The Day of My Luck (feat. Héctor Lavoe)
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
When I was a child, my mom died
Alone, with the old man, she left me
She said: You will never be alone
Because he did not expect an illness
At ten years old, dad died
He went with mom to the beyond
And people said when they saw me cry
Don't cry, kid, your luck will change
And when will it be?
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
(Listen to me)
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Waiting for my luck, I was left
But, my life, took another direction
Surviving in a reality
From which I could not escape
To eat, you have to earn money
Even against this society
To jail, my friend writes to me
Don't worry, your luck will change
Listen, you'll see
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Now, I find myself here in my loneliness
Thinking what will become of my life
I have no place to return to
And I don't want to burden anyone
If destiny betrays me again
I swear I can't fail
I'm tired of waiting so much
And I'm sure my luck will change
And when will it be?
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
I suffered the part of my life already
Without an inferiority complex
That's why I don't tire of waiting
Because one day, God will help me
And the day that happens, listen to me
I will help everyone
Because, sooner or later, you will see
How the day of my luck will come
And you will see
Now yes
Take me, I'm going without a jockey
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Many times I contemplate
That I have never harmed anyone
Why does life have to treat me like this
If what I seek is happiness?
I try to please humanity
But my happiness here has been fatal
I don't lose hope of fighting
And I'm sure my luck will change
But when will it be?
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Soon it will come
The day of my luck
I know before my death
Surely my luck will change
Waiting, I will have to go through life
I will not be able to endure this torment
And I ask how long will it last
Also if I can bear it
If destiny betrays me again
I swear I can't fail
I'm tired of waiting so much
And I'm sure my luck will change
But when will it be?
