While You Where Looking At Me

Mientras Tú Me Mirabas

While You Where Looking At Me

Mientras tú me mirabasWhile you were looking at me
El mundo te pasaba de largoThe world passed you by
Mantenías tus prejuicios sagradosYou held your prejudice sacred
Y dejabas tus sueños atrásAnd left your dreams behind

Mientras tú me mirabasWhile you were looking at me
Los sin techo se quedaban en las callesThe homeless stayed in the streets
Aprendiste a beber agua envenenadaYou learned to drink poisoned water
Pero nunca aprendiste a leerBut never learned how to read

Es fácil echarle la culpa a alguien másWell it's easy to put the blame on someone else
Pero es difícil verte a ti mismoBut it's hard to see yourself
¿Alguna vez te has mirado bien a ti mismo?Did you ever take a good look at yourself?

Mientras tú me mirabasWhile you were looking at me
La seguridad del aeropuerto murióAirport security died
Y los contrabandistas y terroristasAnd the smugglers and the terrorists
Pasaban de largoJust walked right by

Porque no se visten como yo'cause they don't dress like me
Se visten como túThey dress like you
Usan trajes y corbatasThey wear suits and ties
Como todos ustedes hipócritas hacenLike all you hypocrites do

Es fácil señalar con el dedo a alguien másWell it's easy to point your finger at someone else
Pero es difícil verte a ti mismoBut it's hard to see yourself
¿No es difícil mirarte bien a ti mismo?Ain't it hard to take a good look at yourself?

Mientras tú me mirabasWhile you were looking at me
Los hombres de negocios te desangrabanBusinessmen bled you dry
Perdiste el control de tu gobiernoYou lost control of your government
¡Está dando miedo afuera!It's getting scary outside!

Mientras tú me mirabasWhile you were looking at me
Tus hijos se estrellabanYour children took the fall
Intentando ser mamá y papáTrying to be mommy and daddy
Con drogas y alcoholWith dope and alcohol

Censuras a personas como yoYou censor people like me
Pero no te servirá de nadaBut it won't do you no good
La verdad se abrirá pasoThe truth's gonna get through
Sin importar lo que hagasNo matter what you do

Mientras tú me mirabas...While you were looking at me...
