Nuestros Días

What is the life
That each of us deserves in our days
Through my eyes, I've seen it, it won't be forgotten,
Only my other half remains in memory, my other half

And it's the reality,
Too many hits, but there's no pity
Trying to see things clearly
And learn from mistakes without condemning and forgiving

With my own eyes, I've seen it,
Yeah, my gaze pierces through them
I watch people running, escaping.
I had a problem and no one helped me.

Some for love and others for hate
Some are chillin' and others are stressed
Little reality and a thousand episodes,
Jumping between happiness and phobia

I've seen how I lost and nothing was left,
A hole in my door from a bullet
That the neighbors fired when they were at war,
A line on the ground to see who would pass

If it seems like everything is ending,
There are days when you pay for everything
They walked on, the street doesn't swallow
And the brown battle breaks out, just like that

San Blas, the war didn't end,
Horse, helicopter, they surrounded us
Drug control, who was in charge?
If there was no money, they wouldn't let you go
I stopped believing in those I trusted,
You learn from everything, even how to lose
One day the water's up to your neck, another day it's at your feet,
You believe me? Yes? Yes? What do you say!

Stay alert
To who lies to you, who sells you, who tempts you,
Who ignores you, who misleads your mind,
Who approaches you showing their teeth
To whom represents you, defend,
If they do something for you, return the favor,
Don't be a rat that ducks and hides,
If your ego gets the best of you, you don't even know where to go!

What is the life
That each of us deserves in our days
Through my eyes, I've seen it, it won't be forgotten,
Only my other half remains in memory, my other half

And it's the reality,
Too many hits, but there's no pity
Trying to see things clearly
And learn from mistakes without condemning and forgiving

I've seen people eat scraps
I've seen poor kids with vices
I've been sitting at baptisms and trials
Rich people who have no principles
People looking down their noses
Keep looking, I won't hide
I've been up and I've hit rock bottom
I've gotten up and now I respond
To people who give! Who throw at you!
People who lie! People who stare at you
For being different, all my life!
People who don't even know what motivates them
I trusted and it didn't do me any good
I've seen men betray their friends
But I know where I stand,
Hit the street and see it, if you don't believe me

What is the life
That each of us deserves in our days
Through my eyes, I've seen it, it won't be forgotten,
Only my other half remains in memory, my other half

And it's the reality,
Too many hits, but there's no pity
Trying to see things clearly
And learn from mistakes without condemning and forgiving
