Desde crío
Since I was a child
Me conducían el soñar
They led me to dream
Todo era imposición
Everything was imposed
Desde niño
Since I was a kid
Controlaban lo que iba a pensar
They controlled what I would think
Mataban la ilusión
They killed the illusion
Lo que no mata
What doesn't kill me
Me fortalece hoy
Makes me stronger today
Ser combatiente
To be a fighter
Me fortalece hoy, por hoy
Makes me stronger today, for today
Por oh-oh-hoy
Oh-oh-today
Y nunca quise ser igual
And I never wanted to be the same
Nunca me latió ser del rebaño
I never felt like being part of the herd
Pensar tan diferente hoy
Thinking so differently today
Hoy no tiene vivo combatiente
Today has no living fighter
Soy combatiente, nadie me va a parar
I am a fighter, no one is going to stop me
Soy combatiente, nada me va a parar, no, no
I am a fighter, nothing is going to stop me, no, no
Soy combatiente, sobreviviente, yo
I am a fighter, a survivor, me
Lo que no me mató, me fortaleció
What didn't kill me, made me stronger
Somos en serie fabricados
We are serially manufactured
Como unos clones programados
Like programmed clones
Siempre imponiendo que pensar
Always imposing what to think
Que joder, que amar, que rezar, que pisotear
What to screw, what to love, what to pray, what to trample
Soy combatiente, nadie me va a parar
I'm a fighter, no one will stop me
Soy combatiente, nada me va a parar, no, no
I'm a fighter, nothing will stop me, no, no
Soy combatiente, sobreviviente, yo
I'm a fighter, a survivor, I
Lo que no me mató, me fortaleció
What didn't kill me, made me stronger
Su misión
Their mission
Es lo que nos mata
Is what kills us
La imposición
The imposition
Lo que nos va a matar
What’s going to kill us
Mejor es respetar
It's better to respect
Al prójimo amar
To love your neighbor
Y ser un combatiente
And be a fighter
Soy combatiente, nadie me va a parar
I'm a warrior, no one will stop me
Soy combatiente, nada me va a parar, no, no
I'm a fighter, nothing will stop me, no, no
Soy combatiente, sobreviviente, yo
I'm a fighter, a survivor, I
Lo que no me mató, me fortaleció
What didn't kill me, made me stronger
Soy combatiente, sobreviviente, yo
I'm a fighter, a survivor, I
Lo que no me mató, me fortaleció, oh-oh
What didn't kill me, made me stronger, oh-oh
