Mal Truco

Bad Trick

Mal Truco

Because one day he told mePorque un día me dijo
You have what no one else has to shineTienes lo que nadie pa' brillar
But he didn't predictPero no predijo
That when that day arrived, he wouldn't be there anymoreQue llegando aquel ya no iba a estar

And if someone knowsY es que si alguien sabe
How much it hurts to lose a friendLo que duele perder un amigo
Someone I truly lovedAlguien que en verdad amé
In these times, it's the worst punishmentEn estos tiempos es el peor castigo

He doesn't want to talk anymore, doesn't look at the phoneYa no quiere hablar, no mira el celular
If we ever meet again, I know it won't be the sameSi algún día nos vemos, yo sé que no será igual
It was vital to me, it's a mortal woundPa' mí era vital, es una herida mortal
May God take care of you and keep you away from evilQue Dios te cuide y te aleje del mal

Constant struggle, who is real and who is notLucha constante, quién y quién es real
In an instant, defining good or evilEn un instante definir el bien o el mal
The echo of my voice in outer spaceEl eco de mi voz en el espacio sideral
I occupy a literal spaceYo ocupo de un espacio literal

I don't want to be here anymore, the ship needs to be unanchoredYo ya no quiero estar, el barco hay que desanclar
Because no matter how rough the sea is, we must keep rowingPorque por más duro el mar no hay que parar de remar
To only look out for yourself is not self-love, it's selfishnessVer solo por ti no es quererse, es egoísmo
And that's not loving, it's killing oneselfY eso no es amarse, es matarse así mismo

I know the mechanism and that's why I don't look for youConozco el mecanismo y por eso es que no te busco
If they tell the story wrong, I always look like the bad oneSi cuentan mal la historia, como el malo siempre luzco
In the hallway of a hotel, I walk away from that expired loveEn el pasillo de un hotel me alejo de ese amor caduco
One day we were magic, but today we are a bad trickUn día fuimos magia, pero hoy somos un mal truco

The gears no longer workYa no funcionan los engranes
Don't tell anyone your plans for everything to work outPa' que todo resulte a nadie le cuentes tus planes
Clean your wounds, go back to war when you healLimpia tus heridas, vuelve a guerrear cuando sanes
And remember your loved ones when you winY acuérdate de los tuyos cuando ganes

Because one day he told mePorque un día me dijo
You have what no one else has to shineTienes lo que nadie pa' brillar
But he didn't predictPero no predijo
That when that day arrived, he wouldn't be there anymoreQue llegando aquel ya no iba a estar

And if someone knowsY es que si alguien sabe
How much it hurts to lose a friendLo que duele perder un amigo
Someone I truly lovedAlguien que en verdad amé
In these times, it's the worst punishmentEn estos tiempos es el peor castigo

He doesn't want to talk anymore, doesn't look at the phoneYa no quiere hablar, no mira el celular

With loves and friendships, in the end, I always crashCon amores y amistades, al final siempre me estrello
My crew is forever, I got it tattooed on my neckMi clica es para siempre, yo me la rayé en el cuello
After my mother, that love is the most beautifulDespués de mi madre, ese amor es lo más bello

I remember thinking that what we had was infallibleRecuerdo que pensaba que lo nuestro era infalible
Our friendship love became indestructibleNuestro amor de amigos llegó a ser indestructible
Nothing lasts forever, that's indisputableNada es para siempre, eso es indiscutible
People are replaced, but they are not repeatableLas persona' se reemplazan, pero no son repetibles

Maybe I won't see you againTal vez no te vuelva a ver
Maybe it will never be the sameTal vez nunca vuelva a ser
What you and I were and you may not recognize meLo que tú y yo fuimos y me llegues a desconocer
There on the street when I return to our neighborhoodAhí por la calle cuando vuelva a nuestro barrio
After stepping on everyone, I can't imagine that scenarioDespués de pisar todos, no imagino ese escenario

And I miss you, the feeling stabs meY te extraño, el sentimiento me acuchilla
If today I have what I have, it's because I am your seedSi hoy tengo lo que tengo es porque yo soy tu semilla
