Donde están Lyrics (English Translation) – Morad

Donde están (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In this verse, Morad reflects on how he’s always there for others during difficult times, yet when he’s feeling down, he’s left to walk alone. He feels like people leave quickly because they think he doesn’t appreciate them. He mentions how time heals, but it also makes him forget certain things. He’s often alone, walking the streets, dealing with personal battles and pain. Growing up with nothing, he acknowledges the struggles of his past but also the transformation he’s gone through. Now that he’s in a better place, he’s still dealing with the emotional scars. Morad admits that love wasn’t his priority, but as time passed, his focus shifted to making money. He points out his tough journey, having spent time in jail, listening to Tego Caldeón, and making risky decisions that blinded him to his problems. He’s no longer attached to people, and if they leave, he doesn’t care. His ego is important to him, and he’s willing to stand by it.

[Chorus]
In the chorus, Morad questions where all the people who promised to be there for him are when times are tough. He calls out those who said they’d protect him or fight for him. He feels abandoned by those who once swore to stand by his side, wondering where they went when everything fell apart. He feels betrayed and frustrated, asking where the ones who said they’d never leave are now. He can’t find them anywhere, and this absence hurts because he’s left alone to face everything. The repetition of these questions highlights his disappointment in people who didn’t live up to their promises.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, Morad talks about how some people only help when they have something to gain, using the metaphor of a hook. He suggests that others want to see him succeed, but only to watch him fall, because they enjoy seeing the struggle. He doesn’t feel envious of anyone because he knows his own struggles, and he doesn’t judge others because he knows everyone has their flaws. Time has made him more cynical, as he sees things in a darker light. While his circle of friends has gotten smaller, he’s gained more money. Morad emphasizes that he can forgive people but never forgets what they’ve done, and he’s learned to be more careful with who he trusts. He moves forward with purpose, never letting his guard down.

[Bridge]
In this short bridge, Morad questions where the people who claimed they’d be there for him are when he needs them the most. He’s specifically calling out those who promised to feed him when he was hungry or give their life for his. He asks where they are now, pointing out how they’ve disappeared just when he needs them. The “exit door” could symbolize their departure from his life, leaving him to fend for himself.

[Chorus]
This repetition of the chorus reinforces the same sense of abandonment and betrayal. Morad keeps questioning where those who promised loyalty and support have gone. He challenges the people who said they’d stand by him with actions like fists and bullets, yet he sees no one around when things get difficult. He reflects on how they used to criticize him and claim he was on the wrong path, but now he’s left with no answers. The repetition of these questions makes it clear that Morad feels abandoned by people who made big promises but didn’t come through when it mattered.
