Alento

If the wind stops and the sun beats down
On a bad day, in endless traffic
If the gas runs out and the dream falls apart
If the tears come and the sky swallows you

Listen to the music that lifts you up
You can get off this train
Look a little to the side
There’s no lock on your thoughts

Look at the world spinning on the ground
Look at the kite in the sky, airplane
Look at the shadow of the tree
Offering itself to give you a breath of fresh air

If money gets tight and the deadline hits
Your drink spills, your team loses
If someone’s gone, don’t try to understand
What happened stays with you

Listen to the music that lifts you up
You can get off this train
Look a little to the side
There’s no lock on your thoughts

Look at the world spinning on the ground
Look at the kite in the sky, airplane
Look at the shadow of the tree
Offering itself to give you a breath of fresh air

Everything falls apart so you can build yourself up
When the fruit is ripe, it can let go
Feel your legs on your waist, stand up to walk
If the ground is holding you, let the ground crumble
