Vida

First you are born, you don't know how, but you do
While your parents get ready, they don't seem capable
One more at home, there will be adjustments
The wastefulness is over, that car, the trips

They love you and they don't even know you yet
To you, they are just voices and faces you recognize
But they are painting a whole room for you
As if they were painters or something like that

That's what being happy is about, no need to overthink it
You'll be walking and they won't even realize, and
School will come, tantrums, stress
Grandparents acting as parents for the second time

Homework, obligations
I know they seem like a lot to you, and that amuses the adults
You'll understand it later, it's not the time
What makes you suffer is important if you carry it inside

They have to listen to you, give you your time
Communication is not the end but the foundation, and
While dad and mom argue out of exhaustion
You're waiting for the bell to leave the school

The first friends start, the square
'I'm already too old to come back home so soon'
Love is not a concern yet, although it's approaching
There are those looks that embarrass you

If they ask you, you don't want to talk about love
You'll know the pain later, no problem
Clothes are important now
People are very cruel to those who don't dress fashionably, and

You also pay attention to your body
You don't want to be the punching bag of those fools at school, and
You feel strange and have a bomb inside
Because you start having feelings without understanding them

And fear and sadness arrived at once, and
They talk to you about the future, but you still see it far away
At home, they demand just like the teacher
No one asks you anymore: 'How are you? Are you happy?'

Now it's time to decide in record time
Even if you think about it and don't like anything in particular
Because time goes faster than the wind, and
They say you have to be an expert in something, and

You're thinking about love and sex, and when to do it
I know you're thinking because you're about to do it, and
They say the first time is special
That's why you want it to be with that special someone, right?

You try to make it perfect and it turns out okay
But well, you relieve yourself from the weight of society
And there's something strange about this
As if by being first, you were something more than the rest, and

The time has come to pay for your outings
Your comings and goings, your flings, your moves
Arriving nervous at the first job
Trying to do it well and being yelled at often, and

Having a lump in your throat every time you get up
Because what you do doesn't fulfill you, but you endure it for money
And you're still alone, imagine
What your parents endured at work when you were a baby

And you're looking at houses, I don't know what's happening
But everything that was so far away is rushing towards you
Mom won't be with you anymore, nor dad either
Now they'll call you to see how everything is, and

You'll feel nostalgic at some point
Because you'll feel they need to see you and you don't have time, and
They don't deserve it because they always gave it to you
But you feel you have to focus on yourself first

We become selfish, we don't understand
That when a grandparent dies, a parent dies for them
That we are just passengers
And now that they're gone, you have four new stars in the sky

Living without grandparents is hard, accepting death
But somehow you always remember them
They are the old age that was in front
Reminding you that not even the softest skin lasts forever

Now it's time to overcome it and focus
They would want you to stay strong
To help your loved ones without losing yourself
And to have a beautiful memory of what they were in your mind

But it's difficult without them
How beautiful it is to know them, how difficult to lose them
How difficult it is for death to knock on the door of the house, and
Take our loved ones whenever it pleases, and

You have to keep going, head held high, firm head
You have to become one of those movie heroes
Keep walking even if no one encourages you, and
Keep believing in your plans, even if life ruins them many times

And just at that moment when you're walking slower
Someone arrives who makes you feel more special than the rest
Makes you feel plain, what's happening?
I think you're falling in love, and

You noticed it as strong as a tornado
That brought fresh air and took away all the bad
Suddenly life brought a gift
That person you stay at home with on a cloudy day

That person with whom everything makes sense
That's why you'll say: 'Are you brave enough to live with me?'
A move with the excitement of a child
You feel so safe that you no longer feel danger, and

You feel alive and strong, you've never been better
But don't forget that without sacrifice, not even love works
Don't forget that love is a flower
And you either water it daily, or you'll see it say goodbye

Don't forget it's a two-way street
And you either make them admire you every day or it's over
Enjoy it from the heart, that's the most important thing
Living each moment without thinking if there will be an end

Now it's time to travel, see the world
Get lost in their eyes, let the hours be seconds
Think about a future together, as a whole
Empathize to move forward, loving alone is not enough

Are you thinking about expanding the family?, what a matter
It's scary, but the excitement of doing it wins the battle, right?
The face your parents and theirs will make
When they know that now your turn really begins

Are you sure?, they'll ask you
And it's not that they don't find it amusing, it's that they already know how it goes
And how hard it was to educate, bring home the bread, follow a plan
Knowing that hugs are almost never returned

But they'll be there, don't forget that at any moment
Now it's nine tough months, but magical at the same time
Every day closer, more feelings
And the first ultrasound arrives and you're nervous

