PERMANENTE (INTRO) English Translation Lyrics by Justin Quiles
It only costs to dream because
When one is born poor
A bit of bread and coffee
And working twice as hard
No one knows what one has been through
No one knows how much one has sweated
All those people who say they’re there
But, in truth, none of them have been around
Hustling since fourteen
I was already destined for this, I never forced it
No one wants to lend a hand during the process
They’d rather sink you and make an example out of it
I believe in myself, I swear by my bones
That this is step by step, but I am in progress
Mom told me, “Son, don’t give up on this”
That’s why I’m in love with my process
Sometimes I wonder “What’s the deal?”
Why do they want to shut the door on you?
What’s the deal?
And even if I run out of patience, I keep going
No one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
Yes, no one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
Life is fragile, tomorrow we don’t know if we’ll be here
I know one day I will have to leave
But, in the meantime, I will prevail
I have to resist
As I resisted loves
Life and all the betrayals
The things I don’t say that inside hurt me
I miss my little brother, damn, you left young
They want to sink me, but I come from the bottom
The devil against me, but God is by my side
Those who always supported me are with me
If they need anything, they know I’ll lend a hand
I miss where I grew up every summer
I hope to return and that it won’t be long
To my family, they know that I love them
I thank God because nothing has been in vain (And those who turned)
Sometimes I wonder “What’s the deal?”
Why do they want to shut the door on you?
What’s the deal?
And even if I run out of patience, I keep going
No one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
Yes, no one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
Sometimes I wonder “What’s the deal?”
Why do they want to shut the door on you?
What’s the deal?
And even if I run out of patience, I keep going
No one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
Yes, no one takes me out of here, I believe in myself, I believe in myself
