Es una historia sin principio, ni fin
It's a story with no beginning, no end
De esas que ves por ahí

Lo único raro fue que no imaginó

Lo que podía venir

Se fue de militante en un descontrol

Pensó que ser un héroe era así

Peleó con uñas, dientes y el corazón

Pero nunca pudo salir
But he could never get out
Ya no bastaba con dejarse llevar

Ahora había que seguir

Poner cabeza y aguantar el tirón

Que con la vida es así

Tener fe y no tener religión
