Vida de Estafador

Since I was a kid strumming my guitar
I discovered my calling
To sing and suffer out loud
Greed, ignorance, tragedy, and ambition
Led me to write this song

Friends, the bets
And the thrill of the game
The practice, the study, and the passion
Wishing for fifty
Hundreds, thousands, and a million
Voices to join in my song

With nauseating arrangements
That go against reason
Pretentious, wise, thief, scammer
Nighttime entrepreneurs
Owners of the information
Ready to profit from your sweat

State employees
Who don’t do their job
Inspectors of the hustle
Immoral without forgiveness
Today, a hundred ghosts can’t sleep
Since the Cromañón tragedy
Fuck them, the bitch that bore them

And I have bad news for you
Because the scammer's life
Has a ceiling, and our dream
Will have ups and downs, but no ceiling, no sir

A pile of ignorant people running the nation
Today they manage to censor our passion
Hiding behind the laws of legalization
They put restrictions, they shut down the song

Today it turns out they’ve banned me from my profession
It’s the same to be an artist or a loser
I have more work than anything else and sleep little for love
But see, I’m still a singer-songwriter

And I have bad news for you
Because the scammer's life
Has a ceiling, and our dream
Will have ups and downs, but no ceiling, no sir
Will have ups and downs, but no ceiling, no sir
Will have ups and downs, but no ceiling, no sir
