Soy Yo

(álbum: The Cornershop Carnival - 2023)

You set out to change your future and to make a living
Left behind two brothers dreaming, another one in prison
It wasn't forgiven though
You wired cold cash back home
Dreaming of the day you will no longer be an immigrant

Sintiendo frio
Saltando al vacío
All this time away now they no longer know you when they see you
Y hay tanta hambre
Y todo ambulante
They say the grass is always greener on the other side until you get there
Soy yo, soy yo, este soy yo

You moving fast in life, you hustle every way you can
You tried to walk the line, do right despite the circumstances
And life can be hard for sure
Most days you come up short
Grateful for the day cause you know so many others they don't make it

Sintiendo frio
Saltando al vacío
All this time away now they no longer know you when they see you
Y hay tanta hambre
Y todo ambulante
They say the grass is always greener on the other side until you get there
Soy yo, soy yo, este soy yo

You walk around the streets, standing tall 'cause now you made it
But people in this world don't see you, you just don't fit in
You left 'cause you could not stay
And back home you're just a name
And here you don't belong, you're lost, you are who I am

Sintiendo frio
Saltando al vacío
All this time away now they no longer know you when they see you
Y hay tanta hambre
Y todo ambulante
They say the grass is always greener on the other side until you get there
Soy yo, soy yo, este soy yo
