Conjunto Clasico Lyrics

como el aire que respiro,
puede que sea mi destino
mientras viva.
Pero mi corazon jura
que encontrara aquel futuro
que brille todo lo oscuro
De mi vida que se va
y se que no volvera
no volvera jamas
Actuar siempre con cautela,
tambn con la inteligencia,
no importando la presencia
de un problema
De vivir con la creencia,
de lograr lo que se piensa
siempre esa ha sido mi ciencia,
mi dilema
Vive la vida como la debes vivir,
y nunca intentes subir
donde no puedes subir
Hablar si puedes pues habla,
callar cuando asi se debe
y asi veras siempre tienes quien te siga
No olvides
todo termina aprovecha lo que puedes
y lo que prefieres puedes lo consigas.
Vive la vida, como la debes vivir,
y nunca intentes subir,
donde no puedes subir
No olviden que es el destino
la fuerza que vence al hombre
y al que no acepte se esconde, muere vivo
Y asi mi historia termino y al mismo tiempo un consejo
que les queda de este viejo, buen amigo...
Vive la vida como la debes vivir
y nunca intentes subir donde no puedes subir
Vive la vida como la debes vivir
y nunca intentes subir donde no puedes subir
Vive la vida como la debes vivir
y nunca intentes subir donde no puedes subir
Vive la vida como la debes vivir
y nunca intentes subir donde no puedes subir
Vive la vida como la debes vivir
y nunca intentes subir donde no puedes subir
The lyrics to Conjunto Clásico's "Sin Rumbo Alguno" speak to living life without a specific purpose or direction but still having faith that things will work out. The singer talks about the importance of acting with caution and intelligence in the face of problems, always holding onto the belief that they will achieve their goals. The chorus repeatedly emphasizes the idea of living life as you should and not trying to reach beyond your limits.
The first verse talks about the singer's lack of direction in life, but they acknowledge that it might be their destiny to live without a specific plan. They compare this to the air they breathe, something essential and ever-present but without a clear purpose. However, the singer's heart swears that they will find a future that will shine a light on the darkness in their life.
In the second verse, the singer advises listeners to act with caution and intelligence, but not to let problems discourage them. They urge listeners to pursue their goals with confidence, noting that this has always been their own approach. The singer also acknowledges that sometimes it is better to remain silent, and they assert that following these principles will attract others to follow you.
The chorus repeats the idea that life should be lived according to your abilities and limitations, and you should not try to reach too high. The final verse notes that destiny is a force that can't be ignored and must be accepted. The singer imparts this wisdom as a final piece of advice to the listener.
