Franco De Vita - No Basta = It's not Enough


It's not enough
To bring them into the world because it's obligatory,
Because they are the basis of marriage,
Or because you made a mistake in count.

It's not enough to take them to school to learn
Because life, gets harder
To be what your father couldn't be.

It's not enough
That you gave so very little affection
All because of your damned job, and the time.

It's not enough
Because when he wanted to talk about a problem
You told him, "Son, tomorrow. It's late,
I'm tired."

It's not enough
To buy him everything he ever wanted
The new car before graduation
So he'll live what you haven't lived.

It's not enoughto think yourself a great father
Because other people tell you
"Your kids lack nothing".

It's not enough
Because when he wanted to talk to you about sex
The color rose in your face
And you left.

It's not enough,
Because when having a problem,
He ended up buying on the corner
Whatever there was, whatever there was.

It's not enough
To buy him curious objects,
It's not enough,
when what he needs is love,
To learn the value of things,
Because you won't be eternal.

It's not enough
To punish him for being late,
If you haven't fallen, already your son is a man
now taller and stronger Than you, than you.

It's Not Enough (X6)

Nada Es Igual
