[English]

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

The cross on my chest

calibrates my body

so I can get my revenge

I have every right

These chains are weighing me down

looking back so much

there is no weapon, no Glock or Beretta

that can fire and bring you back

I am not seeking revenge

revenge is seeking me

I am not seeking revenge

All the bright stars in the sky

are reflected in my hair

I carry a thousand tongues of fire

all in my hair

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

In the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning, in the early morning

...

[Spanish]

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

La cruz en el pecho

calibra mi cuerpo

para desquitarme

yo tengo derecho

Me pesan las cadenas

tanto mirar pa' trás

no hay un arma una glock o beretta

que dispare y te traiga de vuelta

Я не шукаю помсти

помста шукає мене

Я не шукаю помсти

Todos los luceros del cielo

se reflejan en mi pelo

traigo mil lenguas de fuego

todas en mi pelo

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá

De madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá, de madrugá
