La Esquina del Mariachi (feat. Alcolirykoz)

Make sure that
Your words are better than silence
They repeated the phrase, ignoring the intent
They left shouting
Remember to forget me, 'cause a bullet
Is waiting for me anywhere
I got 33 in my hood, that's a record
I live how I want, they say I'm rich
With so much evidence and they don't lock up the ex-president
They kill a graffiti artist, another accident
I keep giving free serenades
When night falls, I return to the mariachi corner
My second home is Bogotá
I have nameless sorrows
Unpacked suitcases
My fears roam the streets without escorts
I have this finger
That not even the Sun could hide
I'm alive because of music
You all are pets
My rap, you can't tame it
How much I owe to irony
The early bird who becomes a dad sleeps late every day
I really am my own boss
I always thought
Those who don't know how to lead should obey

If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
Ayo', there'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know (shh)

Make sure to breathe in as much air as you can
Be thankful for the Sun you can't see but tweet about
For being born alive, even if there are debts
It's better to owe a bank than the bank of your ideas
10 years of war mean nothing to a soldier
That's why I don't show my medals, I keep them
Under the same sky, the good has floated
Talent isn't talent when there's no work
And make sure your life is different
Write what even your mind can't decipher
Like an old poet, I draw inspiration from your wounds
Like an old mariachi, I sing and charge my fee
Make sure to forget to love and kiss before it's time
Live, die, be born, but in different bodies
I was messed up, I still remember that moment
But art always arrives when there's no life in your chest
And if it hasn't, study and progress
The hood stays the same, there are more plates on the table
It's sad to know, ignorance weighs heavy
The country with both hands still doesn't know how to use the left

If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
Ayo', there'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know (shh)

Make sure to find yourself as quickly as possible
Even mistakes will make you unmistakable
Only the truth will set you free
In a country like this, it can make you invisible
I always wrote for therapeutic reasons
And you all are asking for the formula for success
Others asked what I do for a living
I'm the patient with a doctor's handwriting
I self-medicate, that's my profession
I have victory screams stuck in my sternum
My drugs are concerts
Give me a little more time to explain that emotion
From the stage to the corner
Those you called bums wake up from the hood
My noise doesn't discriminate
They want more soldiers than artists
It doesn't exist, if you're not in their system
You pay taxes even for protesting
Sharing memes won't fix the problem
Now everything is evident, there's no denying it
When I said, we'll meet again

If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
Ayo', there'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know
There'd be so much silence
If we only talked about what we know (shh)

Make sure to be the solution, not part of the problem
We learned in the hood to see the light in poverty
To look for a trade that sometimes becomes a burden
Easy to bear like tough mariachis
Leaving everything for the love of graffiti
To the warriors of the lines
To the sky, vskings
To those who aren't here, you'll always see them on the street
Memory is the greatest treasure
When we meet again and Antonia is this giant
Let's remember the boleros of unforgettable days
Rap serenades
Even if we change the beat
From Aranjuez to La Estrada
I traveled in the back seat
The king said
Don't arrive first, you gotta know how to arrive
Independent doesn't use excuses to sleep more
We met at night with so much to tell
With this dream of changing the face of national rap
Producers like harpies
Only think about the credits
My merit is much more than a Grammy on your shelf
These loops that make you laugh
Have saved more than one kid
Make sure your dreams become fulfilled goals

The ones from the corner are back
The ones from the mariachi corner
From La Estrada to Aranjuez
Alcolirykoz, Aerophon
Medellín, Bogotá
Marias in the corner and on the streets
With double A batteries, my dude
Aerophon
How it was, how it was
From A to Z
Aha
For mountaineers, to the city
