La recompenza es basta
Y la vida una sola
Vivir hora tras hora
Para morir y ser yo
La recompenza basta
Y la vida una sola
Vivir hora tras hora
Para morir y ser yo
(Eliel!)
Aveces uno se pregunta si la vida es justa
Porque mi vieja se tuvo que morir de cancer
Y no estar aqui conmigo viendome triunfar
Porque mataron a Georgie, a Charlie, a Tony
A Carmelo y a su primo Michael
Porque los mataron y los dejaron irreconocibles
Y los tuvimos que enterrar
Y llorarlos
Y hasta olvidarlos
Aveces uno se pregunta si la vida vale la pena, socio
Porque la vida en el caserio
No es igual a la vida en una urbanizacion cerrada
Porque Victor Fajardo se robo el dinero
Que era pa' que nuestros chamaquitos estudiaran
Y salieran del barrio con un diploma
En vez de un tiro
Porque a Pedro Rosello jamas lo pudieron vincular con el palo del pueblo
Porque hay falsos profetas alfrente de una iglesia
Y hasta les permiten tener programas de television
Porque sigue la guerra en el caserio
Y las AK-47, como lobos de una fucking noche interminable
Porque, señora gobernadora, el gobierno nos roba la fe
Y mata nuestras esperanzas
Porque hay que seguir viviendo encontrando tantas dificultados
Porque los domingos en mi barrio no son los mismos que en Torrimar
Porque Norberto Nieves pudo salir a la graduacion de su hijo
Cuando a miles de preso no se les permite
Porque Buzo esta cumpliendo en su casa
Y a nuestro hermanito Tempo lo tienen cumpliendo en la Federal
Porque hay guerra entre Estados Unidos y el Medio Oriente
Porque hay que seguir viendo mas odio, mas ira, mas ratings
Mas carceles, mas masacres, mas sueños rotos, mas lagrimas
Mas historias de superacion, de fabricacion de cargos
Porque vivir, mi hermano?
Sientate, que te voy a decir
Vivimos, porque la recompenza es estar vivo, papi
Me aferre de la verdad
Y adopte la realidad
Por que vivir no es por vivir
Si no vivir pa' superar
Y me aferre de la verdad
Y adopte la realidad
Por que vivir no es por vivir
Si no vivir pa' superar
Yo me aferre a que mi viejo me amara
Sin embargo, Edwin Otero lanzo su hija al vacio
Yo me aferre a creer en Dios
Cuando sus representantes en la tierra cometian lascivia
Yo me aferre a creer en la lealtad
Sim embargo en mi barrio hasta los primos se tiran trambos
Yo me aferre a que el gobierno fuera algo verdadero
Sin embargo, el gobierno resulto ser una total mentira
Yo me aferre a creer en la paz
Cuando miles de puertorriqueños son llamadas al field de la guerra
Y mueren por gotas de petroleo
Yo me aferre a creer que el matrimonio, segun la iglesia catolica
Es hasta que la muerte nos separe
Y sin embargo, viene nuestra gobernadora y se nos divorcia
Yo me aferre a que los jodedores de la calle no chotean
Y pal de cocorotes panas mias hicieron valvula en la Federal
Y a que se habran aferrao' los dos chamaquitos que salieron de la Grabiela Mistral
Sin saber que esa tarde morian en el Cerro Maravilla
Brother, yo me aferre al amor
Y estoy vivo
Este es mi testimonio
Gallego...
Don Omar...
Me aferre de la verdad
Y adopte la realidad
Por que vivir no es por vivir
Si no vivir pa' superar
Y me aferre de la verdad
Y adopte la realidad
Por que vivir no es por vivir
Si no vivir pa' superar
La recompenza es basta
Y la vida una sola
Vivir hora tras hora
Para morir y ser yo
La recompenza es basta
Y la vida una sola
Vivir hora tras hora
Para morir y ser yo
Don Omar, real name William Omar Landrón (Puerto Rico, February 10, 1978), is a Puerto Rican singer, songwriter and actor. He began singing and writing songs at age 12, feeling very close to the reggaeton style, which began to develop in Puerto Rico in the early 1990s. His musical beginnings saw him as an actor in the Iglesia de la Restauración en Cristo en Bayamón, where he served as a pastor for four years; after a romantic relationship, he was forced to leave his vows. In 2002, William Omar Landrón's career took a significant turn when Tito El Bambino, of the duo Héctor y Tito, decided to help him. It was during this period that he adopted the stage name Don Omar and composed some pieces for other singers, including Tito himself. He always collaborated with the duo on Reconquista. He became one of the most well-known representatives of reggaeton alongside Daddy Yankee, and his albums became classics of the musical genre. Don Omar is known for his energetic and spectacular concerts, which have taken him to perform all over the world. Among his most famous songs are "Dale Don Dale", "Pobre Diabla" and "Dile", while among his most successful albums are "The Last Don" (2006) and "Don Omar Presents: Meet the Orphans" (2009).

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
