Mauricio Mil Canciones

Yeah, yeah
Life ain't kind to Mauricio
He met rap on the street
And also met vice
His trade
The hustle, the grind
Works any job he can find
And makes rap songs
In the time he has left
Dreams of being a singer
Making a living from art
Wants to be a rapper
Respected and important
Sports violent dark circles
From writing all night long

Hits the streets for coins
That he saves up by month's end
Asks for money
For his needs
His free time is spent composing
Over the beat
Thinks one day
He'll drop a hit
But I'm sorry, sorry
Sometimes there's no food
For those who are hungry
His ship has sailed
Just lost in time
Since luck
Never blew his way

I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind
And I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind

And no matter how hard he tries
His strength isn't enough
And no matter how much he walks
It seems he's not moving forward
Mauro keeps believing
But seems to be getting tired
Faith is sad
All morale is dragging
His desires
Turned gray
The light that shone on him
Underneath some mountains
Drunk
To embellish his lies
Where all his failures
Turned into feats

Because hope
Turns into depression
Seeing his attempts
End in frustration
Mauricio thousand songs
Never worked for him
So desperate
He asked himself

Two failures
For every two tries
Why does this happen to me
If I love each of my texts
I detest
What I've become
Lost and consumed
In this damn world

Oh drugs that drown me
We talk about a noose
With little demons
Conversing inside me
To hell
I don't want anymore
I just want peace
I can't take it anymore

I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind
And I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind
I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind

Now he has his soul
With the body of a frustrated man
Seems alive
But inside, tuned
His light has been extinguished
That's why it doesn't shine for him
Seeing how his dream
Turned into a nightmare

And this isn't a tragic story
Where Mauro dies
Although it is a tragedy
To live without what you want
In the end, no one saw
When this star faded
And that's the reality
Of many of my peers
Of many of my peers
Of many of my peers
And this is a song dedicated
To all those peers
All neighborhood talents
Who have lost themselves in life
Who have lost themselves in life

I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind
And I can't take it anymore
Just want peace
So much frustration
Leave it all behind
