Mi Consejo (part. Rafa Espino)

My Advice (feat. Rafa Espino)

Hey
I know that sometimes it's difficult
To face life situations and feel that
Even though you have people by your side, nobody really knows you
Maybe because they only see that fraction of you that you're willing to show

And in many cases, it turns out not to be true
My friend, I know you feel lonely and sad now
Like hugging the memory of a past that doesn't exist
I made this song for you, for the times you fell
You got up, healed, looked at yourself, and didn't see yourself

Don't believe the concept they sell of being happy
Not everything is black and white, use your gray matter
There are people that when you lose them you'll think: Better this way
But there are others that when you lose them, you'll lose part of yourself

I remember being a child and building sandcastles
Everything seemed giant compared to my fingertips
But as you grow, the dilemma reverses
And everything seems small, everything, except the problems

You might think I'm great because of how I write
But in crucial moments, I never knew what to say
That's why I'm here dissecting my déjà-vu
Because to be inseparable, I had to scratch myself on you

Stick with people who want to float your puddles
Because on a calm sea, anyone can get on the boat
Say things to the face, without fear of going blank
Because even thinking of nothing, we're already thinking of something

Why do we complicate ourselves with the simplest things?
If there are words that are said with a kiss on the cheek
Don't try to touch fire with butter hands
What's the point of having guts if you don't flip the omelette? (If you don't flip the omelette)

When the rain of bullets pierces your skin
When they break your wings and you can't fly far
When all eyes look for some complex in you
When you break the face of the stranger in the mirror
When every morning an old bird dies
And you close the windows to the brightness of your reflection
When the mouths you loved break you with a: I'm leaving

I just ask you to let yourself be guided by my advice
I came to tell you that you decide your fate
What you have is worth more than what you lack
Don't seek to fall in love without loving yourself
Some love those who left and not those who chose to stay

Never let them tell you what you deserve
Because loving is more than swearing they do
I learned to jump with fear, but sometimes
The simpler you want, the harder it is to forget

Because every solution has a problem
I counted on my fingers the friends I have left
Thumbs up is a sign that things are going well
And nullifying the heart messed up the whole equation

Listen out there, time will be your guide
You'll see if you accelerate or brake without paying attention
Life is a bonfire, you either stoke it or cool it
And the fire is in the eyes of the dreamer who takes that step

So don't lie to yourself and react
Happiness is wanting to kiss your wounds
Seeing someone fight alongside their fears excites me
And hearing someone accept themselves as they are inspires me
My advice is that you don't need one

And you take care of self-love more than your networks
Present your past to your future
And be proud of the person you are
Because you can, because you must

When the rain of bullets pierces your skin
When they break your wings and you can't fly far
When all eyes look for some complex in you
When you break the face of the stranger in the mirror
When every morning an old bird dies
And you close the windows to the brightness of your reflection
When the mouths you loved break you with a: I'm leaving

I just ask you to let yourself be guided by my advice
When the rain of bullets pierces your skin
When they break your wings and you can't fly far
When all eyes look for some complex in you
When you break the face of the stranger in the mirror
When every morning an old bird dies
And you close the windows to the brightness of your reflection
When the mouths you loved break you with a: I'm leaving

I just ask you to let yourself be guided by my advice
