About Vida

"Vida" is a latin pop song by Guatemalan recording artist Ricardo Arjona, released on 7 December 2010 as the second single from his twelfth studio album, Poquita Ropa (2010). The song was written by Arjona, who produced it with longtime collaborators Dan Warner and Lee Levin under their stage name Los Gringos. The song is considered to be an autobiographical song for the singer, and its lyrics are based on "matters of identity". An accompanying music video for "Vida" was released in November 2010. It was directed by Joaquín Cambré and filmed in Mexico, and "represent[s] that mix of feelings crafting an ambience of hope inside of a story that inetivably has a tragic end." The video was used as part of the feature film Poquita Ropa — Una Historia Apasionada as well as on Arjona's Metamorfosis World Tour. As of 28 July 2012, the video has reached 3.9 million views on YouTube. more »

Yo nací de amor  y comadrona
En la misma cama de mama
Por una cuestión de cromosomas
Fui el varón que quiso mi papa.

Mi viejo era el profe de la escuela
Mi mama el sargento del lugar
Yo era su boceto en acuarela
El tercero y último en llegar.

Vi tantas lunas
Que hoy ya no se si soy o fui
Tantas vacunas
Para lograr sobrevivir.

Aprendí a correr una mañana
Antes de aprender a  caminar
Un teniente entro por la ventana
Y a todos nos dio por escapar.

Brasil fue campeón en el `70
Y en la radio Pol decía ei you
El gol de pele en cámara lenta
Y el cigarro entraba en el menú

Vi tantas lunas
Que hoy ya no se si soy o fui
Tantas vacunas
Para lograr sobrevivir.

Conocí el amor con la vecina
Y también alguna enfermedad
El doctor mandó penicilina
El amor cobró con soledad

Fui maestro y fui universitario
Golfo, cara dura y sobrador
Mientras el cabrón del calendario
No te hace jamás ningún favor.

Vi tantas lunas
Que hoy ya no se si soy o fui
Tantas vacunas
Para lograr sobrevivir.

Le pongo play a mi cerebro
Para ver lo que un día fui
Vida
Porque se acabara la vida
Te ves jugando a la escondida
Y al voltear preguntas
Vida
Porque caucara la vida
Aprendes a decir  que tal
Y despedida y dices
Vida
Porque se acabara la vida
Te ves jugando a la escondida
Y al voltear preguntas
Vida
Porque caucara la vida
Aprendes a decir  que tal
Y despedida y gritas
Vida

Recibí el 2000 con pirotecnia
Ya no rento ni padezco soledad
Desde el parto ya comparto la epidemia
De este síndrome de la caducidad
