No Voy a Caer

I have my fists with blood from so much fighting
I have my soul tired of waiting
I endured the darkness and affliction
I let them break my heart
How many times did I feel that nothing
Of what I did mattered?

Since I was a child I understood how cruel life would be
Always looking for a way out
To escape from that
Harmful carousel that would leave wounds on my skin
While it tastes like bile

Knowing that I can't even protect
The one I love the most from an insane place and return
Constantly to that same hell
Hence your blows and eternal judgment

I felt them breaking me but I didn't give up
Drowned in my tears I just smiled
Falsely so they can unload on me
All their violence and frustration

What can a child do alone with such a huge burden?
To know that no matter how hard he fights it remains bitter
The reality in his home but I'm not going to fail
Today I will show them

That I'm not going to fall until the end
I will stand tall against the harsh life
And I won't give in even when evil
Wants to see me lose
I will boil with determination

I got lost in the cold streets
Unable to silence my mind
There was no comfort for me
Nor the scourge of the drug that
Took my friends and that innocent love
I had but the pain
Stayed with me
I wasn't aware of the harsh punishment

I only knew that my strong conviction
Was not going to be the weak prey of a crude addiction
And despite the sadness I was always in action
To change my cruel fate and putrefaction

No one believed in that boy who dreamed of changing
This disgusting unjust and superficial world
Not even my family bet a single penny on me
But I promised myself

That I'm not going to fall until the end
I will stand tall against the harsh life
And I won't give in even when evil
Wants to see me lose
I will boil with determination

That boy who cried alone
Today you can see he overcame everything
No matter how much life hurt him
And the years wore him down
He never gave up and the world changed

And I'm not going to fall until the end
I will stand tall against the harsh life
And I won't give in even when evil
Wants to see me lose
I will boil with determination
