Fijo Mio

My son, come here,
Listen to your dad,
Considering that I brought you into this world,
I have to tell you the whole truth,
You'll live, without mistakes.
We talk to you
Like you're a man now,
It might not be right, but the things you’ll know
Aren't fairy tales with blue fairies,
My son, I’ll teach you life my way
Because you can't afford to lose yourself.
Believe in God if you want,
Pray if you feel like it,
But if it goes wrong, then just let it go,
Prayers won’t help you survive,
Believe in yourself, only in yourself.
A lot of nonsense won’t help you;
And don’t ask us about Pinocchio because we’ll never
Tell you he lived a long time ago,
You know why? Because that wouldn’t be the truth
How can a puppet cry!
You have the same blood in your veins as me,
You’re my son, but if I were gone,
Who would you turn to? You won’t get help from Pinocchio.
Only you can lend yourself a hand...
