Uno Mismo

How many different things
God put in this world
And also made us free
To choose and find the way
Not to lose balance
To achieve what one wants
And fall into an abyss
For not doing what should be done

And the most difficult test
Faced on the path
Is undoubtedly the battle
That is fought with oneself
And selfishness appears
Eager to fight
And lies add up
To unleash the war

And in the end it's oneself
Who ignores conscience
Who moves against the flow
Without measuring the consequences
Because I am my own slave
When I say what I think
Because sometimes I harm
When I silence what I feel

And it becomes uphill
And the storm is so strong
That one ends up alone
Like a lighthouse in the fog
