Cristales

And why did I have to see you through crystals? Crystals

My mother told me to be careful of the one next to you
Who always smiles when you have everything
All that you have achieved on your own, never believe in others' success
I told her mom, I don't believe that, I think now everyone is my friend
She said: A friend is not someone new, but the one who was there for you in bad times

I replied coldly, feeling like something was telling me in my mind
No one ever stood us up at the table, no one cares if it's hot
She told me no matter what you haven't received, help those who are worse off
God will repay you double, and it will be better, with love, never hold grudges
I thought and forgot all the bad things, I knew who was real and who wasn't worth it
I said: Mom, why do the authorities, when you haven't done anything, tell you not to leave?

Doing good, and sometimes they even stop me
And tell me mom, why do they have control over me?
Mom doesn't want to see you inside anymore
And they would leave me dead if you were gone

Seeing how all the illegal ones are better
Mom, tell me, why did I have to see you through crystals?
Mom, tell me, why did I have to see you through crystals?
Crying as if my life is worthless

She calmly replied and smiled
And told me: You brought the cold upon yourself in the streets
You said: Mom, I always trust that friend
And son, now he's not there when you're detained
I said: Mom, I always cried for help

I only saw the bars and the downpours
I saw that everything was more serious in the streets
And no one was involved in the middle
And it's a change, only self-interest helps you
And it's a change, Son, don't you see it?
How little they care about you, how little they care about you
And tell me who's there when you're gone

And mom, sometimes I imagine, a path where everyone is with me
And mom, where are they on the path?, where were they when they left?

Doing good, and sometimes they even stop me
And tell me mom, why do they have control over me?
Mom doesn't want to see you inside anymore
And they would leave me dead if you were gone

Seeing how all the illegal ones are better
Mom, tell me, why did I have to see you through crystals?
Mom, tell me, why did I have to see you through crystals?
Crying as if my life is worthless

Why did I have to see you through crystals?
Why did I have to see you through crystals?
Mom, tell me, why did I have to see you through crystals?
Crying as if my life is worthless
As if my life is worthless
