Carretera sin regreso, no regreso nunca (wersja 2)

Intro

Carretera sin regreso, no regreso

Solo el motor y mi nombre

Verse

Five a.m., the diner sign is buzzing amber light

Coffee's burnt but I'm still counting dollars left and right

Twenty in my pocket, forty miles of empty road

Every mile behind me shedding weight I used to hold

Momma said don't leave but momma never seen the block

Where the rent is due on Friday and the water's off at noon

Packed my whole life in a duffel, tape around the zipper

Every dream's a gamble and I'm playing for the bigger

Windshield full of bugs and the radio static

Grinding on a Tuesday like the calendar's automatic

Gas station burritos, cold nights in the backseat

Mapping out my come-up on a napkin, kinda rough sketch

Every town I pass through got a face I used to be

Leaving pieces of the old me on the shoulder of the street

No GPS for this, just the hunger and the hustle

Chasing something golden past the static and the rustle

Chorus

Carretera sin regreso, no regreso nunca

Every mile I'm burning is a bridge behind me

Carretera sin regreso, no regreso nunca

Chasing what I'm owed, they ain't gon' find me

Verse

Two years since I left with nothing but a name

Now the name's on paper, contract with my brain in flames

Studio at midnight, windows painted black

Every verse a mile marker on the map I can't go back

Uncle called me crazy, said the streets don't pay in dreams

But I turned my block into a bassline, turned the pain to seams

Stitched a life together out of gas fumes and grit

Every check I'm cashing feels like proof I didn't quit

Momma got her own house now, tile floor, no more leaks

Told her save the roses for the days I finally speak

On a stage that's bigger than the corner that I'm from

Where the sirens used to sing the only song I'd hum

Now it's engines, now it's amps, now it's crowds that chant my name

Still I taste the diesel when I think about the pain

Never forget the hunger, keep it folded in my chest

Fuel for every mile until I hit the west

Chorus

Carretera sin regreso, no regreso nunca

Every mile I'm burning is a bridge behind me

Carretera sin regreso, no regreso nunca

Chasing what I'm owed, they ain't gon' find me

Bridge

Sometimes I dream about the porch light, the screen door slam

Sometimes I miss the boy I was before I had a plan

But dreams don't pay the toll booth, dreams don't fill the tank

So I keep my foot down steady, watch the mirror, watch the bank

Outro

Carretera sin regreso, ya no vuelvo

Just the road, my name, and the engine's hum

Carretera sin regreso, ya no vuelvo

Every mile makes me who I've become
