[Intro — Female, rhythmic] Dime, dime, ¿qué lo que? Building my future every day. Aunque hoy no marque en el reloj, Sigo aprendiendo, sigo en acción. [Male — Confident, measured] Look, if I’m not physically clocked in, Don’t confuse my position with the work I’m putting in. LinkedIn connections, new skills in rotation, Learning with a purpose, building my foundation. LinkedIn Learning, expanding my range, CUNY Upskill, putting knowledge to change. Financial literacy, starting from zero, Learning how money works, building toward tomorrow. [Female — Caribbean Spanish] No estoy parada, estoy preparándome, Buscando contactos, capacitándome. Cada lección me puede abrir una puerta, La mente está activa, la visión despierta. Desde cero se empieza, no hay nada de malo, Lo importante es aprender cada paso. No todo se mide por dónde estás hoy, También por el conocimiento que contigo construyó. [Pre-Drop — Both] Learn that skill! (Build that base!) Haz conexiones! (Set your pace!) Study, apply! (Make it real!) Paso por paso, progress you can feel! [DROP — Both, chopped vocals] Learn it! Build it! Put it to work! Aprende, conecta, demuestra tu worth! Zero to knowledge, knowledge to skill, Skills into value — that’s the real deal! Link up! Level up! Open that door! Sigue estudiando, aprende mucho más! Not just a paycheck, I’m building a plan, Con visión y disciplina, doing all that I can! [Verse 2 — Male] I make real connections, not a numbers game, Reach out with substance, let them know my name. Ask thoughtful questions, follow through, Bring something useful to the people I connect to. A certificate’s a start, application is key, Practice what I learn, build competency. Financial literacy: know what comes in, Track what goes out, make the next dollar begin To serve a real purpose, prepare for the cost, Understand the interest, know the gains and the loss. No overnight promise, no shortcut scheme, Just learning and action behind every dream. Whether work is onsite or the laptop’s my station, I’m still doing the work of professional elevation. [Female — Spanish] Con CUNY Upskill voy sumando herramientas, Cada nuevo concepto abre nuevas puertas. Aprendo de finanzas, organizo mi plan, Conocer mis opciones me ayuda a avanzar. Un contacto genuino puede orientar, Pero la relación también hay que cultivar. No se trata de aparentar posición, Se trata de aportar con preparación. [Build — Male and Female] From zero? Start learning! ¿Sin experiencia? Sigue creciendo! One new skill, one connection made, One smart decision, one stronger foundation laid. [DROP 2 — Both] Learn it! Build it! Put it to work! Aprende, conecta, demuestra tu worth! Zero to knowledge, knowledge to skill, Skills into value — that’s the real deal! LinkedIn! Learning! Conexiones creciendo! Financial knowledge! Mi futuro construyendo! [Bridge — Male, warm and direct] My value isn’t measured by a time-clock alone. I’m building capabilities that can stand on their own. I’m preparing for work while pursuing the next step, Turning what I learn into value I can present. [Female — Melodic Spanish] Hoy me preparo, mañana veré, Con cada herramienta más fuerte estaré. No importa el comienzo, importa avanzar, Lo que aprendo hoy lo puedo aplicar. [Final Drop — Both, full energy] From zero to progress! De cero al progreso! Skills in my hands and a plan in the proceso! Learn it! Build it! Connect and create! Preparando el futuro, elevando mi level! From zero to knowledge, from knowledge to skill, Financial awareness and professional will. No waiting for permission to invest in my growth, Estoy trabajando en mí — that’s the promise I hold! [Outro — Female] Aunque no esté en la oficina, sigo en movimiento. [Male] Learning. Connecting. Preparing for the next opportunity. [Both] De cero a progreso. One skill at a time. One connection at a time. See you at the workshop or the next career fair Palante Siempre Palante Always foward not regression focus up and stay humble but assertive is self care not arrogant
