En Donde Mierda Estamos

Where the Hell Are We

En Donde Mierda Estamos

Cousins and I hang outPrimos y yo parchamos
Kids play breaking moons with spark plugsNiños juegan a romper lunas con bujías
Near Angamos AvenueCerca ala avenida angamos
Where the hell are weEn donde mierda estamos
If you have almost grams in your brainSi tu tienes casi gramos en los sesos
If on Sundays you have plenty of cheesesSi acaso los domingos te sobran los quesos
Almost no one comes out unscathedYa casi nadie resulta ileso
Drug addicts to the boneDrogadictos asta el hueso
One or another paying with years in prisonUno q otro pagando cn años d preso
What happened with thatQ paso con eso que
As a child I focusedDe pequeño io me enfoque
I didn't make a mistakeNo me equivoke
If I just wanted to give it a few hitsSi kise tan solo darle algunos tokes
Step firmly and never get lostPisa firme y nunk t alokes
They said those who truly cared for meDecian los q me querian en verdad
Those who seriously offered me friendshipLos q nserio me brindaron amistad
Almost half is lostCasi la mitad esta perdida
But I know they love me as I love themPero se que me kieren como los quiero
They know who I meanSaben a kien me refiero
To those who grew up with me in the neighborhoodA los q conmigo crecieron en el barrio
We played Mario, we never lacked the essentialsJugabamos mario nunk nos falto lo necesario
Now I'm on stages and in scenariosAhora yo en esterios y en los escenarios
I'm among the several who shoot serious paragraphsVoi entre los varios q disparan parrafos serios
The only thing that remains intactLo unico q se conserva intacto
After 10 calendarsDespués de 10 calendarios
Is like the light in cemeteriesEs como la lus en cementerios
And now in SurquilloY esq ahora en surquillo
There are more knives than kidsAi mas cuchillos q chikillos
They cut you for a simple thingTe cortan por un sencillo
They just want moneyTan solo kieren bolsillo
Typical attitude of the gangTipica actitud del palomilla
Who wants to pull triggersQ kiere jalar gatillos
Desires that unload scribblesGanas q descargan escribillos
That's how I learnedAsi aprendi yo
Walking with gangsCamino con pandillas
Of old men and liceDe viejos y ladillas
Careful they steal your sneakersSuave que te desfalcan tus zapatillas

[Pedro Mo][pedro mo]

The city shoots you downLa ciudad te acribilla
Lives among bars and sewer ratsVive entre barrotes y ratas de alcantarilla
Moments of tension that are rakedRatos de tension q se rastrillan
Ideas that hammer the head are tamedIdeas q martillan la cabeza se mansilla
With so much idiocy around meCon tanta idiotes q me rodea
I feel more bitter as the years go byMe noto mas amargo cn el pasar d los años
Faces disappear in my surroundingsDesaparecen rostros en mi entorno
An eternal passenger feeling of lossUn eterno pasajero sentimiento de extravio
I miss the simplicity of being a childExtraño lo sencillo de ser niño
Although being a child hurt meAunq ser niño m iso daño
Scars in the essenceCicatrises en la escensia
Are tumors in karmaSon tumores en el carma
That deforms the appearance of what would be my soulQ malforma la apariencia d lo q seria mi alma
In the future time different from what it is nowEn el tiempo futuro distinto a lo q es ahora
Traces of the past that emerge among dense smokeVestigios del pasado q entre humo denso aflora
The movie is erased from meSe me borra la pelicula
I can't locate myself because the pupils changeNo m ubico porq cambian las pupilas
Like infection spotsComo focos de infeccion
Atrophied brains turned into ornamentsCerebros atrofiados convertidos en adornos
Orthodox of businessOrtodoxos d negocios
Of the vices of idlenessD los vicios d los osios
Kids who forgot to be curious visionariesChibolos q olvidaron ser visionarios curiosos
They no longer play on the fieldYa no juegan en la cancha
They paint it when they hang outLa pintan cuando se parchan
And in a group they leaveY en mancha se marchan
Girls now understandLas niñas ahora cachan
They inject and bowSe pinchan y agachan
Their faces for the purple spotsLa cara por las manchas moradas
That mark themQ las tachan
Give birthDan a luz
Faces with a grimaceCaras con caracha
Where the hell is childhood surrounded by cockroachesDonde chucha esta la infancia rodeada d cucarachas
