Te Tienes a Ti

You Have Yourself

When you barely find reasons
Or you must forget him quickly
When nobody kisses your fears
But everyone drinks from your laughter

When you have no more options
Because fear returns and steps on you
When you miss him and cry
And long for his warmth as a premise

When nobody values how much you're worth
And you stay silent out of fear of rejection
When you know they never understand you
And your luck lives far from your arms

When he no longer writes to you forever
And loving is a constant failure
When everyone judges and lies to you
And the present returns to cut off your steps

When you think none of this will change
And you feel left aside
That the dreams you have won't come true
Time has lagged behind

And although you'll have to fight
And let go of the past
This is not over
Because despite the bad

You have yourself
To get up and move forward
It doesn't matter who leaves or tries to stop you
They tried to hurt you and made you stronger

Stop and take care of those who care for you
There will always be a way out from those people
Who offer nothing but lies
They love you and forget you, a memory, a wound

A blank page waiting for you to live
You have yourself
To show that they won't knock down
Those who don't see the option to give up
Sometimes it hurts more to stay

For fear of saying goodbye
I've learned that trusting others too much
Will end up hurting me in the end
If you suffered, resist
They're just lessons, you never lost

And today I have myself
And even though no one believed in what I said
I kept pushing forward
For my people, my parents, my sister

And those who watch over me from heaven
For those who said I couldn't
And see that I never back down
Without fear of dreaming it, I prefer to try

Avoiding those who want to see me on the ground
And of course, I suffered
What the hell do they know about my life
Judging without measure and me so different

Raising the skin with my rhyme
A love among ruins only in my mind
Writing an escape that no one understands
My universe, my verse, my strength

Working for the podium and saying goodbye
To those who didn't stay and served as motivation
Because even when everything goes wrong
You have yourself (you have yourself)
You have yourself
There's nothing more important than believing we're capable
Of overcoming whatever comes our way

Find in yourself the strength to do it
The rest only complements it
So remember
You have yourself (you have yourself)
