1:50
It could have been me
With just a couple different variables
And a few slightly different scenarios
I could have found myself on a
Hot and humid Summer night
Underneath glowing and flashing lights
As the Latin Rhythms played
Because even though I’m mucho güera
I too love to Salsa and Cumbia
And know how to Bachata
I love the energy and I get it
The night and spending time with
Your friends who feel like family
You know Family
You and me and we and
They were Family
It could have been me
That was shot that night in Orlando
