La Escalera Lyrics English Translation by Lenier
Now I know what it is to suffer and to cry
Now I know what it is to live with distrust
I have lost friends
Oh, I have lost loves
But to be happy, I never lost hope
All I have left are the memories of my childhood
The photos remain, the advice from my grandmother
That boy, the one who one day had nothing
He only had a dream and he achieved it, he became
The number one and he made it
He wanted to be a legend and he made it
They pushed him off his horse and nobody could knock him down
Another like me won’t be born again here
The number one and he made it
He wanted to be a legend and he made it
They pushed him off his horse and nobody could knock him down
Another like me won’t be born again here
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
When I walk, everybody moves to the corner
When I grab the mic, everybody moves to the corner
Don’t greet me, just stay in your little booth
It’s not the same to see the devil, but from up close
I know the one who killed it sings it
It’s just that with me the blender breaks
You’re a whole field, a canteen, just one
Hey, listen to what’s about to play now
The number one and he made it
He wanted to be a legend and he made it
They pushed him off his horse and nobody could knock him down
Another like me won’t be born again here
The number one and he made it
He wanted to be a legend and he made it
They pushed him off his horse and nobody could knock him down
Another like me won’t be born again here
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
There’s a pile of Reporters, we’re not gonna get into details
You all have a lot of sidewalk, but you’re missing the street
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
You gotta pay, I see them with a killer flow
And me at the top of the ladder watching them climb
But not just anyone can stay up there
