Free Solo

I have an infinite void like space
Like the one who lives alone in a grand palace
Like the one who climbs Aconcagua without strength
Like the one who screams for help in the water
A canoe and a paddle against a shark
A Kalashnikov against a stick
That's how I feel no matter how much I climb
Because in this story the good always loses against the bad
And, these petals that have fallen
Hold them, they're not mine I told the past
And I'm tired, of living tied
I'm going to climb my whole life without ropes or nails, just with my hands

If life is a gift I'm going to open it
With the excitement of a child on Three Kings Day
I know what happened to me, and I know what happened to you
Between the sticks and the years, we have changed
And if we don't take risks there are no smiles
If you want to feel the breeze, you have to lean out the ledge
To hell with the shirt, the schedules
I can't find a good excuse not to kiss your lips
You fill your glass, failure is accepted
What is not accepted is not trying to succeed with each step
And not accepting it is the mistake
What has become of what you always said you would be when you grew up, huh?
I ran out of goals
And even the map I carried was already giving up on me
My legs started shaking on the way
And I realized that if something trembles it's because it's still alive

Free solo, I won't let myself be carried away
If the wind doesn't take me where I want, I'll start over
I still have time to fix my wings
Just look at them, how they escape from the bad streaks
Free solo, no one can judge you
Only those who truly try can make mistakes
And I still have time to stop their bullets
Just look at them, as much as they hurt, they no longer sting

Looking back at the precipice
The beginning is getting further away
I don't want a reset button anymore
Because everything I was is what has marked my principles
How do I forget how happy I was with you?
Before I kept quiet, now I say it
How do I forget the words of a friend
Who gave me what he had when I was most lost?
There are people who are maps, stages
And others who when you have problems, they run away
You don't need capes to be a superhero
If you've already endured a thousand life storms in the open air
Sensitive by default, almost never serious
I laugh at people, in case they're suffering
Because no one has a body without wounds
Or an easy path, even if they don't say it
Life, changes, blows, when everything comes crashing down
Don't forget that you live within what you imagine
No one will steal what you carry inside
If you charge yourself with energy on the days you're happy
Today I keep beating, walking slowly
Knowing that the summit is closer if I understand myself
I don't lie to myself anymore, I don't lie to you anymore
Nothing can save more things than a timely truth
Have you seen that mountain so far away?
Maybe you won't climb it tomorrow
But how close it is depends only on your desire
Because dreams worth having are not given away

Free solo, I won't let myself be carried away
If the wind doesn't take me where I want, I'll start over
I still have time to fix my wings
Just look at them, how they escape from the bad streaks
Free solo, no one can judge you
Only those who truly try can make mistakes
And I still have time to stop their bullets
Just look at them, as much as they hurt, they no longer sting

I was born from the womb of a woman
Who even though she was afraid, wanted to have me
From that moment I could learn
That fear is not everything and it won't defeat us
That day came when it was time to lose
To say goodbye to her, and start running
And today is the moment to understand
That everything worth it can also hurt
Free Solo, we did it again (eh-eh)
Ha, the black wolf (eh-eh)
The heart exposed, oh
Another damn league
That's what it is, crazy (eh-eh)
The damn black wolf (eh-eh)
And you not, brother
And you not, and you not, and you not, oh
