Lyrics
voy camino a casa, luego de un dia largo y cansado
tengo música de fondo me mantiene relajado.
Entre carros o mentir y mucho ruido,
veo alguien que camina con su rostro entristesido,
tenía un recipiente, que contenía un par de monedas
y una frase repetida 'brother dame lo que puedas'
Allí siempre se pasaba por la tarde y mañana,
unos lo esperaban, otros le cerraban la ventana
y si alguien le hablaba era en forma de prejuicio,
no le daban pa' su hambre, pensaban que era pal' vicio.
Le veia agotado, no daba más, estaba exhausto, da un suspiro
y al momento se dirije hacia mi auto, un carto que me decia 'hace tiempo
que no ceno, porfavor dame la mano, no soy malo, yo soy bueno'
Además de unas monedas
va arrastrando unas cadenas,
dolor una condena que consuela por sus venas.
Vacío que no llena, al contrario lo envenena
recuerdo del pasado, esperanza pa' sus venas.
Cuando le brinde la ayuda para saciar su barriga,
con los ojos muy aguados, dijo que Dios te bendiga
da la vuelta con su cara triste, medio avergonzado,
yo sentía que queria hablarme, que no habia terminado
Cuando ya me da la espalda dije tambien te bendigo
pero te hago una pregunta. dime que paso contigo?
Respiro profundo, y regreso… para entoces contarme
y me dice porfavor ahora no vaya a juzgarme
porque ya son muchos los que me han venido con sermones.
Como tú, yo soy humano y tomo malas decisiones
yo también tenía familia, yo también tenía un hogar
tengo un hijo que a la cara no me quiere ni mirar
Y a su madre en ese entonces no la supe valorar
hice algo incorrecto y no me quieren perdonar
pero lo más que me duele, recuerdo aquel dia 2
cuando decidí alejarme completamente de Dios.
Además de unas monedas
va arrastrando unas cadenas
dolor una condena que consuela por sus venas.
Vacío que no llena, al contrario lo envenena
recuerdo del pasado, esperanza pa' sus venas.
El semaforo cambió y ya tenia que marcharme,
hice una oración por él, con la intención de restaurarle
declarando que para subir, iba a salir el sol
que Dios nunca se ha olvidado, siempre ha tenido el control
Me confieza porque sorprendidamente
me miraba, es que al verme de momento a su hijo le recordaba
me menciona que a pesar de todo
aún anhelaba volver a ser aquel hombre que
a su familia cuidaba, volver a ser aquel hombre que siempre confiaban.
Pero sentía temor de que ellos lo despreciaran
y le dije, ya no dudes, no lo creas imposible,
tú bien sabes que para el que cree, TODO lo es posible.
Que para su vida nuevamente iba a salir la luz,
que buscara a su familia, en el nombre de Jesús,
que le agradeciera porque todavía estaba vivo
termino diciendo 'gracias, lo recibo'
Además de unas monedas
va arrastrando unas cadenas
dolor una condena que consuela por sus venas.
Vacío que no llena, al contrario lo envenena
recuerdo del pasado, esperanza pa' sus venas.
Además de unas monedas
va arrastrando unas cadenas
dolor una condena que consuela por sus venas.
Vacío que no llena, al contrario lo envenena
recuerdo del pasado, esperanza pa' sus venas.
Lyrics translation
I'm on my way home, after a long, weary day
I have background music keeps me relaxed.
Between cars or lying and a lot of noise,
I see someone walking with his sad face,
he had a container, which contained a couple of coins
and a repeated phrase 'brother give me what you can'
It was always there in the afternoon and in the morning,
some waited for him, others closed the window
and if someone spoke to him it was in the form of prejudice,
they didn't give him his hunger, they thought it was PAL' vice.
I saw him exhausted, he gave no more, he was exhausted, he sighed
and at the moment he was heading towards my car, a card that said to me 'a long time ago
I don't eat dinner, Please give me your hand, I'm not bad, I'm good'
In addition to a few coins
he's dragging some strings.,
pain a sentence that comforts her veins.
Empty that does not fill, on the contrary poisons it
I remember the past, hope for your veins.
When I give you the help to satiate your belly,
with very watery eyes, he said God bless you
he turns around with his sad, half-ashamed face,
I felt like I wanted to talk to myself, that I wasn't done
When you turn your back on me I said I bless you too
but I'm asking you a question. tell me what happened to you?
I take a deep breath, and I come back ... so tell me
and please don't judge me now.
because there are already many who have come to me with sermons.
Like you, I'm human and I make bad decisions
I also had a family, I also had a home
I have a son who doesn't even look at me in the face
And his mother at the time, I didn't know how to value her.
I did something wrong and they don't want to forgive me
but as much as it hurts, I remember that day 2
when I decided to get away from God completely.
In addition to a few coins
he's dragging some strings.
pain a sentence that comforts her veins.
Empty that does not fill, on the contrary poisons it
I remember the past, hope for your veins.
The traffic light changed and I had to leave.,
I prayed for him, intending to restore him
declaring that to rise, the sun would rise
that God has never forgotten, has always had control
He confesses to me because surprisingly
he was looking at me, just seeing me at the moment his son reminded him
he mentions to me that in spite of everything
I still longed to be that man who
his family was taken care of, to be the man they always trusted.
But I was afraid that they would despise him
and I said, Don't hesitate anymore, don't think it's impossible,
you well know that for the one who believes, anything is possible.
That for his life again the light would come out,
to seek his family, in the name of Jesus,
to thank him because he was still alive
I end by saying 'Thank you, I receive it'
In addition to a few coins
he's dragging some strings.
pain a sentence that comforts her veins.
Empty that does not fill, on the contrary poisons it
I remember the past, hope for your veins.
In addition to a few coins
he's dragging some strings.
pain a sentence that comforts her veins.
Empty that does not fill, on the contrary poisons it
I remember the past, hope for your veins.
