Triunfo o Derrota

El Elote El Elote

Triumph or Defeat

A triumph a defeat
Is to live or die
Is to enter or exit
Is to go down or up
Keep in mind no one ever stays on top
Newton said it and life proves it
You must be prepared for the fall and get up
You lose a battle but the war goes on
Leave your trench and prepare your counterattack
Attacks of rage and disappointment
It's what you think I've let you win every time
You're mistaken
From losing you learn and become a better player
Put aside that stone you stumbled upon
And keep walking
Because future rewards are waiting for you
With those bitter sips of disappointment
Experience is not a gift
It's knowledge acquired through suffering and pain
Don't look for more explanation
Don't attribute your successes or failures to your bad luck
To unexplainable phenomena like abstract
These are the extracts of your daily actions
Results of foresight meditations
Better take care of your actions trying to be better
Facing the barriers that prevent you from being a winner
If you lose today don't regret it or bow your head
The character you gain will make you different

I open my eyes, once again I touch the ground
By another blow shaken by the relentless force of luck
Always against me
Every time I let my guard down it hits my face
This uncertain life once again reminds me to be alert
That I have no extra luck
That I have to make my own luck, nothing will fall from the sky
Only thunderstorms and each lightning will seek to split me in two
But none of them corner me
This dog reacts to every blow
More aggressive every time, less human
I hate the canvas because I know what it feels like to fall
And what it feels like when your leg doesn't react
This fight for life is in the fifth round
And if today I'm losing it, I won't throw in the towel
For the things that have put me face down
I swallow my bitter saliva
I clench my jaw, my gaze seeks victims to blame
Not who did it to me but who will pay for it
This is fair I think not but it's not fair that it happens to me
In life I hate second places
Or ties, being a winner in everything I can
What keeps me always one step ahead
I risk teeth in this, yes I do
But triumph is worth it

If you fall to the ground do you stay there or do you get up later
It's not a game the decision is now
Win or lose live or die decide what you want
Victory or defeat there's no other option seek glory right now
Because your time is running out

I want to live not just exist
Drinking is a delight if it doesn't make me feel better
And although it prevents me from thinking about feeling worse
The artificial sooner or later brings you back to reality
Each time more cruel each time more raw and if there's doubt in proceeding
Because it's true defeats follow one after the other self-esteem
Crumbles
And what's left for me is to get up among the rubble and keep going
Rebuilding little by little
Always seeking perfection that no one ever achieves
I know that but it will weigh more on the balance
The difference between who shouts and who stays silent
That's me I don't seek medals for triumphs
My triumphs are my homies and my girls
Always here with me they never let me down it's basic in me
The rest is a bonus victory is here
As a witness isn't it??

How many times have I had to stop crying
And assume one more defeated battle
Get up and walk towards nothing in search of an uncertain future
Watching as my successes crumble one by one at the least
Opportune moment, I want to think that this won't happen again
Because one more fall my being may not withstand
It's better not to look back, not to remember fleeing from life
From mediocrity
And never return, take the bull by the horns and regain the
Reins of the path
Because I don't believe in destiny I believe life has to be
Forged by oneself
It's not the same for life to hit you as to let life hit you
For everything there will always be a way out
I know it and I've lived it I know it's hidden
This game only has two parts
There are no ties you stay behind or ahead
Decide it at this moment

If you fall to the ground do you stay there or do you get up later
It's not a game the decision is now
Win or lose live or die decide what you want
Victory or defeat there's no other option seek glory right now
Because your time is running out
