“Mejor Que Ayer” is Adriel Favela’s proud declaration that hard times can forge unbreakable spirits. Over a backdrop of corridos, he recounts days when there was literally no food on the table, years spent risking everything inside a cartel, and the pain of losing close friends. Yet every setback becomes a lesson, sharpening his resolve until hoy todo se ve mejor. Trust in God, unshakable self-belief, and an ever-watchful eye on fake friends keep him moving forward in a Maserati rather than on foot.
At the core of the song is loyalty. Family comes first, especially his wife Beba and their four daughters who fuel his drive. Favela salutes the crew that never “raja” (backs down) and mourns those who are gone, reminding us that success means little without the people who share it. “Mejor Que Ayer” is part victory lap, part cautionary tale: the world can devour the unprepared, but those who dare, persevere, and stay true can stand taller, stronger, and—yes—better than yesterday.
