A Mi Mamá

To My Mom

A Mi Mamá

(Elvira Montana)(Elvira Montana)

I have a heart that is too big and I know that many people take advantage of thatTengo un corazón demasiado grande y sé que mucha gente se aprovecha de eso
I have friends who were killed and friends who are in prison for bad stepsTengo panas que me los mataron y panas que por malos pasos están preso'
Many people who want to enjoy what's mine and were not part of the processMucha gente que quieren gozar de lo mío y no fueron parte del proceso
It's not that I'm arrogant, it's that not everyone deserves access to my lifeNo es que sea arrogante, es que de mi vida no to' el mundo merece el acceso

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyesLe prometí a mi mamá que sería grande con pila de lágrimas en los ojos
I don't sing along with anyone because the one who sings along with the lame ends up limpingNo hago coro con nadie porque termina cojeando el que hace coro con cojos
Envy and hatred are evident in their faces because they look at me sidewaysLa envidia y la para se les nota en la cara porque me miran de reojo
I have people who kill for me, I don't have to stain my hands with redTengo gente que matan por mí, no tengo que mancharme las manos de rojo

I promised my mom that I would be great with a lot of tears in my eyesLe prometí a mi mamá que sería grande con pila de lágrimas en los ojos

My mom warned me, but I didn't listen, and the next day it happened to meMi mamá me lo advirtió, pero no le hice caso, y al otro día me pasó
I shook hands with them and they cut off my arm, she always has the rightYo les di la mano y me cortaron el brazo, ella siempre tiene la razón
I learned to console myself because no one hugged me when I fellAprendí a consolarme yo misma, porque en la caída nadie me abrazó
They shot bullets of hatred and envy, but none of them hit meDispararon balas de odio y envidia, y ninguna bala me alcanzó

I am a daughter of God, but I have demons that roam my mindYo soy hija de Dios, pero tengo demonios que se pasean por mi mente
Because of those demons, I live in the past and have never enjoyed the presentPor culpa de esos demonios, vivo en el pasado y nunca he disfrutado el presente
I may look clean, but don't be fooled, I was raised in the heatMe veo limpiecita, pero no te dejes engañar, me crie en lo caliente
And even if my pencil runs out of lead, I am aware of their intentionsY aunque mi lápiz se quede sin punta, de sus intenciones, yo estoy consciente

They come for the benefit they can get from me, not for me as a personQue vienen por el beneficio que pueden sacarme, no por mi persona
They don't know the sacrifice, you are not clear on how this shit worksNo saben el sacrificio, ustedes no están claros de cómo esta mierda funciona
It's clear how insecure they are when they have to talk about me and mention meSe le nota lo inseguros que son cuando tienen que hablar de mí y me mencionan
I'm like Thor and the hammer, only I can bear the weight of this crownSoy como Thor y el martillo, na' más yo puedo cargar con el peso de esta corona

Mom, don't worry, they can't touch Elvira on the streetMami, no te preocupes, que a Elvira en la calle no le pueden poner la mano
Even if I don't say it often, you are my queen and you know I love youAunque no te lo diga mucho, tú eres mi reina y tú sabes que yo te amo
And even if you feel like I don't listen to you, I take your advice and complaints to heartY aunque tú sientas que no te escucho, me llevo de tus consejos y tus reclamos
And trust that I don't have fake friends, I only have my brothersY confía que yo no tengo panas falsos, solo me quedan mis hermanos

They have to sit down for class, a lot of people out thereTienen que sentarse pa' la clase, pila de gente por ahí
Say that I am the one, say that I am what they admire the mostDiga que yo soy la para, diga que yo soy lo que más drillean
When we started, none of us saw itCuando nosotros empezamos, nosotros no lo vimos ninguno
And they can envy the whole worldY pueden quillarse todo el mundo
