De Este Lado

I'm on this side
I'm on this side
I'm still on this side, yes
I swear I'll never leave from here
Brother, I'm more rooted than ever
I tell you I'm on this side
I'm on this side
I'm still on your side, yes

Don't come to chase me because I start to rap and everyone stays quiet
I always told realities, I always aimed strong at my ideals
I stood out a few years ago for being the only rapper who told you truths
Today they all sound the same as those who said we were commercial
I represent those who listen to this genre in search of more original artists
People are dying of hunger, the government ties everything with wires
It gives me cramps to think about the money these cowardly people steal from the people
They have no shame, I saw police officers beating people who raised their voices and took them away

They don't want anyone to complain, they want you to bow your head
And if someone tries to speak, they are not heard and have no place
My people fight and will not get tired, let's go for more, more, let it sound more, more
They will kill your dreams by telling you that's what's best for you
They will make sure you don't understand and in that way make you what they want
They will take away what little is yours and keep it for those who have the most
Come on, many kids will die if we don't do anything to stop this
I'm on this side
I'm on this side

I'm still on this side, yes
I swear I'll never leave from here, brother, I'm more rooted than ever
I tell you I'm on this side
I'm on this side
I'm still on your side, yes
Don't come to chase me because I start to rap and everyone stays quiet
How can you live if little by little they steal all your hope?
What to do to survive if the end of the month comes and the money is not enough?
How can you live among so much misery and distrust?

While those who are governing you laugh and things don't progress
Sad and true
They won't kill me, I'd rather be dead than silent
They won't win and they have to pay for what they're destroying
My skin crawls thinking about those who are suffering
It's clear who's winning and who's losing
And there's never money for what matters, there's only money for chaos
Party, pills, and coke and they emptied education
The government only cuts while tension rises
They abandon those who abort and don't offer any options
Kids who have nothing
Kids who are not given a way out and end up as drug mules in the neighborhood selling as their only way of life
Kilos coming and going, bags of dollars like in the movies
While parents don't know what to do to stop the paco from killing kids
I'm on this side
I'm on this side

I'm still on this side, yes
I swear I'll never leave from here, brother, I'm more rooted than ever
I tell you I'm on this side
I'm on this side
I'm still on your side, yes
Don't come to chase me because I start to rap and everyone stays quiet
