Yo contra ti [English translation]
Yo contra ti [English translation]
Intro:
I can hardly control my nerves
I've never in my life been so scared
Makeup hides my psychological state
I'm waiting to receive my diagnose
I am sorry to tell you we found a malignant lesion in your tests
Verse 1:
I have cancer, I am in limbo, in a trance
In the blink of an eye, my world is an imbalance
Will I die, will I live, who's going to decide
How will it affect my family when I tell them
The time flies, I'm starting to see changes on my body
The crude reflexion of accepting the new me in the mirror
I meet you, face to face, each day that I go out
Not all the princesses have long hair
However, your presence torments my wounds
Who are you to take away my breasts that are sources of life?
Who are you to rip off the petals of this flower?
But I'm a lotus, I'm pure and honorable
My resolution, quit with depression,
The anxiety, there's no choice
The decision is on me
To be a victim or a fighter in this mission
My mind screams freedom even though you have it in prison
Pre-Chorus:
It's me against you, who will win, who will lose?
It's me against you, someone has to win
It's me against you, in this power struggle
I promise you just one thing, I will not retreat
Chorus:
In this war, you're not invincible
I feel like a warrior, I'm indestructible
Me, me, me, me
You will not defeat me, fuck cancer
Me, me, me, me
You will not intimidate me, fuck cancer
Verse 2:
Damned you, you want to see me dead like a piano without the keys
You live inside of me, like a renter, but I'm the one who sets the rules
Without stopping, the poison enters, dangerous like thunder
I hear a voice that tells me: «You're in the hands of a Nazarene.»
It screams because of the chemo, although its dose burns me,
I'll be the legend, the caterpillar in its metamorphosis
I'm a daughter, sister, grandmother, I'm a mother
I prefer to give you war instead someone of my blood does it
I'm not throwing in the towel, one of us has to go
There's no truce with the enemy on the battlefield
You can touch my body, my soul is untouchable
Even though you tear my meat, my faith is unbreakable
You won't steal who I am, my spirit is stronger
I have won this war even if I face death
Pre-chorus:
It's me against you, who will win, who will lose?
It's me against you, someone has to win
It's me against you, in this quest for power
I promise you just one thing, I will not retreat
Chorus:
In this war, you're not invincible
I feel like a warrior, I'm indestructible
Me, me, me, me
You will not defeat me, fuck cancer
Me, me, me, me
You will not intimidate me, fuck cancer
Me, me, me, me
You will not defeat me, fuck cancer
Me, me, me
You will not intimidate me, fuck cancer
Outro:
When the tears fall and the pain grows
