A Triste Vida (a sad life)

by Princess of self-destruction   Jul 12, 2006


In a cholas eyes
Never letting out
triste lagrimaz in lonely cries
track marks to prove sad times
your vato en la pinta
over false crimes
Your Lil chavalito
growing up like you
Cuz esta triste vida makes him some what blue
He sees his jefita
struggle to survive
cuz esta triste vida
And i dont know why.

(A lot of people dont speakspanish so here it is all in english)

In a cholas eyes
Never letting out
Sad tears in lonely cries
Track marks to prove sad times
your man in prison
Over false crimes
Your lil baby boy
Growing up like you
Cuz this sad life
Makes him sum what blue
He sees his mother
Struggle to survive
Cuz its a sad life
And i dont know why...
