La Vida Se Va (part. Eladio Carrión)

That's why I want to live and enjoy life before I take off
That's why I want to feel, I know time is racing by
That's why I want to live in the love and respect my people give me
I just want to keep running and running while life slips away

I'm still searching for my truth among all these lies
If my lungs are breathing, I've still got life left
Another round and I'm just playing to win
Then I head back home
Where no one judges or keeps watch
As soon as I step out, I quickly see a thousand sentinels
All tensing their bows when they see you fly
I know my worth, I've already shown it
Now I bring torches of faith in case my spirit freezes
Life goes on and there's so much to do
So many lips to kiss, new landscapes to see
That's why I let go of the pain, melting away as the eclipse passes
A light reappears
I'm still swimming deep, watch me digging
The goblins that come here never pass by
I know life goes by fast, and I
Keep breaking down every wall as I walk, bro

That's why I want to live and enjoy life before I take off
That's why I want to feel, I know time is racing by
That's why I want to live in the love and respect my people give me
I just want to keep running and running while life slips away

No one has put out this flame, even though many blew on it
Today it shines for those who love me and those who left
Those who contributed nothing soon got crossed off
On this list, there are few allies left
I want to do more and think less
Put a stop to those poisons
That rot me and drain all my energy
I want to do more and say less
Smile at every 'but'
Look for those who came because they cared about me
Consistency and mental strength
I take another leap
I only do classics like Beethoven
Nothing and no one will pawn my glass
Few will see my end
I feel younger every day
We only have one life, and that's why I push myself
Giving my all and not giving up is a steady job
I write this like a father watching his children be born
And I keep giving you hope like a crucifix

We only have one life
I'm going to live it well
I'm going to live it well
I don't have much time left to be regretting or complaining
I'm going to give it my all
If you know me, you know I give everything for my people
Everything is worth it, even if I don't smile sometimes
I just want my family to never have to suffer like I did

Between money and all the things I want
But I know I'll never have
Looking up, wondering if heaven exists
And if there's room for me in it
(I know life is passing by)
While I drown my sorrows
Toasting in bars
Between nights of passion and pleasure
Between cities where allies and rivals
Live together sharing my paradise
