Lyrics of Presumo - Raphael

Presumo (original)

Presumo de ser hombre de una sola palabra
Soy hijo del esfuerzo y de la honestidad
Que no hay puerta cerrada que mi empeño no abra
Ni abiertas que no pueda cerrar a la maldad
Por presumir presumo de nidos con polluelos
Que han ido poco a poco aprendiendo a volar
Sospecho que siguiendo el rumbo de mi vuelo
Van dejando en el cielo estelas al pasar
Ser presuntuoso a veces resulta intolerable
A los que nunca pueden de nada presumir
La lluvia para todos no siempre es favorable
Y tampoco es posible para todos subir
He dejado la vida en todas las batallas
Las heridas más hondas las logre superar
Ni siquiera la envidia, la envidia canalla
Ha logrado un instante que deje de luchar
Presumo sin ambajes de darme totalmente
De haber hecho en mi vida caminos al andar
Cuando sobre mi rio no quedaban ya puentes
He guardado la ropa y me he echado a nadar
Jamás he pretendido ser más de lo que he sido
Mi fin ha sido siempre ser fiel a mi verdad
He tendido mi mano al que he visto caído
Cuando así lo ha mandado la solidaridad
A la hora del balance lo asumo todo entero
Sigo fiel a mí mismo, como siempre lo fui
Que aunque quedan recursos para empezar de nuevo
Porque bajar los brazos no se hizo para mí

(translation)

I presume to be a man of one word
I am the son of effort and honesty
That there is no closed door that my effort does not open
Neither open that can not close to evil
For showing off I show off nests with chicks
That they have been learning to fly little by little
I suspect that following the course of my flight
They leave trails in the sky as they pass
Being presumptuous is sometimes intolerable
To those who can never boast of anything
Rain for everyone is not always favorable
And it is also not possible for everyone to climb
I have left life in all the battles
I managed to overcome the deepest wounds
Not even envy, rogue envy
He has achieved a moment that stops fighting
I presume without hesitation to give myself totally
Of having made paths in my life when walking
When there were no bridges left over my river
I have put away my clothes and I have gone for a swim
I have never pretended to be more than I have been
My goal has always been to be faithful to my truth
I have extended my hand to the one I have seen fallen
When solidarity has ordered it
At the time of the balance I assume everything in full
I remain true to myself, as I always was
That although there are resources to start over
Because lowering my arms was not done for me
