Teary eyes when I think
_____
How much time we've lost
_____
We're dust in the universe
_____
I knew it and I had told you
_____
I've always been a bit different
_____
I would've done something big
_____
I felt it growing inside and now
_____
Look, I've got a new tattoo
_____
Women and flowers on my arms
_____
In spite of everything I still stay in the square
_____
At two we still play soccer
_____
It doesn't matter if I've made it
_____
I care more about where I'm from
_____
My home's where the wind blows
_____
My life's on that concrete
_____
How much we've been through on those streets
_____
The habits I had, you know they haven't changed
_____
Those lines on me like they were tattooed
_____
They still hurt even if now they're farther away
_____
It's true, I've made some money even if I don't talk about it
_____
I prefer other things even if sometimes I hide and cry
_____
And not 'cause I feel tired, but 'cause I fight
_____
I repeat to myself: "Never change, Guido, don't do it!"
_____
No, no, no, no, I don't wanna abandon these streets
_____
I travel the world, but then I'll come back
_____
We'll be back in the square, you don't know how good a friend is
_____
Who gives you his shoulder just to cry
_____
But look at me, they wanted to change me, but
_____
It's not possible, you know well it doesn't work
_____
We'll cross the limit sitting on a cloud
_____
It's gotten late, I'm in the parking lot, the lights go out
_____
I wanna scream till I lose my voice, they don't hear me
_____
I climb on the roof to watch the sunset so they won't catch me
_____
You don't know how much I need it
_____
I'm sorry for what I did to you, I still don't forgive myself
_____
A butterfly lives little but dies flying
_____
I think about how important it can be to live by dreaming
_____
Everybody talks, but few do
_____
Everybody talks and only a few find the courage and gamble
_____
I stay watching from afar
_____
In one hand the world and in the backpack a pencil
_____
I haven't changed my track
_____
I never liked the world I was born in and I drew it again
_____
I chose how to live and don't blame myself
_____
Even if I don't care, you know me, I'll never change
_____
For when we don't agree
_____
For when I thought, "It's too much"
_____
You can't scratch the thread, it's made of granite
_____
What a son wants to hear is only, "I'll love you"
_____
Regardless of what you'll do
_____
Your family's the most precious and unique treasure
_____
But if you live it badly it's surely your worst enemy
_____
No, no, no, no, I don't wanna abandon these streets
_____
I travel the world, but then I'll come back
_____
We'll be back in the square, you don't know how good a friend is
_____
Who gives you his shoulder just to cry
_____
But look at me, they wanted to change me, but
_____
It's not possible, you know well it doesn't work
_____
No, not even a crumb
_____
We'll cross the limit sitting on a cloud
