Mi Razón

I didn't have it all, but I gave it to you
Every penny, every sleepless night
Your laughter paid for what I couldn't afford
And your hug was the light I didn't have

I kept my dreams in a drawer
So you could live them without restriction
I pretended to be strong when I couldn't
And cried in silence in case you saw me

For you, I gave everything without a doubt
I walked without strength, learned to fly
If I fell, it was thinking of you
Not losing faith in what you could achieve

For you
I bent my pride and the pain
I was father, mother, rock, and warmth
There's no prize, no greater trophy
Than seeing you grow and knowing
That I am your love

I didn't count how hard it was to get here
Nor the times I wanted to escape
But your voice said: I love you, mom
And that was enough to keep going and fight

I traded shoes to pay for your coat
Ate less, but you slept with me
And even if the world doesn't value what I did
I know one day you'll understand why I wanted it

For you
I gave everything without a doubt
I walked without strength, learned to fly
If I fell, it was thinking of you

Not knowing what it is
To lose faith in the light
I bent my pride and the pain
I was father, mother, rock, and warmth

There's no prize, no greater trophy
Than seeing you grow and knowing
That I am your love

And if one day you don't see me
Look to the sky, I'll be there
Watching over you like always
Like someone who truly does

For you
I was everything I dreamed of
Even if the world can't see it
Your smile was my salvation

And your life, my song
