El Paso Del Tiempo
Dante
The Passage of Time
I left inspiration in a forgotten corner
Many times it whispers to me, and it's me who says nothing
I don't worry about taking care of it even a little
But then I blame it for not being there when I need it
Forgive me, I swear I don't do it on purpose
That I looked for you, that I looked for myself, but it's hard for me
That I waited for you to write at all costs
But you only wake up when you hit rock bottom
Because I feel the weight of time on my back
I understand that neither facts nor words support me
I look at myself in the mirror, I see myself in the reflection
And I think the boy I miss is far away
And it's because the past bites, and you feel that pair of
Reasons to explode when your chest burns
I tried to be a man, but it was too late
My grandfather passed away, and I didn't say goodbye out of cowardice
And right now, I regret the mistakes I made
But without having made so many mistakes, I wouldn't be here, right?
I promised myself not to stray from the path
And with a smile, I sailed through everything that came
And if I write something now, I do it with reason
And I don't show off. I tear out my heart
I place it carefully right next to yours
And I show that I have problems. Just like everyone else
I also have the right to worry and miss
And I also have the right to get angry over trivial things
I also have the right not to always be the good one
Because whether you like it or not, not every day will be good
I also have the right to distance myself from the world for a while
Focus on myself, and stop being who I am being
Knowing how to apologize, and forgive if necessary
Knowing how to say no, and not remember what hurts
And with the passage of time, I saw that I could achieve it
I learned that it didn't matter if someone saw me cry
I learned that we all are born with wings
But not everyone has the courage to fly
And finally, I found myself saying yes, and I nodded invincible
And that's how I grew, lived, continued, finally felt free
Almost always with firm steps
And not even losing balance have I considered giving up
Nothing is easy, but I know
That you have to fight to achieve your dreams
I don't give up, you see
I keep walking with firm steps, putting effort into it
Nothing is easy, I know
But I grow stronger with the passing of the years
With my goals set on
Growing as a person, and keep climbing steps, because
Nothing is easy, but I know
That you have to fight to achieve your dreams
I don't give up, you see
I keep walking with firm steps, putting effort into it
Nothing is easy, I know
But I grow stronger with the passing of the years
With my goals set on
Growing as a person, and keep climbing steps
