Relatos De Mi Vida

I was born poor and I'm not complaining
Just narrating my life
I have had happy moments
And other sad ones that I can't forget

I have fallen but I get up
I let time heal the wounds
I am humble but don't look for me
Because you won't see me on my knees

Little by little you realize
Who are the ones pulling with you
I have listed in my notebook
One and a half pages of friends

But they have blank lines
From those who erased themselves
And others who are no longer on the list
Because they were assholes to me

Many times people are unfair
If you ask to borrow, they mock you
It's hard for them to say, I can't
Because when they need you, they look for you

I send them back where they came from
Twenty meters of rope, don't fit
To tie up those close-range oxen
That are not even good for the yoke

There are people who praise the rich
I don't have those false manners
I like to say what I think
And if they don't like it, I don't care

No, I allow no one to humiliate me
Because here we are all equal
No, don't think just because you carry a weight
Today you have it, tomorrow who knows

And there goes to all those people
That twenty meters of rope
Didn't fit to tie up those close-range oxen
That are not even good for the yoke, you're worth

Many times people are unfair

It's hard for them to say I can't

Twenty meters of rope don't fit

That are not even good for the yoke

And if they don't like it, I don't care

No, I allow no one to humiliate me
