Qué Va

Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away
What moves us is the sincerity that doesn't expire in life
Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away
Even if the years see us change
Like a record on the turntable, pure dough
The needle goes to the heart

We throw The Wailers in the blender
With the warmth of Jovim
And the boldness of Astor Piazzola
And so with so much to discover
And of course there's some Cheo in the voice and Lavoe's lalalalá
And we always had salsa, jazz, and funk
Hip-hop, troubadour, feeling, and soul

Escaping the norm is how you live, yeah
If you settle, you're not free

Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away
What moves us is the sincerity that doesn't expire in life
Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away
Even if the years see us change

It's not by chance
Every step, from instinct to vision
And I feel it, I can't lie to myself
No, I don't want to repeat myself
That vice of limiting oneself
It's a job, not art
We've always been different, eccentric, rebellious
And if now we're trendy
But what a good trend

Escaping the norm is how you live
If you settle, you're not free

Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away
Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away, never haha
Oh no, what's up, this essence won't go away, oh no
What's up, this essence won't go away
It won't go away, never

We've always been different, eccentric, rebellious
And if now we're trendy
But what a good trend
If speaking out is trendy
But what a good trend
And if feeling is trendy
What a good trend, what a good trend

What's up, what's up, what's up, what's up
This essence will never go away
What's up, what's up, what's up, what's up
The one who speaks the least always says the most
What's up, what's up, what's up, what's up
This essence will never go away
What's up, what's up, what's up
