Maverick - Peter Williams

La vida es una fiera que me está matando lentamente Y ya no sé qué va a pasar después de que Todo haga y ya no tenga que hacer nada más Es esta mala idea de que nada me podría hacer mejorar Lo que hice ya no significa nada si al final me siento mal Todo lo que pienso algún día me va a matar Quiero abrazarme Luego decirme que voy a estar bien Como cuando fui un niño que al final no supo que La vida que quería no fue lo que creía él Cuánto quisiera que esto deje de pasar Calmar esa fiera y poder mi vida cambiar Probé tantas cosas por intentarla calmar Y, por más que intento, ya no puedo más Ya no puedo más, ya no puedo más ¿De qué se trata la vida si no hay dolor? ¿Por qué me la paso evitándolo? Quiero pensar que mañana me irá mejor Mi voz interna gritándolo Todo está bien Tranquilo, respira, se puede caer Ahora mira pa' arriba, disfruta lo bueno que tiene la vida Que el sentimiento decida Entre sístoles y diástoles Esperando la catástrofe Sentado bajo los árboles Abrázame y devuélveme la fe Vamos a hablar de lo que ya fue Quédate y sírvete otro café Desde el pasado viniste a ver Y te mostré por qué Llorando, me acerqué al espejo y me vi a lo lejos Recuerdos de otros tiempos, movies en blanco y negro La mente y sus enredos, bebo hasta ponerme pedo Quiero vencer el miedo, debo de confiar de nuevo Pero aquí estamos solos como perros de azotea Con el corazón en ruinas, los egos nos pisotean Y se pasean como dueños del lugar Por eso todo lo que pienso algún día me va a matar

When I was young If I just closed my eyes Then I could go anywhere Dream of any place Imagination set the pace And my heart was happy there What a shame that you came Round and told me Said my dreams can't come true "Don't be foolish Give up your wish Big things aren't for you" And how you'd scold and chide me Forever criticize me But now I think I know the truth You were the one Who held me down and told me I was heading nowhere You said know your place Accept your fate and show good face And be thankful that you're there That was so long ago When you owned me I believed it was true Bend me shape me Build me break me Why was I your fool? And now I'm so much stronger I'm not yours any longer I've got a message here for you Time for you to learn It's my turn I won't be held down any longer I've waited all my life and finally it's here It all begins A chance to win A dream that's been a lifetime An endless vast uphill climb The day I've waited for is drawing near Hey wait turn and show your face I've got a lot to say And you're not going anywhere You lose; the time you ruled me's through I'm in control I own my soul And I'll never go back there Wasted years that I spent Never knowing I was kept, I was used Never-ending Condescending Now I just refuse I don't care what it costs me I know I almost lost me Won't spend another day confused You rose I fell Made my life hell Anything to crush my soul Anything to feel control Finally free I've come so far Finally see how sick you are I spent my life degraded But I won't leave here jaded I'll start again and finally prove Time for you to learn It's my turn I won't be held down any longer I've waited all my life and finally it's here It all begins A chance to win A dream that's been a lifetime An endless vast uphill climb The day I've waited for is drawing near

I met a man He had a dream I tried to understand But nothing was what it seemed Sometimes, that's how gods roll We'd sit for hours He'd share his plans To build a universe And make every part by hand A big scheme with an infinite goal So I would watch and listen and try to learn As pieces and bits became whole But there is more going on than the work at hand What I learned had to do with the strength of the soul There's a light that shines And it's power is mine! Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable! So, step by step And frame by frame A world's created Its map fashioned from a stain Just dream big then work 'til it grows I learned this lesson We can evolve Achieving anything As long as our heart's resolved Believing will make it so Though our lives are limited by years on Earth Our dreams won't be bound inside The goal's not to live forever 'Cause eternity loves the creations of time There's a light that shines And it's power is mine! Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable! Don't be afraid! Get up, get going A step everyday I'll meet you there When we strive, we transcend Even death cannot end our climb! I wasn't ready You can't prepare For the unthinkable For something that's so unfair It's cruel but that's how life goes But through the sadness Thousands of tears We see his message Sparkling and crystal clear Our work is larger than we know! There's a light that shines And it's power is mine! Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable!

I like Charlie Daniels and I love big John Cash And I think Waylon "Woktosha" Jennings Is a table thumpin' smash Playin' with Marshall Tucker Band Was as good as smokin' grass But if you don't like Hank Williams You can kiss our ass Cause I think what they done Is well worth doin' And their doin' it the Best way that they can Oh you're the only one That you are screwin' When you put down what You don't understand I love all them Allman Brothers, Merle Haggard, and George Jones Shotgun Willie Nelson and them Rockin' rollin' Stones Everything the Eagles do And I'm in love with Linda Rondstat Anybody that don't like Hank Williams You can kiss our ass Cause I think what they done Is well worth doin' And their doin' it the Best way that they can Oh you're the only one That you are screwin' When you put down what You don't understand I ain't sayin' that he was The first or the last But if you don't like Hank Williams You can kiss our ass
