El Mismo de Ayer

The Same as Yesterday

El Mismo de Ayer

It's not that I like being aloneNo es que me guste estar solo
It's just that I feel better this wayEs que así me siento mejor
That way, the betrayal from those who talk about me doesn't hurtAsí no duele la traición de los que hablan de mí
Who say they're my friendsQue dicen que son mis amigos
That's why I keep to myselfPor eso es que solo sigo
Because I only trust myselfPorque solo en mí confío
But I'd give my life for my peoplePero doy la vida por los míos

And even if they think they know meY aunque ellos crean que me conocen
They're gonna say that I've changedTe van a decir que cambié
That I'm not the same as yesterdayQue no soy el mismo de ayer
But that's not truePero eso no es verdad
It's just that they think they know meSolo es que ellos creen que me conocen
And they're gonna say that I've changedY van a decir que cambié
That I'm not the same as yesterdayQue no soy el mismo de ayer
But that's not truePero eso no es verdad
It's just that I'm tiredSolo que me cansé

Of those who say they support me but it's not realDe los que dicen que me apoyan pero no es real
Because now I don't have fame, let alone cashPorque ahora no tengo fama mucho menos rial
Surely when I make it big, they'll call meSeguramente cuando pegue me van a llamar
And even if they say I've changed, I'll respondY aunque digan que cambie les voy a contestar
Because that's just how I am, it comes naturallyPorque soy así a mí me sale natural
I thank God for putting me in my placeDoy gracias a Dios por ponerme en mi lugar
What the haters say doesn't make me doubtLo que diga los hater no me hacen dudar
I'll stay true to what I have, they can suck itYo seré fiel a lo que tengo, lo pueden mamar

I've tried to leave all this behindHe tratado de dejar todo esto
But the truth is, that's just not mePero la verdad es que eso a mí no me sale
A lot of people say they support meMucha gente dice que me apoya
But it's not from the heart and it doesn't mean a thingPero no es de cora y para nada vale
Those who take my stuff as a jokeLos que toman de juego lo mío

Better go find your blanketsVayan buscando ya sus macundales
To keep you warm when you're freezingQue te den calor cuando mueres de frío
That's what defines who’s realEs lo que define a los que son reales
I love to flow over instrumentalsMe encanta fluir sobre instrumentales

The haters want me to stopLos mochadores quieren que no siga
But there are several voices telling me to keep goingPero hay varias voces que me dicen dale
Keep going, my soul gets inspired and my heart burstsDale, se inspira mi alma y mi cora se sale
It's time for them to know me, I'll always be the sameEs hora de queme conozcan siempre seré el mismo
For my idealsPor mis ideales

And even if they think they know meY aunque ellos crean que me conocen
They're gonna say that I've changedTe van a decir que cambié
That I'm not the same as yesterdayQue no soy el mismo de ayer
But that's not truePero eso no es verdad
It's just that they think they know meSolo es que ellos creen que me conocen
And they're gonna say that I've changedY van a decir que cambié
That I'm not the same as yesterdayQue no soy el mismo de ayer
But that's not truePero eso no es verdad
It's just that I'm tiredSolo que me cansé

I must admit that sometimes you have to loseDebo reconocer que veces toca perder
This case won't be one of themEste el caso no va a ser
And that will soon be seenY eso ya estará por verse
I have many reasons to be strongTengo muchas cosas por las que ser fuerte

If you're listening, I promise thatSi estás escuchando voy a prometer que
If you're with me, we'll meet at the topSi estás conmigo nos vemos en la cima
I'm ready to tear up the stageAndo preparado pa romper tarima
I need to have more consistency and more disciplineDebo tener más constancia y más disciplina

Let me warn you, this isn't overDe una les advierto que esto no termina
It's not that I like being aloneNo es que me guste estar solo
It's just that I feel better this wayEs que así me siento mejor
That way, the betrayal from those who talk about me doesn't hurtAsí no duele la traición de los que hablan de mí

Who say they're my friendsQue dicen que son mis amigos
That's why I keep to myselfPor eso es que solo sigo
Because I only trust myselfPorque solo en mí confío
But I'd give my life for my peoplePero doy la vida por los míos
