En El Desierto
Daddy Yankee
In The Desert
(Xound Music)
When will this pain end? (This pain)
I feel like fear stole my courage
It lashes out with its power
And I have to overcome, I have to overcome, I have to overcome
The battle without my thoughts, I’m not lying
I don’t have the strength to go on, but I won’t give up
In the desert, I’m growing
Despite what I’m going through, I’m still learning
What it means to have patience
I’m building my resilience
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks in the desert
I have to win the war against anxiety
I have a life and I’m gonna fight for it
Like a lion roaring in the dark
I’m gonna win, I’m gonna win (Lord)
Free me from panic and insomnia
Renew my mind, rebuke the guilt and my demons
This is one day at a time without losing faith
What I don’t understand now, I’ll get later
I’m creating new habits with sacrifice
Leaving behind the vices and hitting the gym hard
The vultures won’t eat my leftovers
The enemy is shocked
Because I’m a warrior in the midst of shadows
The wind whispers its words of fear
But I resist, I’m gonna win the battle inside
No child of God loses the war against depression, not me
In the desert, I’m growing
Despite what I’m going through, I’m still learning
What it means to have patience
I’m building my resilience
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks in the desert
Lonely place (I’m here), place of change (I keep going)
Place of affliction, of transformation (for the better)
Place of thirst (thirst), place of faith! (Faith!)
Place of experience (yeah), of resilience (let’s go)
Place of the weak, place of the strong (that’s me)
Place of life, place of death
When I faced what I feared
I realized I wasn’t as weak as I thought
Lord, help me see that You’re always there
Clear my confusion, bring me back to You
Help me believe in Your word, not in my emotions
You gave me power to crush snakes and scorpions
Self-control governs my feelings
I keep renewing myself through suffering
I feel like You’re making me new again
In the desert, I’m growing
Despite what I’m going through, I’m still learning
What it means to have patience
I’m building my resilience
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks
In the desert, I’ll leave my marks
I’ll leave my marks, I’ll leave my marks in the desert
