Los Oidos Cambian (Interlude)

Hey, hey, hey, stop, stop, stop that, stop that
This is intense
You see what I’m saying?
Songs like this, that contribute

Stop, stop, stop, stop
What do you mean they contribute?

Are themes like these necessary, you get me?
The streets, the release, the emotion
That’s part of who we are
We come from a place where imagination was the closest we had to a real world

So when a kid writes what he feels, he’s creating his own universe

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lito, I get what you’re saying
Well, if you understand me

But what do these new kids contribute?
What do you mean what do they contribute?

A lot of them don’t even know what real reggaeton is
They don’t even know how those times were

You know that back in those days
Wait, wait, but

Who the hell are you to judge the talent or vision of an artist?
Who are you to judge the flow or lyrics of a kid
Who’s inspired by his idol, whether from the old or new school?
Were you even there?
When many of us dropped out of school to dream of a day like today

Where our music is breaking records worldwide
Were you there?
When we fought against the oppression of a government that wanted to silence our voice?
Were you there when the cops chased us just for being rappers or reggaeton artists?

Tell me!

So when it comes to our music and its evolution, people like you
Shh, shh, shh

Should shut up and be quiet
Because the ears change
Generations evolve
And what was once rebellion

Today is inspiration, my brother
This was made for the youth from the projects
For those from the housing developments
For those from the neighborhoods

For the poor
For the middle class
For those who dream of being heard
No matter the race or color

They are the ones keeping the culture alive
They are the future legends

And truly, truly, truly
You can’t cover the sky with your hand
This new generation
These kids have the BPM hacked

And they go hard
