Oh-oh-oh-oh-ohOh-oh-oh-oh-oh

This is how I learned, and this is how I've grownAsí es como aprendí, y así es como he crecío
And I learned to trust my mother's adviceY aprendí que de consejo' de mi madre si me fio
Mom, please don't open the door to the policeMamá, por favor, no abra' puerta a policía
She wouldn't open it, because she was a police stationElla no la abría, porque era comisaría
That the friendly hand is not the one to trustQue la mano amiga, no es la que se fía

And not to spit on the hand that feeds youY que no se escupe en la mano que da comida
Growing up, and seeing the hustleAl tiempo creciendo, y viendo movida'
Some for their lives, would take away your whole lifeAlguno' por su vida, te quitarían to'a tu vida

Look without thinking, the bad things I neglectedMira sin pensarlo, lo malo me descuido
I never forget that someone helped meYo nunca me olvido de que alguno me ayudó
I am happy having many, but few friendsSoy feliz teniendo mucho', que pocos amigos
I always remain the same with those who didn't turn awaySigo siempre siendo el mismo con en el que no se viró

Friends were two, then they were fourAmigos eran dos, al tiempo eran cuatro
After a while it was a group and they wanted to take away the deviceAl rato era un grupo y quisieron quita' aparato
Envy grew when your treatment improvedLa envidia sí creció, cuando crece tu trato
It becomes very expensive when they take away the cheapTe sale ya muy caro cuando quitan lo barato

I don't say it to sound niceQue yo no lo digo para que suene bonito
Envy is a problem, and a problem is a crimeLa envidia es problema, y el problema un delito
I can't let myself, if I don't take from anyoneQue yo no puedo dejarme, si a nadie le quito
No one will ever take away even a little from meNadie va a quitarme nunca ni un numerito

And see if it was long, how long the road isY mira si era largo, qué largo es el camino
Everyone talks and no one changes fateQue todo el mundo habla y nadie cambia el destino

I taught music and didn't talk about cokeMúsica yo enseñaba y no hablaba de coca
And those who listened went crazyY la que la escuchaba se volvía loca

Before, I didn't have any bikesAnte' pa' las bici' no tenía ni poca
Now kids pay for everything on the steering wheelAhora en los volante' niño' pagan todo a toca
They used to say I was crazyDeteni'o me decían que yo era un masoca
Now they stop me, their mouths dropAhora me paran, se le abre la boca

Even if they say to stop, I swear I won't stopAu—, Aunque digan que pare, te juro no pararé
If my mother smiles, then I'll keep going hereSi mi madre sonríe entonce' aquí yo seguiré
If you hear something bad, I'll laugh tomorrowSi oyes algo malo, mañana reiré
If I get arrested, I won't ask anyoneSi caigo preso, a nadie le pediré

I don't know what's happening, or what will happen tomorrowQue no sé lo que pasa, ni mañana pasará

I don't talk about nerves, I don't know about anxietyEn nervio' no lo hablo, no sé de ansieda'
I don't tell anyone why it's not worth itA nadie yo le cuento porqué no vale na'

Over time, I saw that everything was evilAl tiempo vi que todo era malda'
The hand that gives, doesn't even take backLa mano que se da, ni siquiera ya se quita
Over time, I saw that everything was evilAl tiempo vi que todo era malda'
Life alone, life is more beautifulLa vida solo, la vida más bonita

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I don't ask anyone even if I needOh-oh-oh-oh-oh, no le pido a nadie aunque necesite
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, the one who speaks badly, then criticizes youOh-oh-oh-oh-oh, el que habla malo, luego te critica
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, in life all the bad resistsOh-oh-oh-oh-oh, en la vida todo lo malo resiste
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, but all the good avoids itOh-oh-oh-oh-oh, pero lo bueno todo eso lo evita

No—, no—, it's not that serious, I was acting foolishNo—, no—, no es pa' tanto, hacía el tonto
I was in the street but everything is slowEstaba en la calle pero todo es lento
Feelings and momentsSentimiento' y momento'
Mom used to say that I don't want troubleMama le decía que no quiero centro

It's not that serious, it's not that seriousNo es pa' tanto, no es pa' tanto
I look to the sky, I fly with the windMiro para el cielo, vuelo con el viento
It's not a tale, I never lieNo es un cuento, nunca miento
Daily problems but I'm happyProblema' diario pero estoy contento
