Al Borde Del Precipicio
SHARIF
On the Edge of the Precipice
Welcome to this landscape
Here you can take off your makeup
We are poets of courage with tattoos on our skin
Who board paper boats
And I know you'll think, just another rapper
Just another silly MC with his reggaeton rap
But, you'll be wrong, you'll see
Because my song is more like jazz that comes from the heart
And always, always, always
Swimming against the current
I'm not another sheep in the herd
Those who eat ears for a line in the bathroom
In this timeless limbo I live and I don't feel strange
My rap is immortal, no matter if it's the album of the year
So foolish, you can't put a price on what I write
The ink of my verses is the blood I live with
I only bless my rap on a rusty microphone
I've returned, on the back of a desperate verse
You, welcome to the nest of my sound
I pour myself into every furtive verse I write
And I keep going, standing, after so, so long
True real rap, I represent
I tell you my story, here my Zaragoza is hardcore
Honor, the real school of writing through pain
My song is to become a fiber that vibrates, not a number
That shines written on a computer
That simple, my rap is wicker
It wants to be free, free from eyes that only measure caliber
Free without a name, always free
From the invisible gods who forget about men
They are superstitions, verses and prayers
Collections of songs written in alleys
Without kings or nations, without laws of thieves
Feeling that life is slipping away from me in torrents
Yo! I'm not a master nor an apprentice
I just write verses that leave a scar
In memory, let me tell another story
Another fury, another page that knows victory
And after so much walking, I reached this precipice
And I know it's not the end but the beginning
Being my first album, I think it's fair to introduce myself
My name is Sharif the incredible, nice to meet you
