same last name but worlds apart
Outcasted, felt so small
Middle of the noise, no voice at all
They wore Chanel, Nike shine
Brandy glam in designer lines
I stood there, fire in chest
Different rhythm in my breath
⸻
PRE-CHORUS (Melodic, emotional lift)
We fight, we cry, we break
But blood don’t wash away
No matter how far I roam
Mi corazón goes home
⸻
🔥 CHORUS (Sexy Latina Folk Hook)
Mi familia, mi familia
Fire in my veins, dulce y peligrosa
I ain’t what you want me to be
Soy libre, I’m just me
Mi familia, mi familia
Love me loud or let me be
Through the madness I found my way
I live my truth every day
⸻
VERSE 2 (Rap – grounded, reflective)
Seventeen, first flight out
Uruguay roots, no doubt
Different world, poverty seen
But hearts were rich, eyes so keen
So united, arms so tight
Dancing barefoot under night
Felt alive in a different way
Family close in a humble way
Came back home to island air
Australia sun in golden glare
Grew up quick, saw things clear
Simple life what I hold dear
⸻
VERSE 3 (Deep, personal)
Loved my exes to the core
Loved those kids like they were born
Stepmum heart, gave my all
Stood so tall, took the fall
Hard work, no reward
Invisible love, no applause
‘Cause I ain’t mum, not by name
Never fit their perfect frame
But I ain’t here to beg or prove
I move my way, I choose my groove
⸻
PRE-CHORUS (Softer, stronger)
We fight, we cry, we break
But I won’t bend for your sake
I know now who I am
Fuego in my hands
⸻
🔥 FINAL CHORUS (Bigger, layered)
Mi familia, mi familia
Folk soul, corazón guerrera
I ain’t what you want me to be
Soy libre, I’m just me
Mi familia, mi familia
From Montevideo to Sydney sea
Through the madness I found my way
Life is fire — let’s go, bebé
⸻
OUTRO (Spoken over guitar)
Wow… what a journey.
Life is great.
Life is living.
Let’s go.
