Tiro un shout out para los que son seres de luz
I throw a shout out to those who are beings of light
Y hacen mi cielo más azul
And make my sky more blue
Ojalá me hubiesen visto crecer
I wish they had seen me grow up
Toy más alto, tengo más grave la voz
I'm taller now, my voice is deeper
No tiro un trago al piso
I don't throw a drink on the floor
Porque hay más de uno que fue un adicto
Because there are more than one who was an addict
Mamá está en punga con empresarios
Mom is in a struggle with businessmen
Y yo en el estudio
And I'm in the studio
Pero a veces quisiera ser otro guachín
But sometimes I wish I could be another kid
El más chico, Cami sigue siendo el mismo
The youngest, Cami is still the same
Pero hay más recuerdos y menos conflictos
But there are more memories and fewer conflicts
Toy más cuerdo y menos maldito
I'm more sane and less cursed
Ya no estoy puesto al hus
I'm no longer on the edge
Ya me fui de San José
I've already left San José
No están ni Carlos ni José
Neither Carlos nor José are here
Y sí, hubo fe pero no en Dios
And yes, there was faith but not in God
Si él me puso en ese lugar
If he placed me in that spot
Casi no toco en Uruguay por no ser alumno regular
I hardly played in Uruguay for not being a regular student
Si dejé el colegio pa josear (no lo hagan)
I left school to mess around (don't do it)
De a 3 días sin dormir (no lo hagan)
Three days straight without sleeping (don't do it)
De a 3 días sin comer (no lo hagan)
Three days without eating (don't do it)
Mi cuerpo era un costillar (no lo hagan)
My body was a ribcage (don't do it)
Preguntaron y juré estar bien
They asked and I swore I was okay
¿De qué sirvió sanar el odio y el dolor?
What good was it to heal the hate and the pain?
Si en la comodidad no encuentro mi confort
If in comfort I can't find my solace
Quería ser star y desde que lo soy
I wanted to be a star and since I became one
No recuerdo quién soy ni dónde quiero estar
I don't remember who I am or where I want to be
¿De qué sirvió sanar el odio y el dolor?
What good was it to heal the hate and the pain?
Si en la comodidad no encuentro mi confort
If in comfort I can't find my solace
Quería ser star y desde que lo soy
I wanted to be a star and since I became one
No recuerdo quién soy ni dónde quiero estar
I don't remember who I am or where I want to be
Lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
Lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
Lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
Lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste, lo lograste
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
