I just know, I just know, I just know

that that call

If I hadn't answered, I know

Everything was nothing

And I dream, I dream awake

Well I am not the owner of my desert

The water of life satisfied me

He took away my thirst and put the winds in my favor

It took me out of my seat and the end of the story was better

I took myself away so that God could stay

I resigned so that God could work

I did by stopping doing

And he did when I did nothing

Here I did nothing

were his scars

that now blesses me

Tell me what you, tell me what you, tell me what you believe

There is no other day better than the 13th

I just don't want to, I just don't want to, I have no interest

Look for it now and not for later

So, amen, in his hand he hid me

And the past did not find me

And I repeat, amen, in his hand he hid me

And the past did not find me

Here I did nothing

were his scars

that now blesses me

I feel complete because

He took away my thirst and put the winds in my favor

It took me out of my seat and the end of the story was better

I took myself away so that God could stay

I resigned so that God could work

I did by stopping doing

And he did when I did nothing

Here I did nothing

were his scars

that now blesses me

Forward

It took away my interest because of the interesting

Forward

And when I felt small, he made me a giant

So, amen, in his hand he hid me

And the past did not find me

And I repeat, amen, in his hand he hid me

And the past did not find me

I just know, I just know, I just know

that that call

If I hadn't answered, I know

Everything was nothing

And I dream, I dream awake

Well I am not the owner of my desert

The water of life satisfied me

He took away my thirst and put the winds in my favor

It took me out of my seat and the end of the story was better

I took myself away so that God could stay

I resigned so that God could work

I did by stopping doing

And he did when I did nothing

From A to Z

Did you like this lyrics translation?

"A Mi Favor" is Alex Zurdo, the Puerto Rican Christian rapper, giving God all the credit for turning his life around. It starts with a phone call: "Si no hubiera contestado, yo lo sé, todo fuese nada" (if I hadn't answered, I know it, everything would have been nothing). That call is the hinge of the whole song.

The imagery is all about thirst and wind. "El agua de vida me sació" (the water of life satisfied me), and then "me puso los vientos a mi favor" (he put the winds in my favor), which is where the title comes from. The best part is the paradox in the chorus: "Yo me quité pa que Dios se quedara" (I stepped aside so God could stay) and "Yo hice dejando de hacer" (I did by stopping doing). He insists "Aquí yo nada hice, fueron sus cicatrices" (I did nothing here, it was his scars), a clear nod to Jesus' wounds.

Learner tip: pa and pa'lante are casual Caribbean speech for para and para adelante (forward, keep going). And "De la A a la Z" is Alex Zurdo's own tag, playing on his initials.
