El No Lo Mató (feat. Alex Lora)

It was easy for him
It was easy for him
And it's because nothing in life is easy
He drew his knife
And prepared to rob
A large popular grocery store

He was only seventeen years old
Well-lived, poorly lived, what do I know?

Everything was going wonderfully
For the first time
It wasn't so bad!

He entered the store
Pulled out the knife
And said loudly
This is a robbery
Hand over the money or you'll die

Everything was going well
He ran out of the store
At full speed
With the money in his hands
With his future in his hands
He prepared to escape

He crossed the main avenue without stopping
He was almost going to make it
It was when I closed my eyes
A shot was heard
It sounded like a cannon
Like a monster
Life took it away

The game was already over
A bullet pierced his heart

Ah, what a policeman, sir
He earned a promotion
And a medal for valor

He killed him
He was a child
Playing the thief
He was only 17 years old
Well-lived, poorly lived, what do I know?

He killed him
Without sense and without reason
For a handful of bills
I would have given them to him

His little body
Lay on the sidewalk
And the money
The wind took it away

Without sense and without reason
It was all a mistake
A stupid mistake

Parents, take care of your children
Don't let them go through
What I tell you

Damn the hour
When he went astray

Cursed be the moment
When he went wrong
Oh, what a policeman, sir
He didn't kill him
It was the same society
And the environment
In which he grew up
He didn't kill him
It was the environment
His parents, his friends, the need
His desires, what do I know?
Without sense and without reason
