Por Estas Calles

Through These Streets

Por Estas Calles

Compassion no longer appears on these streetsPor estas calles la compasión, ya no aparece
And mercy has long since left on a tripY la piedad hace rato que, se fue de viaje
When she left, the police chased herCuando se iba la perseguía la policía
Hey conscience, you better hide with patienceOye conciencia mejor te escondes con la paciencia

There are no traces of bravery anywherePor ningún lado se encuentran rastros de valentía
Those who saw her say that she was pale and coldQuienes la vieron dicen que estaba, pálida y fría
She realized that she was alone and without companySe daba cuenta que estaba sola y sin compañía
And every time he showed his face, he was seenY cada vez que asomaba el rostro, se le veía

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía

There are so many scoundrels and criminals on these streetsPor estas calles hay tantos pillos y malhechores
And in that case, creed, race or color do not matterY en eso si que no importa credo, raza o colores
You're taking a risk if you go around saying what you thinkTú te la juegas si andas diciendo lo que tú piensas
A good man has a price on his headAl hombre bueno le ponen, precio a la cabeza

And those who wear white collars are the worstY los que andan de cuello blanco son los peores
Because in addition to burning you, they call themselves gentlemenPorque además de quemarte se hacen llamar, señores
They have very influential friends in high positionsTienen amigos en altos cargos muy influyentes
And there are some who even run for presidentY hay algunos que hasta se lanzan pa' presidente

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía

So be careful of the cornersPor eso cuídate de las esquinas
Don't get distracted when you walkNo te distraigas cuando caminas
That to take care of you I only have this life of mineQue pa' cuidarte yo solo tengo esta vida mía
