Flores

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Is it finally that I found my place?
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
And light candles in the early morning

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Don’t bring me flowers
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
I don’t want you to cry

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Don’t bring me flowers
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
I don’t want you to cry

I’m with a Glock in the strip club
She looks at me and whispers to make it click-clack
I feel an emptiness inside, and neither the thrill nor the feedback
Can cheer me up or change my view, word

I always hated interviews
I work in silence only with straight shooters who don’t zigzag
Real, bro, just like life itself
I’m just looking for peace for my people, like in Islam

I head home, call up Karlanga and
We get each other with a gesture, 'cause there’s trust
And love is sacred like a mantra
They serve us our plates, we don’t need a menu

Who’s gonna visit you in the hospital when you’re waiting to get out?
Loyalty is invisible, you can’t touch it, can’t trace it
Out there, there are people who deceive you, I’ve seen it a few times
And that shit makes me think that

Sometimes, I wish I could go back to when no one knew me
And I’d wander drunk until dawn
Taking line 11 to Playa Virginia
With the driver waking me up over the loudspeaker

Running out, my wallet was empty
Back then, I still slept with my family
Now, I arrive and there’s no one, cold loneliness
Just me with bad vibes on a bad day

Get the barrel away from your mouth, God kept insisting
I’ll live another day, I told Him, only if you guide me, Boss
I swear to get rid of the rage and resentment
And the rebellion I have from growing up without love

Then it was just me left
With my body shaking from guilt
Kneeling down, with my hands together
I found answers on the path, it no longer forks
And I let the light lead me without asking questions

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Is it finally that I found my place?
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
And light candles in the early morning

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Is it finally that I found my place?
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
And light candles in the early morning

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Bring flowers
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
I don’t want you to cry

If I die, don’t bring me flowers
Bring flowers
If I die, I don’t want you to cry
I don’t want you to cry
