La Santisima Muerte

The Holy Death

La Santisima Muerte

Many have a corridoMuchos tienen un corrido
The good, the bad and the strongEl bueno, el malo y el fuerte
There are drug dealers and ladiesHay de narcos y de damas
And of unlucky illegalsY de ilegales sin suerte
Today I sing to the patron saintHoy le canto a la patrona
To the most holy deathA la santísima muerte

Death is everywhereLa muerte esta en todos lados
They don't want to talk about herDe ella no quieren hablar
We must not forget that we were bornNo hay que olvidar que nacimos
And one day they will bury usY un día nos van a enterrar
God gives us lifeDiosito nos da la vida
And she's not going to take them awayY ella no las va a quitar

I adore and love deathYo adoro y quiero a la muerte
And I even have an altar for himY hasta le tengo un altar
There are millions who pray to himHay millones que le rezan
The church begins to shakeLa iglesia empieza a temblar
There are already openly curesAbiertamente ya hay curas
They start praying to himQue le empiezan a rezar

Mobsters and the lawMafiosos y de la ley
They start tattooing itSe la empiezan a tatuar
Politicians and senior leadersPolíticos y altos jefes
They also have their altarTambién le tienen su altar
I light his candlesYo le prendo sus velitas
It is not a crime to prayNo es un delito rezar

To the most holy deathA la santísima muerte
Many use it for evilMuchos la usan para mal
It's good that they defend themselvesEs bueno que se defiendan
But you should never abuse itPero nunca hay que abusar
Death is very vengefulLa muerte es muy vengativa
It can start with youContigo puede empezar
