LYRICS

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM by J BALVIN

It’s been more than ten years putting it in and I still sound like new
Balvin doesn’t have a replacement, I have money, respect and balls to spare
Yo, every move that I make, I raise it to another level
You played [on the radio] and faded away and you don’t even have half of what I have
And on the real, it looks like the older I get the harder I get
Envious, breathe in deep, ‘cause I have the sauce of the Grand Combo
I know what it’s like to be on top, but I also know what it is to hit bottom
The difference between you and me is that I’ve never betrayed my combo

Every day clearer (clearer)
I keep being outrageous (outrageous)
Every day harder
Every day clearer (clearer)
Every day more expensive (expensive)
I keep being outrageous (outrageous)
Every day harder
And you get worse every day

I earned it
I worked for it
And he who doesn’t sweat it doesn’t enjoy it (sweat)
And when I’m feeling stressed out, I get on the plane with the Switch and the girl (girl)
Calm, but here I am writing my story à la Pablo Neruda
No fit mode
But the suitcase I do have is flow Buddha
And that’s the small one

Keep on asking like a dumbass
I’m already up there, there, there
They believe the movie quick, that’s why they hardly last, hardly last
You want to me, my g, that’s a hard thing to do (it’s hard, it’s hard)
You’ve been hittin’ it for two years, but I’ve been creating culture for ten [years]

Every day clearer (clearer)
I keep being outrageous (outrageous)
Every day harder
Every day clearer (clearer)
Every day more expensive (expensive)
I keep being outrageous (outrageous)

[Metallica Break]

WHEREVER I MAY ROAM

…And the road becomes my bride
I have stripped of all but pride
So in her I do confide
And she keeps me satisfied
Gives me all I need

…And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave
Rover wanderer
Nomad vagabond
Call me what you will

But I’ll take my time
Free to speak my mind anywhere
And I’ll redefine anywhere

Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home

…And the earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I’ve grown
By myself but not alone
I ask no one

…And my ties are severed clean
The less I have the more I gain
Off the beaten path I reign
Rover wanderer
Nomad vagabond
Call me what you will

But I’ll take my time anywhere
I’m free to speak my mind anywhere
And I’ll never mind anywhere

Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home

But I’ll take my time anywhere
Free to speak my mind
And I’ll take my find anywhere

Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head I home

Carved upon my stone
My body lie, but still I roam

Wherever I may roam
