Me Dijeron de Pequeño

Manuel Carrasco Manuel Carrasco

They Told Me When I Was Little

They told me when I was little
Where are you going, you can't
And here I am still fighting
With the indecision as always
They taught me to grow up
At the feet of defeat
Those same ones that don't grow
And run away like idiots
I used to hide from myself
I searched for myself among the fears
They found me long before
I found myself
It still comes so suddenly
The alarms of shipwreck
And I defend myself
Out of fear of so much harm
Friends like vines
Artists of posing
Tickling your ears
Is part of their game
And I get tired of the lights
Of people, of lies
I'm bored of their words
Of the fake cool ones
And if you're going to act dignified
Comb your hair but on the inside
Dress up for yourself
Don't deceive yourself if it's not true
There's a drifting ship
In the doubts that assail me
I will continue its journey
Singing the words

And love me as I love you
That is, more than myself
But love yourself first
And the idyll will be strong
Don't look for me on the moon
Or in infinite space
Flying close to the ground
You'll find me right here
And just to make it clear
In case some don't understand
Scholars and experts
That my accent is my DNA
That it's not a flag
It's a lullaby
That my mother used to sing to me
Under the moonlight

If I look up
I know I'll see her
So ready for battle
That I don't need stars
To light my way
Or guide every step
The only thing I need
Is this desperate love
I'm one of those who never believe
Who bet on others
Sometimes it's hard for me to see myself
I close my own lock
Learning with more hunger
From achievements and failures
I still see the child
Reflected in the puddles
And love me as I love you
That is, more than myself
But love yourself first
And the idyll will be strong
Don't look for me on the moon
Or in infinite space
Flying close to the ground
You'll find me right here
And just to make it clear
In case some don't understand
Scholars and experts
That my accent is my DNA
That it's not a flag
It's a lullaby
That my mother used to sing to me
Under the moonlight

Love me as I love you
That is, more than myself
But love yourself first
And the idyll will be strong
Don't look for me on the moon
Or in infinite space
Flying close to the ground
You'll find me right here
But when I find space
In the rubble I resurrect
Even if I lose, I always win
Never count me out
How many times they've tried
To make me sell my principles
Thank goodness they couldn't
Tear me from my place
And just to make it clear
In case some don't understand
Scholars and experts
That my accent is my DNA
That it's not a flag
It's a lullaby
That my mother used to sing to me
Under the moonlight, oh
They told me when I was little
Where are you going, you can't
