En El Camino

On the road I found myself
That bastard who ignored me
Talking to people
How he met me
When I was a kid, just messing around
They denied me a favor
Now they request me
As a guest of honor

One thing is being nice
And another is being a fool
That's why the list is short
Which I navigate
Of false friendships
Like lightning, I move away
I don't like falsehoods
I walk on the level

The friends I have
I've always kept them
They are the real ones giving advice
Let me prove it to you
When I didn't earn much
There were few with pleasure
Those who always supported me
And helped me out

Honestly, I thank
Those who helped me
I remember gathering pennies
Just to have a taco
I struggled a lot
And I never erase the past
It's the reason for my being
And what I have achieved

There were days I sang
And nights I cried
When I was a sapling
It was where I jumped
It was the hunger of my children
I had to overcome
And give them a good future
For their better behavior

I did it as best as I could
And look how I succeeded
But I changed things
Look where I got
Now that I sing live to you
I enjoy the applause
From all my people and my best friends