Because when you hear the heartbeat for the first time
A smile appears and the fears disappear
Because no matter how much you thought you knew
There's nothing like hearing it live and direct

Now the belly will grow by days
You're making numbers and lists that are endless
Crib, clothes, blankets, hundreds of diapers
The wastefulness is over, that car, the trips

And you're painting a whole room and you feel happy
As if you were a painter, or something like that
Suddenly, the hospital
The most brutal day you'll live, starts coming out of the gate

Cries, desires, you don't care
That day you understand that a mother's strength is something supernatural
Something special, superhuman
Like when they hand you the baby and you feel the world is in your hands

A new path begins and it scares you
Little by little, no one is born knowing how to parent
The sleepless nights start, the doubts
But it's normal, don't confuse nerves with disputes

And don't forget to take care of your partner
I know it's difficult, but you have to find space between bars
Your family will be there to support you
And the grandparents acting as parents some weekends

Take that time and recharge your batteries
A baby needs you strong and full of energy, and
If you don't have it at times, don't give up
When he smiles, it will make you keep fighting another day

You combine work, everything weighs a bit
You're getting older, I notice it
Because you're broken, but you keep going
Happy with what you have, but every day more distant from yourself

And that's not good, go down to the park
While the little one plays, think about how you always fought
Lately, you go down alone with him
As if nothing at home is like before

I know you don't know what happened, but that tornado
That came in the form of love seems to have ended
And you resist because you're in love
But everything is so broken that you can't fix it

And you want to, but it's a two-way street
And the other person said goodbye, it's over, and
Where do you start to tell your mind
That the future you dreamed of stayed on a table?

With two cups and such a tough discussion
That you cried like a child without their parents in the crib
There are doubts on the horizon
But friends who never left arrived

They'll be your refuge along with the little one
Friends forever, protectors of your dreams
Dad and mom will go out to give you what you need
And they'll give you advice on the grayest days

So pack your bags, feel new again
Recover your hobbies, dance without fear
Meet yourself again, like a date
Where you give yourself the forgiveness and love you need

You spend more and more time alone
And although your child loves you, he's doing his own thing
It's time for quality, not quantity
And for him to know that when he falls, you'll be there behind him

And you're screwed by your parents now
You see them older, they need help from someone else
How hard it is to look at them, see that they're ending
The two people who were waiting for you when you were born

Now you see them painting your room, right?
Now you see them hiding Christmas gifts
Now you remember everything and the end arrives
You'll keep their clothes in the closet and smell them to remember

But you'll do it when your child isn't looking
He's sad for losing them and you want him to understand
How difficult is that combination
Of being broken and trying to be the saving hand

I know you're looking for courage, but you have it
After so many things, there's no one to stop you
You have many years left to enjoy
Your child, friends, falling in love again

You live alone now, your child is making his way
And although he doesn't call every day, you have to be positive
He's doing everything you already did
And that makes you as proud as the day you met him, and

They left the world in your hands
Soon it will be in his, they called you to celebrate
You're going to be a grandparent and you'll also ask
Are you sure?, really?, let's fight!

Now you have more time than before
You read more, walk more, and glance at the park
There's still strength to meet with friends
And spend the day together like retirement kids

Family meals, some gym
You have to stay active to age slowly
You feel lonely sometimes, but what's strange
Is that at the same time it's what you want, finally some space

And in your gaze is what you've been through
There's a hidden tiredness and at the same time the shine of what you've achieved
Hand in hand with your grandchild
Proud to tell stories he'll never forget

Many years of life separate you
But when you're playing together, no one would say
You forget things often, and you get angry
Because you feel capable of continuing to be the one who takes care of you

But no one agrees with you
And this week you've lost yourself twice when you went out
You talk about school without any sense, and
You remember more what happened years ago than what you've eaten

Feel alive until the beats stop
The day has come to forget everything you've suffered
There's little left and your loved ones are with you
Squeezing your hand to walk calmly

Do you see those flashes?, they're the end of the road
That you started hand in hand with your parents
Now it's time to think that what you've lived
Has been the best path because you managed to love yourself

Do you see those flashes?, they're the end of the road
That you followed without your parents for your children
Now it's time to think that what you've lived
Has been the best path because you walked it with yourself

Do you see those flashes?, they're the end of the road
That you started hand in hand with your parents
Now it's time to think that what you've lived
Has been the best path because you managed to love yourself

Do you see those flashes?, they're the end of the road
That you followed without your parents for your children
Now it's time to think that what you've lived
Has been the best path because you walked it with yourself

Yaoh, the Black Wolf
AMBKOR, we've done it again

Here it's about feeling
Every step, every moment
It's your turn, yaoh
And you
