No Es Egoísmo (feat. El Chojin)

I've been wondering for a while now
If I give what I can or give less
I always thought I could do a thousand things I haven't done yet
Today, I think I tend to leave myself for later
To always fulfill them first
It's not that I blame them, I have a commitment and I accept it
It's just that I'm afraid of forgetting that I must find my moments
To have my time to allow myself to be the center
And instead of doing what I should, do what I want

It's not selfishness, it's health, that's all it is
The same weight sometimes weighs more, and sometimes less
If I know I'm carrying as much as I can
That's it, I don't have to demand more from myself, let's see if I learn
That I am a person, not a salary
It's not sensible to expect everything to turn out perfect
It's not right to treat myself worse than I treat others
And that I owe myself love and respect
It's not selfishness, and if they see it that way, well, I'm sorry
But what is not taken care of tends to end up breaking
And no, let them say what they want, but broken, no

It's not selfishness
If you ever see me
Dedicating time to be with myself
It's not selfishness
It's my health, I simply need it
I have to treat myself more gently
I don't punish myself for taking a break, no, it's not selfishness

It's very curious, but I've realized something
The things I've desired don't always make me happy
I want to achieve a milestone, and I'm very clear about it
But then it comes and it wasn't that big of a deal
I don't even know how to wish correctly
So it's strange, but I don't rule out
That with some failure I may have ended up winning
I want to simplify it, but it's complicated
And that's why sometimes I need space

I take care of others because I care about them, and I do it gladly
But let me have my moments of taking care of myself
Because I also get tired
And it's not fair if you see disinterest on my side where there's only tiredness
I do what I can, I reach what I reach
And it's not healthy to demand so much from myself
Anger and frowns hurt when I fail at something
But it hurts more when they don't appreciate that you tried
I'm trying, sorry if I don't measure up
But why did they think I would do everything right all the time?
I guess it's my fault, right? I don't know

It's not selfishness
If you ever see me
Dedicating time to be with myself
It's not selfishness
It's my health, I simply need it
I have to treat myself more gently
I don't punish myself for taking a break, no, it's not selfishness

It's not selfishness
