Salí del pozo
I came out of the well
Que le joda al envidioso
Fuck the hater
No se secan ya las flores
The flowers no longer dry
Cuando las pones en remojo
When you soak them
Camine sin luz oscuras
Walk without light in the dark
Adiós a la amargura
Goodbye to bitterness
Por falsas amistades
For false friendships
No interesan no son puras
They are not interesting, they are not pure
Una botella lancé al mar
I threw a bottle into the sea
Con llave de un cerrojo
With a lock key
Importan los detalles
Details matter
Que le den al mal de ojo
Damn the evil eye
No queremos cosas malas
We don't want bad things
Tampoco bendiciones
Neither blessings
Se que no soy perfecto
I know I'm not perfect
Y para gusto los colores
And to taste the colors
Yo no quiero que me digas
I don't want you to tell me
Ni que jures por la mama
Don't even swear by your mother
No quiero más mentiras
I do not want more lies
Y que reces en pijama
And pray in your pajamas
No mezcles la avaricia
Don't mix greed
Con las ganas de crecer
With the desire to grow
No pienses que el mendigo
Do not think that the beggar
Algún día pudo comer una
One day he was able to eat one
Porque la vida es una
Because life is one
Y que va dando mil vueltas
And it goes around a thousand times
Hoy sabes te levantas
Today you know you wake up
Y mañana no lo cuentas
And tomorrow you don't tell
Yo no pongo condiciones
I don't set conditions
No hay lujos ni mansiones
There are no luxuries or mansions
Maldita suerte mía
damn my luck
Ya aprendí de mis errores
I already learned from my mistakes
Respeto para el guerrero
Respect for the warrior
Que se buscan mala vida
They are looking for a bad life
Que roban y delinquen
They steal and commit crimes
Para que coma su familia
For your family to eat
Un puñal atravesó
A dagger pierced
Espina en el corazón
Thorn in the heart
Avaricia mala mía
my bad greed
Ya no quiero más mentiras
I don't want any more lies
Ni tampoco quiero flores
I don't want flowers either
Ya no quiero depresiones
I don't want depression anymore
Ni tampoco mal de amores
Nor love sickness
Ya no quiero que mai' se preocupe
I no longer want mai' to worry
Ni que llore
I don't even cry
Ya no quiero más perdones
I don't want any more forgiveness
Ni que sangre corazones
Don't let hearts bleed
