Envy
Mood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La maldad a lo largo de la esfera se pasea
Las cosas van de mal en peor, maldita sea
Y por los vientos que soplan no hay ninguna panacea
Ser exitoso tiene un precio caro
Hay una lista interminable de personas que callaron
Tan solo porque no se limitaron y pensaron
Y es que nadie quiere ver ojos lindos en cara ajena
Existe un trecho corto en quien te admira y quien te cela
Me mola todo esto del rap y estar en la escena
Pero no me confío mucho de quien me llama Akapellah
En los noventas fueron Biggie y Tupac, espantoso
En mi generación Tentación y Nippsey Hustle
Negros que inspiraron a otros negros talentosos
Y fueron asesinados por otro negro envidioso
Existe gente cruel que mal te quieren ver
Pero no valen na'
Haz lo tuyo y ya está
Existe gente cruel que mal te quieren ver
Pero no valen na'
Haz lo tuyo y ya está
Yo hace tiempo entendí cual era el camino
Trabaja en lo tuyo sin mirar al vecino
La envidia y la avaricia son muy malas compañeras primo mío
Yo de esa mierda voy vacío
Veo a los niños corriendo descalzos por Medellín
Y pienso en to' los pijos de España que van de G's
Yo voy con los que comparten aunque se queden sin
Y entramos vestidos de chándal en tu VIP
Viendo anuncios de carros caros en un ghetto
El que mas necesita se siente incompleto
No empecé por éxito, era por respeto
Hay quien solo busca fama pero está hueco
Bajaron a Big L y a Jam Master J
Balas de odio y de envidia en una forty five
Son young rappers, criticando a old rappers
Y old rappers criticando a young rap...
Y más na', tú sigue por tu senda y ya está
Fuck to las malas lenguas que tiran por detrás
Vienen cargaos de odio y maldad
Busca tu luz en la oscuridad
Y más na', tú sigue por tu senda y ya está
Fuck to las malas lenguas que tiran por detrás
Vienen cargaos de odio y maldad
Busca tu luz en la oscuridad
Hey bro'! Baja del show
Vive tu life, drive and go
Hey bro'
Hey bro! Baja del show
Vive tu life, smoke and go
In the song "Envy" by Mood, the lyrics discuss the theme of envy, how it can lead to cruelty, and how it is a recurring problem throughout history. The song highlights that success comes at a high price, and there are always people who will try to tear others down out of envy. The lyrics also address the idea of people admiring others but also feeling jealousy and the importance of staying true to oneself and not worrying about those who are envious.
The rapper talks about how envy is a widespread issue that affects people in all parts of the world, and it cuts across different cultures, social classes, and age groups. It causes harm and creates animosity among people, and it is a force that exists everywhere. The lyrics also mention how individuals should not compare themselves to others and should instead work within their capabilities to make the most of their talents and skills.
Ultimately, the song is a message of hope that encourages individuals to keep their heads up and focus on their own journey despite the negativity that surrounds them. The final lines suggest that we should live life and strive for personal growth, regardless of what others may say or do.
