The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Me condenaron a veinte años de hastío
Por intentar cambiar el sistema desde dentro
Ahora vengo a desquitarme
Primero conquistaremos Manhattan
Después conquistaremos Berlín
Me guía una señal en los cielos
Me guía una marca de mi piel
Me guía la belleza en nuestras armas
Primero conquistaremos Manhattan
Después conquistaremos Berlín
Quisiera estar siempre contigo
Me gusta tu cuerpo, tu espíritu y tu ropa
Pero ¿ves esa fila que avanza en la estación?
Te dije, ya te dije
Que yo, ay que yo era uno de ellos
Me amaste como perdedor
Y te preocupa que pueda vencer
Sabes cómo detenerme
Y no me sabes tú comprender
¿Cuántas veces recé para yo volver a empezar?
Primero conquistaremos Manhattan
Después conquistaremos Berlín
Recuerda que yo vivía para la música
Recuerda que de mí te mantenías
Hoy es el día del padre y estamos heridos
Después conquistaremos Berlín
Quisiera estar siempre contigo
Me gusta tu cuerpo, tu espíritu y tu ropa
Pero ¿ves esa fila que avanza en la estación?
Te dije, ya te dije
Que yo, ay que yo era uno de ellos
