ChorusEstribillo
These are memories of a kid, find us in the streetsSon recuerdos de chico buscadnos en las calles
Like the coke, the weedComo el jaco el perico
I also have my crew, my gang, my militiaYo también tengo mi click mi clicka mi militia
The vibe is like this, melancholic versesEl rollo así está versos melancólicos
For alcoholics at the parties. (x2)Para alcohólicos en las fiestas. (x2)

I arrived from Brussels, eight years I spent thereLlegué de bruselas ocho años estuve alli
The rest I spent it hereEl resto lo pase ya aqui
There the snowballs were giant for a kidAlli las bolas de nieve eran gigantes para un niño
There in Uccle, in my class, they were all dark-skinned, let me speakAlli en uccle en mi clase eran todos morillos dejad que hable
Rue Emille Ferron, Spiegel Saint Gilles schoolRue emille ferron colegio spiegel saint gilles
My childhood was far from hereMi infancia fue lejos de aqui
Looking at the school report, the year seventy-nineMirando el boletin del colegio el año setenta y nueve
Class grades, the balance of the third quarterNotas de la clase el bilan del tercer trimestre
He is very active in rhythm but also very disobedientIl est tres actif a la rithmique mais ausi tres desobeissant

They said: damn, he doesn't really like the workIls disaient: putain le travaille il ne l'aime pas trop
At that time, I was just a kidEn aquel tiempo yo esque era un tapon
Eleven car trips, two and a half days eachOnce viajes en coche dos dias y medio cada uno
Awake watching the change in climateEn vela viendo el cambio de clima
You can't imagine how hard it hitNo veas como pegaba encima
Using twenty creamsUsando veinte cremas
From a city of big cinemas to tapas barsDe ciudad de grandes cines a bares de tapas
Incredible juices, the fence without gas, cannedIncreible los zumos la verja sin gas envasados en lata
Thank you very much for the heat and the waterMuchas gracias por el calor y el agua
Thanks for the slang that's unleashed hereGracias por la jerga que aqui se desata
Today I own entire citiesHoy soy dueño de ciudades enteras
My style crosses bordersMi estilo cruza fronteras
On the mic today I defeat anyoneEn el micro hoy le venzo a cualquiera
Who would have thought, as a kidQuien me iba a mi a decir de chico
That I would end up being your downfallQue iba a acabar siendo vuestra quiebra
Impossible to catch, impossible to intimidateImposible atrapar, imposible achantar
It shows when I sing that I can't be reachedSe me nota al cantar que no se me puede alcanzar
Today they really like the tracks from Hablando en Plata, your crewHoy gustan mucho los tracks de hablando en plata tu squad
We did it our way and we are the unique survivors from the southLo hicimos a nuestra forma y somos unicos supervivientes del sur

As a kid, they didn't let me do what I wantedDe chico no me dejaban hacer lo que queria
The teachers had it out for meMe tenian mania los maestros
Your parents didn't let you hang out with meVuestros padres no os dejaban que os juntarais conmigo
Because it wasn't normal for a kid to have that unnatural behaviorPorque no era normal que un crio tuviera ese conportamiento antinatural
I didn't like school, during recess I drewNo me gustaba el cole en el recreo dibujaba
While you played with stickers and soccer, I didn't like themMientras vosotros jugabais a las estampas y al futbol a mi no me gustaban
Now my friends are still the pencils, the spray cans, markersAhora mis amigos siguen siendo los lapices, los aerosoles, rotuladores
Miguelito breaks windows, polishes coffinsMiguelito rompe cristales, abrillanto ataudes
I absorb your virtuesAbsorvo tus virtudes
My teachers are the citiesMis profesores son las ciudades
Sunsets, sunrises in the streetsAnocheceres, amaneceres en las calles
You couldn't educate me, rap couldn't leave meNo conseguisteis educarme el rap no pudo abandonarme
Time couldn't stiffen meEl tiempo no logro acartonarme
I can contain myself but I don't want to, I never wanted to contain myself with peoplePuedo contenerme pero no quiero nunca quise contenerme con la gente
Leave me alone, I belong to another kind of beingsDejadme en paz pertenezco a otra clase de seres
I have musical orgies with beats and vocalsHago orgias musicales con bases y vocales

As a kid, I thought everything would be this beautifulDe chico pensaba que todo iba a ser asi de bonito
All damn day in the damn street with the twenty bucksTodo el puto dia en la puta calle con los veinte duritos
In my pocket that my mother gave meEn el bolsillo que me daba mi madre
So I wouldn't lack anythingPara que no me faltase nada
Not the chips, the gummy worms, the candies from Juan's kioskNi los chimos, los gusanitos, los tico tico del kiosquillo de juan
Those memories are incredible, you know, and no one will take them from meEsos recuerdos son increibles sabes y nadie me lo va a quitar
Now I believe and see that life wasn't that beautifulAhora creo y veo que la vida no era tan bonita
Nowadays you have to be alert to everythingHoy en dia hay que estar atento a todo
That backstabbing hurts a lotQue duelen mucho las puñaladas por la espalda
I propose to bleed out your hope if necessaryMe propongo a sangrarte la esperanza si hace falta
To hate you if you hate me and to love you to deathA odiarte si me odias y amarte hasta la muerte
No masks allowedSin mascaras que valgan
Everything on the table and the cards face upTodo sobre la mesa y bocarriba las cartas
I am made of history, tired of going around in circles in this lifeQue estoy compuesto de historia harto de da vueltas en esta vida
My fury piles up and my karma is about to explodeMi furia se amontona y mi carma esta apunto de estallar
I'm going to blow up the whole scene with my graceVoy a reventar todo el percal con mi gracia
I'm accompanied on this mission by my boys from the big cityMe acompañan en esta mision mis chavales de la gran ciudad
Even if they kill me out of envy, out of greedVaya que me maten por la envidia por la gula
I infect with the seven deadly sinsQue infecto con los siete pecados capitales
Like Rafael Fernandez and Miguel Angel SolerComo rafael fernandez y miguel angel soler
I'm not 2pac, the only ones who will cry will be the angelsQue no soy 2pac los unicos que lloraran seran los angeles
The devil will want to have me under his ordersEl diablo querra tenerme bajo sus ordenes
But this old dog will keep rapping in the afterlifePero aqui el perro viejo seguira haciendo rap en el mas alla
I'll be indestructible, I'll be immortal, immortal.Seré incombustible sere inmortal, inmortal.
