Que Siga La Mata Dando

Let the Weed Keep Going

Que Siga La Mata Dando

While the plants keep on giving alwaysMientras las matas siguen siempre dando
Many of you are restingMuchos de ustedes están descansando
I navigate it always everywhereMe la navego siempre pa' todos lados
But one thing, I never look downPero eso sí, jamás miro pa' abajo
Years go by, time runningPasan los años, tiempos correteando
I remember yesterday hanging out with the guysRecuerdo ayer loqueando con los vatos
We were happy, we didn't noticeÉramos felices, no lo miramos
But no way to stay silentPero ni modo de quedar callados

Thinking about how people have changedPensando en cómo la gente ha cambiado
Yesterday we were seven, today only fourAyer éramos siete, hoy solo cuatro
While time goes by passing byMientras el tiempo va y va bien pasando
You look in the mirror and wow, there are changesTe miras al espejo y vaya, hay cambios
You will meet people anywayConocerás gente de todos modos
Some criticize, but they are born deafUnos critican, pero nacen sordos
Some admire you for all your achievementsUnos te admiran por todos tus logros
And believe me, there are very few of thoseY créanme que de esos ya hay muy pocos

The corrido says it well: I haven't changedBien dice el corrido: Yo no he cambiado
The few of us are still intactLos pocos que era seguimos intactos
For those friends everything has happenedPa' esos amigos de todo ha pasado
Only memories keep passing bySolo los recuerdos siguen pasando
A green blunt we start rollingUn blunt del verde nos vamos rolando
The real ones won't deny itLos verdaderos no van a negarlo
A bitter drink with a tight chestUn trago amargo al pecho apretado
And let's toast to those who have been forgottenY brindemos por los que se olvidaron

They say the plants keep on givingDicen que las matas se siguen dando
And even if you don't believe it, look, look closely, manY aunque no creas, mira, mira bien, vato
There are ordinary people everywhereHay gente corriente por todos lados
You have to watch out for the most fakeTienes que cuidarte de los más falsos
Today I toast because the past has diedHoy brindo porque ya murió el pasado
And in the future, I don't know if we'll continueY en el futuro no sé pa sigamos
If I learned something, it's that true friends are fewSi algo aprendí, es que hay amigos contados
And as long as the weed keeps goingY siempre que siga la mata dando
