That's why I learned slowlyPor eso aprendí despacio
Not to give myself without measureA no darme sin medida
To set firm limitsA poner limites firmes
To protect what little life I have leftPara cuidar lo que me queda de vida
To keep being humanSeguir siendo humano

Because kindness without bordersPorque la bondad sin fronteras
Ends up causing problemsTermina hecha problemas

They ask for a better worldPiden un mundo mejor

When every clean gestureCuando cada gesto limpio
Is turned into a social disadvantageLo convierten en desventaja social
