El Hijo de Hernandez [English translation]

I am who I am,

I don't need an identification.

I know well where I come from and where I'm headed.

Because I am what I am, not who you want me to be.

You confuse me and I don't know what you intend

I already explained it to you, but it's clear you don't understand

And that misunderstanding is a big mistake.

I am not the son of Hernandez.

I don't care what that paper says

I've got nothing to do with him

I won't lie even if I am forced to.

I am not the son of Hernandez.

You think I am a cynic

How is the casuistry my fault

If my last name is identical

It's logical, say statistics.

Don't follow me or ask me

To take part in your lie

I am who I am,

I don't need an identification.

I know well where I come from and where I'm headed.

Because I am what I am, not who you want me to be.

My personality won't change

Because someone explains how I've got to act

But I don't take orders from anybody

I am not the son of Hernandez.

I won't be another person because it's comvenient for you

Even if my declaration condemns me

I know who I am and wherever I go

I am not the son of Hernandez.

I don't know anything about genetics

But I'm not that sclerotic yet

So as to think that I am the replica

Of my tragic genealogical tree

Don't follow me or ask me

To take part in your lie

I am who I am,

I don't need an identification.

I know well where I come from and where I'm headed.

Because I am what I am, not who you want me to be.

I am not the son of Hernandez.

I am not the som of Hermandez.

I know where I come from, I know where I'm headed

That's why I know where I am, I'm not ashamed of what I am

I know my place and where I belong to

What doesn't correcpond to me and what I deserve

I am the blood of my blood and I am my customs

My habits and codes and my uncertainties

I am my actions, alone and in the crowd

I am my cadencies and my beliefs

I am my matter and my escence

I'm my presence, my abscence, my conscience

And my experience, I am my procedence

I am my past and my validity

I am my heritage and my experience

And this living is the reference

It links me with and differentiates me from others

So I don't ask for my way to be retraced

I will keep bristling even if I get dsbanded

Let my voice bounce against the Andes

I am not the son of Hernandez.

No, I am not the son of Hernandez...

No, I am not the son of Hernandez...

No, I am not the son of Hernandez...

No, I am not the son of Hernandez...

I am who I am,

I don't need an identification.

I know well where I come from and where I'm headed.

Because I am what I am, not who you want me to be.
