El tiempo escapa
Nach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El tiempo escapa
?de qu? sirven tantos relojes de plata
cuando un alma de hojalata nos delata?
?de qu? sirve tanta pasta si el orgullo se malgasta?
Conclusi?n nefasta, la presi?n aplasta
Hasta devastar la suerte
Nuestra mente sigue inerte porque nada nos divierte.
No vivimos el momento ni curamos las heridas
Que abre nuestro sufrimiento.
Amores por capricho, y odios de entretenimiento
Sin que importe que el de enfrente yazca muerto
O que el legado dejado nos sea incierto
Afrontamos los problemas inundando nuestras venas
Con venenos que condenan al cerebro sin medida, todo es mentira
Tragamos rabia contenida para ir a la oficina cada d?a
El tiempo escapa y el despertador obliga
Enterrando nuestros sue?os como un “gravedigaz”
Que alguien me diga
?qu? educaci?n tienen los ni?os con gui?os de dictadura?
?de qu? libertad se habla si la verdad se censura?
?qu? soluci?n se ofrece si el mundo amanece a oscuras?
Confusi?n en masa, a duras penas y otros mes que pasa
As? volvemos al inicio, encerr?ndonos en casa
D?as como parpadeos
Noches que nos tienen reos
En deseos bajo la luz de la luna
Aprendiendo a competir desde una cuna
Ense?ando a conseguir fama y fortuna
La existencia es tan fugaz
Y la violencia tan voraz que nos atrapa
Pi?nsalo, el tiempo escapa.
[Estribillo/Payo Malo/Nach/Aniki]
El tiempo escapa
Vivimos pensando en ma?ana
Creemos que quien m?s tiene
M?s vale, m?s gana
Prisi?n urbana,
Sue?os de riqueza y fama,
Que se rompen convirti?ndose en lamento y drama.
[Payo Malo]
El tiempo escapa, trepa, trapa,
El mundo es un trapo.
Boca sin grapas no le tapa esparadrapo.
Capo en mi, quepo en ti
Estoy en ti, nunca ment?
Escapo con mi bloc y mi boli Bic
Voy sin VIP y en ti entro, no miento,
Est?s perdiendo el tiempo pensando en tus lamentos
Andas tan lento, mueres por dentro
Sue?as tan alto que, al caer, no cagas dentro
Entro y al viento, templos de naipes tambalean
Hoy no hay marea. Cuando salga el sol, pedalea. Pelea
?qui?n no marea la perdiz?
Para ser feliz no aprendas del aprendiz
De lo que v?, aprendo
Sufriendo sigo estando,
Molestando voy creciendo
Creyendo poder parar el tiempo
El tiempo se escapa, r?pido, corriendo.
[Aniki]
Esc?chalo, es el susurro del viento abrasador que hace mella en ti.
Dist?nguelo, este es tu contorno, no vivir? por ti.
Cada suspiro es una l?grima en la laguna del recuerdo,
Todo ha pasado ya. Aprovecha el tiempo y ver?s que...
[Estribillo]
El tiempo escapa
Vivimos pensando en ma?ana
Creemos que quien m?s tiene
M?s vale, m?s gana
Prisi?n urbana,
Sue?os de riqueza y fama,
Que se rompen convirti?ndose en lamento y drama.
The song "El Tiempo Escapa" by Nach, Payo Malo, and Aniki talks about the reality of life where people often chase after material things like money, fame, and success but forget to live in the moment. The lyrics express the frustration of living in a society where people indulge in superficial pleasures and ignore the essence of living. The first verse speaks about the futility of money and possessions when one's soul is hollow. Even though people have expensive watches, they fail to embrace the beauty of life.
The second verse talks about the collective loss of humanity where people waste their lives away with vices like drugs, alcohol, and other harmful activities. The quest for momentary pleasure transcends into a life full of regrets and unfulfilled ambitions. The verse encourages people to acknowledge the harsh truth that death is an inevitable part of life, and one must learn to live in the present and embrace opportunities.
The third verse talks about the importance of time and not wasting it on regretting the past or planning for the future. It encourages people to live life at their pace, without being bogged down by societal pressure or materialistic desires. The song urges people to realize that time is a precious commodity that will always continue to escape.
Overall, the song is a reminder of the fleeting nature of life and stresses the importance of living in the moment and not being trapped by societal expectations.
