Diez Años De Cárcel
Los Traileros Del Norte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sin ver consecuencias al trafico entre,
Cansado de darles tan solo miseria,
Con misero sueldo que siempre gane,
Los tiempos pasaron la plata llegaba,
El pan en la mesa por siempre sobro,
El coche a la puerta dinero en la bolsa,
Pero ahi la de malas la ley no perdona,
Maldito compadre que me denuncio,
No pudo a lo macho aguantar el castigo,
Y como un cobarde mi nombre les dio,
Diez años de carcel de pena me vino,
Por buena conducta pagaba con seis,
Al ir a mi casa mi esposa no estaba,
Se habia marchado mis hijos tambien,
Aquel licenciado a quien di mi caso,
Ahora comprendo por que lo perdio,
Se llevo mi plata se llevo a mi esposa,
Ese es peor castigo que estar en prision,
Aqui estoy de nuevo con doble delito,
Mate a los infieles porque era de ley,
No hay hombre que aguante traiciones,
Como esta aunque tras las rejas el,
Vuelva otra vez.
The lyrics of Los Traileros Del Norte's song Diez Años De Cárcel depicts the story of a man who is imprisoned for ten years after being caught trafficking. He did it to give his family a better life, but it led him to a life of crime. He was tired of giving his family just misery and wanted to provide them with a better life. With time, he started earning a lot of money, which allowed him to provide his family with everything they wanted. But one day, his friend betrayed him and reported him to the authorities, which eventually led to his imprisonment.
The lyrics further describe how the man served six years of his sentence, but when he was released and returned home, he found his wife and children had left him. The lawyer he hired to handle his case also stole his money and went away with his wife. Feeling betrayed and hurt, the man turns into a murderer and kills those who have betrayed him because he could not handle the treachery.
In conclusion, this song is a heartbreaking depiction of the challenges that come with poverty and the lengths some people will go to get out of it, the consequences of making bad decisions, and the tragic consequences of betrayal. It also highlights the difficulties people face when trying to adjust to life after prison.
