Mala Infancia

Bad Childhood
I remember Carlitos, his mom pushed him to study
And to get his act together
I also remember Miguel, his mom hit him and forced him to go steal
That's why the jails are overcrowded
They complain, they complain that there's too much crime
But they don't tackle the root, which is childhood
Because due to a bad experience
They want to forget the bad by using violence
They criticize and criticize, and they don't know a thing
While I keep pushing through, coming from nothing
To tell them to wake up
Crime comes from a bad childhood
This is the story of Juanito
He was raped, he was beaten
They abused him, and no one listened when he was little
He forgot the bad with the smoke, then with the powder
And to manage his expenses, he committed many crimes
But the memories kept haunting him
And it tormented his mind so much
Since a relative had violated him
And for that reason, society calls him a criminal
They complain, they complain that there's too much crime
But they don't tackle the root, which is childhood
Because due to a bad experience
They want to forget the bad by using violence
They criticize and criticize, and they don't know a thing
While I keep pushing through, coming from nothing
To tell them to wake up
Crime comes from a bad childhood
Maybe it sounds like an excuse to you
But you can see it from both sides
When you cross the street
Here we play Russian roulette
Here cunning is allowed
Here, from the heart, I ask you
To give me inspiration for the song that I write
And you, who have criminal problems
Get out of the negative, brother, think positive
They complain, they complain that there's too much crime
But they don't tackle the root, which is childhood
Because due to a bad experience
They want to forget the bad by using violence
They criticize and criticize, and they don't know a thing
While I keep pushing through, coming from nothing
To tell them to wake up
Crime comes from a bad childhood
