Joell Ortiz
Gran Combo
[Intro: Bobbito, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Misc]
Yo, is that that Grand Combo joint? Yep that's it
Yo turn it up

[Verse 1: Joell Ortiz]
I'm from an island in the Caribbean
Three point four million Taino Indian
Children play in the sun, have fun, and run silly and
No shoes, chasing a coqui frog amphibian
How I wish that was real, but it's obviously different
Seventy billion dollar debt, the economy sits in
Much of my family back home is poverty stricken
And they think life here is hitting the lottery ticket
They don't know bout police brutality whippets
They don't know my skin tone had me thrown in prison
They don't know gentrification has our neighborhood shifting and immigrants build buildings they can't afford to live in
Let's not talk about the Donald stuff
It's like a long Disney movie watching all the quеstions Donald ducks
But what trumps everything is hustle and vision, so my (??) kitchеn is a product of not having a pot to piss in
My new car is synonymous to my drive and ambition
Buello's ashes with mami, I earned it and nothing was given
I give in for nothing, it's like I don't get enough of winning
Tryna be triumphant, bring the trumpets in it

(Wepa!)
[Verse 2: Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Lin Miranda
I'm from a
Long line of latin music multihyphenates
When you grow up on Dyckman it's
This music all your life and it's alot of
Dimelo tigre, no se aqui and then snatching the Yankee hat and playing keep away
Now peep the way that Bomba y Plena is as hot as abuela's avena
When I tune in to Telemundo yo the Iris Chacon esta buena
The separate fridge in the bodega cold Presidente
GW Bridge to the Heights, let me rep mi gente
Dead in the middle of minimal visibility
I thread the filigree about bilingual versatility
So come with me and my Walter Mercado regalia
You take the puente with Tito, I'll take a cruise with Celia
And Aventura with Romeo, or Ojala Que Llueva
Cafe con Juan Luis Guerra, okay cantante mi tierra
You want a Gran Combo, you got the sweet and sour
Of (??), from then to now, it's New Yorican power

[Outro: Lin-Manuel]
J-Period

This bodega is lit right now!
Yo, (??) all the way up
The windows rather
Usnavi where you at!
Lin Miranda
J-Period with the story to tell
(??) Joell Ortiz
This bodega's lit
