Chino Pacas turns his story into an adrenaline-charged anthem in "Yo Preferí Chambear". Skipping school and diving straight into hard work, he paints a vivid portrait of growing up in Santa Julia, Guanajuato, where hustle is a way of life and ambition never sleeps. The lyrics celebrate trading textbooks for real-world grind, pushing past childhood scarcity, and climbing so fast it feels like riding a comet. Along the way, he salutes his "carnal" (brother), reps the 413 area code, and flashes pride in the city known as La Ciudad de la Fresa.
Beneath the bragging rights and love for flashy trucks lies a motivational core: there is no secret recipe, only courage, perseverance, and the willingness to keep “chambeando” until the goals hit blue-sky heights. The track is equal parts street diary and victory lap, inviting listeners to blast it loud, feel the grit, and believe that relentless work can turn dreams into milestones.
