Caretas Lyrics in English Ismael Miranda
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Caretas by Ismael Miranda from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Yo soy un tipo que mira a este mundo de frente
I'm a guy who faces this world head-on
Miro la vida sin miedo a saber donde voy
I look at life without fear of knowing where I'm going
Digo que no si no quiero
I say no if I don't want to
Y del peligro me alejo
And I stay away from danger
Tengo otras cosas metidas aquí en mi cabeza
I have other things on my mind
Yo no estoy
I'm not
En esa
Into that
Prechorus 1
El gran vacilón es a toda la gente ayudar
The big fun is helping everyone
Escucho en la radio que late aquí en mi corazón
I listen on the radio that beats here in my heart
Mirando la luz de una estrella
Looking at the light of a star
Aprendo que la vida es bella
I learn that life is beautiful
Y poco me importa si el mundo me llama careta
And I don't care if the world calls me a phony
Careta
Pphony
Careta
Pphony
Chorus 1
Te vira la vida al revés
It's turning your life upside down
Estás entregado y no ves
You're given over and you don't see
Lo bueno que hay en otras cosas
The good that's in other things
Por todo, por nada y ¿por qué
For everything, for nothing, and why
En lo negativo caer
Fall into negativity
Si la vida te ofrece otras cosas?
If life offers you other things?
Verse 2
A veces quien sabe de todo, tiene que aprender
Sometimes the know-it-all has to learn
La puerta que es ancha a la entrada se achica después
Sometimes, even those who know everything have to learn
Y cuando allá adentro se apaga
The door that's wide at the entrance narrows later
La luz de una calle perdida
And when the light goes out inside
Es duro empujar las paredes buscando salida
The light of a lost street
Con rumbo
It's hard pushing against the walls, searching for a way out
A la vida
With a direction
Prechorus 2
Tal vez te parece una droga lo que yo te digo
Toward life
Hay muchas palabras que suelen ser duras de oír
Maybe what I'm telling you sounds like a drug
Soy franco de veras contigo
There are many words that are hard to hear
Pretendo ser solo tu amigo
I'm being truly frank with you
Procura ser igual que yo aunque te llamen careta
I only intend to be your friend
Careta
Pphony
Careta
Pphony
Chorus 2
Olvida la droga porque
Pphony
Te estas acabando y no ves
Forget the drug because
Que la vida te ofrece otras cosas
You're wasting away and you don't see
Ponle ya punto porque
That life offers you other things
Te vas a morir sin saber
Put a stop to it now because
Que tu vida merece otras cosas
You're going to die without knowing
Bridge 1
De lejos te miro y se ve
That your life deserves other things
Que empujas aquella pared
From afar I see you and it's clear
Buscando una vida sabrosa
That you're pushing against that wall
Te vira la vida al revés
It's turning your life upside down
Que mucho te cuesta después
Life turns you upside down
Te mete pa' dentro y no gozas
That costs you a lot later
Bridge 2
¿Para qué tú estas en eso?
It pulls you in and you don't enjoy it
El cuello no es pa' la soga
Why are you doing that? Your neck isn't meant for the noose
Tus hijos sufren por eso
Your children suffer because of it
Muchacho deja la droga
Kid, quit drugs
Aunque te llamen careta
Even if they call you a fake
Amigo ponte en la bola
Friend, get involved
Anda por caminos sanos
Take the straight and narrow
Salte por fin de esa ola
Finally jump off that wave
Te vira la vida al revés
It's turning your life upside down
