Entre La Vida Y La Muerte

It was a day like any other, they knocked on my door
I was in the living room doing some calculations
About some business I had closed
I had earned too much money

I had connected with those at the top
I was respected almost everywhere
I would never think of leaving this job
Minutes passed and they kept knocking
What was my surprise when I finally opened
That death had arrived

I don't want to waste your time
I've come to tell you
That you have one day to say goodbye
Pack your bags, you will leave with me
Where I will take you, I will tell you later
With luck, you may see your friends
Some of your enemies
Who, like you, fulfill their punishment
We will meet again soon, for today I say goodbye
And I regret to remind you of this, my friend
You have one day to be alive

For a moment I thought about having a party
Calling the band and drinking beer
But I preferred to go see my family
They hugged me, tears were flowing
I settled problems with the police
And at a support center, I gave what I had
I asked for forgiveness from those I owed
I stopped doing things I shouldn't
My parents cried, it hurt me
They knew I was saying goodbye

I felt dead in life, full of sadness
I had to change, it came to my mind
But it was already late, time had passed
Death had returned very punctually
She said smiling, you are forgiven
I admit I was very surprised

Today your life changes, your world has turned
I have given you another chance
Value your life, and if you fail, be careful
Because I will be watching you
