Por Eso Canto

For the life that lies ahead of me and for the nights when I embrace the moon
for moments I kept somewhere for maintaining balance in my madness
for admiring dazzling sunrises for eagerly awaiting my future
for taking down arrogant jerks for not putting up with tough guys at the party
For sighing when disappointments appear for trusting my soul to the untrustworthy
for enduring the passage of years without fear, giving hope to the desperate

That's why I sing, to add more color to the tears
that's why I rise, to add more color to life
to release the contained freedom

For knowing how to interpret so many looks, breaking the ice with people, without prejudice
coping with complicated situations, being tolerant of our small vices
For not getting overwhelmed by everyday problems, feeling free without it being a crime
to reach out not only to those closest, falling in love when the heart demands it
For forgiving so many mistakes made, for sweetening the lives of the bitter
knowing how to interpret a friend's hug, opening the eyes of the blinded

That's why I sing, to add more color to the tears
that's why I rise, to add more color to life
to release the contained freedom, which is yours and mine, which is yours and mine

That's why I sing to add more color to the tears, to appreciate wonderful charms
to release tensions that make life bitter
That's why I rise to add more color to life, to try to make this lie a truth
to release the contained freedom
