[Bridge]
This for my vatos in Cali
Dominicanos up in N.Y
Cubanos in Miami
Columbianos we worldwide

[Verse 1 - Andy Mineo]
I rep that Wash Heights like all day, it’s unashamed like cosmay
I try to walk that narrow path, but your boy live off of broadway
I took the A-train to 1-6-8, Americanos playin dominoes
And them platanos all on my plate, NEW YORK in my my state
But you know we take it international, we feelin' to follow anywhere the Master goes
So we hang with and bang with every language even though we speakin' that Spanglish like
Dirmelo loco, tato lets go, vamonos we out here oh
Mi amigos y yo venimos from the west side to the east coast so
Ain't nobody rappin' like this WHAT
Unashamed the name of my clique YUP
Todos los dias, hermanito, dale ya tu sabe AHH

[Verse 2 - Lecrae]
I'm on my uno (uno) uno (uno) seis you know my crew, bro
Unashamed since '02, bro, before the 1-1-6 tattoos, bro
Now you don’t really know if you got time like that
To hear the truth and fellas never mind like that
But we unashamed, never been a game, spit it how we live it so we get it on a grind like that
From Tejas and that’s Texas, A-T-L’s where I'm resting
Said I might catch a plane to rep for my king, Puerto Rico’s on my checklist
Boricuas, Cubanos, perdonen mi espanol
Aqui con mis hermanos, to give Jesus to these VATOS
I pop off, no Peter, all about the blood the body flesh eaters
Used to be the Walking Dead but that season ended, now partner I'm a believer

[Chorus - Derek Minor]
Uno Uno Seis
When I Uno Uno Seis
When I Uno Uno Seis
Please don’t get up in my way
[x4]

[Verse 3 - Lecrae]
Uno uno seis boy you know we don’t play boy
Spit a lot of truth they call it the good news put it all up in your face boy
Catch us on arroz con frijoles with some tostones
We ain't worried 'bout folks thinking we phony
Jesus know me,
yes I Know I’m going and know what I'm doing
And only Yeshua can do it ???? got a raggity dude
You part of the movement that you rather pursue
Holla 1-1-6 if you rep the truth!
[Andy Mineo]
Holla 1-1-6 if you rep the truth! SET
The booth ablaze, but the faith can take the trips too for the wages of the sin we choose
Thank you because you gave us news that’ll break them chains, that will make us new!
Mira mi caballo, I don’t gotta pay nada, he took them hits like piñatas, HALLELUYAH the father
En cuerpo y mis palabras, le voy a dar la alabanza
1-1-6 be my partners, in God we trust not them dollars HAH

[Chorus - Derek Minor]
Uno Uno Seis
When I Uno Uno Seis
When I Uno Uno Seis




Please don’t get up in my way

Overall Meaning

The song Uno Uno Seis by Andy Mineo featuring Lecrae and Derek Minor is a celebration of their unity and representation of their faith while also being proud of their Hispanic identities. The chorus of the song repeatedly says, "Uno Uno Seis," which is a numerical representation of 1-1-6, referring to Romans 1:16 in the Bible, which states, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth." The artists find solidarity in their shared journey of following Christ and their respective Hispanic cultures, whether it be the New York City Dominican neighborhood referred to as Wash Heights or the Cuban community in Miami. They mention being unashamed of their faith and spreading the good news of the gospel to their fellow Hispanic brothers, hence the use of Spanish in their lyrics.


In the verses, Andy Mineo talks about growing up in Wash Heights, living a dual identity of being from New York but holding on to his Hispanic roots. He also emphasizes the global appeal of spreading the gospel by saying he is willing to follow anywhere the Master goes. In Lecrae's verse, he talks about being part of the unashamed movement since 2002, before they even had 1-1-6 tattoos, and how he is always ready to spread the word of God, regardless of his location or language barriers.
