Mi Sangre Prisionera

My Imprisoned Blood

Mi Sangre Prisionera

I felt like my soul was exploding into a thousand piecesSentí que el alma me explotaba en mil pedazos
I opened my arms to be able to hug himAbrí los brazos para poderlo abrazar
I saw him so cute playing in my lapLo vi tan lindo jugueteando en mi regazo
I felt like the tears were starting to betray meSentí que el llanto me empezaba a traicionar
Behind bars, he looked at me affectionatelyTras de las rejas, me miraba con cariño
He was no longer a child, he was a full-on criminalYa no era un niño, era todo un criminal

I lost my life tangled up in businessPerdí la vida enredado en los negocios
My partners were madness and ambitionFueron mis socios, la locura y la ambición
I didn't have time to play with him a littleNo tuve tiempo de jugar con él un poco
Or to nurture his heart with loveNi cultivarle con amor su corazón
They raised him on the streets little by littleMe lo educaron por las calles poco a poco
They handed him over with a prison diplomaMe lo entregaron con diploma de prisión

How I wish I could turn back fifteen yearsCómo quisiera regresarlo quince años
And that his cell could collapse on himY que su celda, le pudiera derrumbar
How it hurts me to see my blood imprisonedCómo me duele ver mi sangre prisionera
Like a beast, walking through the prisonComo una fiera, caminar por el penal
I feel in my soul the reproaches of his motherSiento en el alma los reproches de su madre
He's not guilty and I'm the criminalÉl no es culpable y yo soy el criminal

(Where has my child gone?(¿Dónde ha quedado mi niño?
When he asked me for affectionCuando me pidió cariño
I didn't open my heart to himNo le abrí mi corazón
I never took him to schoolNunca lo llevé a la escuela
I rarely rocked him in my armsPoco lo arrullé en mis brazos
I didn't even give him a hug on his graduation dayTampoco le di el abrazo el día de su graduación
I made money my godHice mi Dios del dinero
And the son I love so much, I turned into a prison beastY al hijo que tanto quiero, lo hice fiera de prisión
What good was the money to me?¿De qué me sirvió el dinero?
If I ended up a beggarSi termine limosnero
Begging for compassion for my son)Mendigando por mi hijo, compasión)

How I wish I could turn back fifteen yearsCómo quisiera regresarlo quince años
And that his cell could collapse on himY que su celda, le pudiera derrumbar
How it hurts me to see my blood imprisonedCómo me duele ver mi sangre prisionera
Like a beast, walking through the prisonComo una fiera caminar por el penal
I feel in my soul the reproaches of his motherSiento en el alma los reproches de su madre
He's not guilty and I'm the criminalÉl no es culpable y yo soy el criminal
