La Senda

The path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me
To the path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me to wisdom

I could've been weak and gone with the flow, yeah
I could've taken the easy path, done it that way
I could've followed the rules and not protest
I could've fought fewer battles, play without more? Never!
You can shake it off
Pressure will never work on me
I bless my passion, the heart will triumph
And they will give me reason, my song will play
Who makes an effort and gives their all?
May strength and patience guide me, amen
I only know that I know nothing, yet I never stop learning
I want to make you understand why I chose this path
I swore to be loyal to myself
A simple life without goals would be a punishment
As a child, I never walked marked paths
That's why I was punished and left marked

And so, as a result of the impotence and rebellion of an untamable child, the artist, the fighter, the person I am today was born within me

The path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me
To the path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me to wisdom

Always be ready to tell the truth and the scoundrel will avoid you
I simply try to be happy, sink your rival and they will acclaim you
Life is like a big circus
Staining the sword with blood or being the prey of beasts
The big fish eats the small one
Dying in salty waters or thriving in fish tanks
It's a matter of ambition and conviction
Who desires and doesn't act engenders pestilence
My salvation must be your prison
Even if it's madness, I don't want mercy
I won't let myself be enslaved
And by taking my place, maybe the wound will heal
Too good to be true?
Or too real to sympathize with?

And time passed, there were peaks and falls, and I rose from my ashes, and seeking balance within without giving up on being free, I found more fire

The path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me
To the path that most wouldn't choose
Made me cry but a thousand times I'd do it again
A sunrise gives the energy
The path of excess leads me to wisdom
