Legs that breathe snake venom

By the way of the wind I am blowing brandy

The day had started excited and happy

-It says, passport!

"Where are you going, Luminario, on this ugly night?"

-Don't you dare?

-Look at the road. 'Ta negaito!

-No man, compa, the road is the least

-The important thing is to arrive

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

Verse 1

An aimless nomad

The negative energy I bring it down

With my lamb's hooves

I decided to travel the entire continent

No compass, no time, no agenda

Inspired by the legends

For stories packed in a tin

For the stories that the moon tells

I learned to walk without a map

To go for a walk without comforts, without luxury

Protected by saints and witches

I learned to write charcoal in my notebook

And with the same language shake the whole planet

I learned that my people still pray because

The fucking authorities and the fucking royalty

They still move under the table

I learned to swallow depression with beer

My employers I spit it from the mountains

And with my own saliva I poison his champagne

I poison their champagne

Chorus 2

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

Verse 2

In your smile I see a guerrilla

An adventure, a movement

Your language, your accent

I want to discover what was already discovered

Being an emigrant, that's my sport

Today I'm going north without a passport, without transportation

On foot, with the legs

But it doesn't matter, this man hydrates

With what my pupils portray

I carry a couple of landscapes in my backpack

Charged with chlorophyll vitamin

I carry a rosary that watches over me

I dream of crossing the meridian

Slipping down the strings of Aureliano's cuatro

And arrive early to the shore

Through the desert with your feet on the grill

We go underground like squirrels

I'm going to cross the wall

I am an intruder with an inmate identity

And that's why I become a diver

And dive below the ground

So that the guards do not see me and the dogs do not smell me

Grandma don't worry

That the Virgin of Guadalupe hangs on my neck

Bridge

Hey, for all the emigrants around the world

There goes that: Calle 13

Chorus 3

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come

I have your antidote ... for those who have no identity

We are identical ... Pa'l who arrived without warning

I come quiet ... For those who are no longer

For those who are and those who come
