Taking over

(Taking over...)
Hey, papi, give it all to me.
Taking over.
 
[They say that] it goes up, it goes down, anything can happen,
that the human nature is finishing our whole race off.
When you triumph in life, the envy gets bigger,
every time you go up, someone's trying to take you down.
 
You don't notice that wolves stay by your side,
because a simple disguise suits them perfectly.
There're always party crashers when you go out to have fun,
but when you really need them, you can't find them anywhere.
 
The jealousy is so big that it tickles me.
[They care] if I get fat, if I get skinny, if I took off a rib.
Today, I have the answer to any question,
because I keep on walking, and I keep on winning.
 
(Taking over...)
Taking over life,
harvesting joy.
There's no barrier that can hold me back
from enjoying a new day.
Taking over the good stuff,
throwing away the bad stuff.
There's no darkness that can cover
the light that shines within me.
 
Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
 
It seems that we're deadly weapons,
because without a doubt, we mutilate our own natural feelings.
We crush joy, we destroy life.
We wreck our own souls; stumbles and apathy.
 
We judge everyone we find,
we tear their beliefs apart, and we envy their reasons.
[They say that] If he's handsome, must be gay; if he's rich, he's a drug dealer;
and if she's so young and pretty, had plastic surgery.
 
We're entering a new millennium.
Let's only focus on what happens in our own body.
We're young and strong, and also smart.
Let's gather within our souls only what we take over.
 
(Taking over...)
Taking over life,
harvesting joy.
There's no barrier that can hold me back
from enjoying a new day.
Taking over the good stuff,
throwing away the bad stuff.
There's no darkness that can cover
the light that shines within me.
 
Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
 
(Bum-bum...)
(Bum-bum...)
Taking over.
(Bum-bum...)
(Bum-bum...)
 
By looking back, we can learn the legacy
from people that have left their mark on the past.
Einstein, DaVinci, Neruda1 and Maliche2,
the Aztec, Toltec, and also Zapotec people3.
 
Napoleon, known for his tactics.
Cleopatra in love, didn't devote to anyone.
Gandhi, Luther and Mother Teresa,
even if years keep passing by, we'll still talk about their strength.
 
Lady Diana, the princes of hearts,
and Eve, who sinned, and took us down with her actions.
Luther King, Malcolm X, with an unstoppable faith.
They all are people on history that will keep on taking over.

Taking over life,

There's no barrier that can hold me back
from enjoying a new day.
Taking over the good stuff,
throwing away the bad stuff.
There's no darkness that can cover

Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
Oh-oh, oh-oh.
Taking over life.
 
Taking over.
Taking over.
Taking over.
Taking over.
 
Hey, papi, give it all to me.
