Because of my dark skin they erased my identity
I felt trampled by the entire society
I had to become strong out of necessity
I was the man of the house at a very early age
Since I was born I knew the need
my barefoot heart was lost in the city
of my shoes worn from walking so much
I learned about street life and its loneliness
Since everything I have, I have, I have is my truth
and only my truth accompanies me
(chorus)
Truth, my truth
I don't want your authority
br/>I just want to walk with dignity
and conquer my freedom.
my people think
pity and storm
the eyes of my neighborhood are rained with humidity
against all odds we create humanity
against the silence breaking the coldness
br/>Since everything I have, I have, I have is my truth
and that only accompanies me paña paña paña my
(chorus)
Truth, truth my truth
I don't want your authority
I just want to walk with dignity
and conquer my freedom.
You see the fear, we see the truth
you breed anger in the name of authority
you are the poor, you lack dignity
you know, we do not want clarity
we have no space we have the neighborhood
we do not have their guards we have a community
they need our music to see reality
but you will never know solidarity
Since I was born I knew the need
I learned from street life and its loneliness
my truth.
