Lyrics and translation Manny Montes - Ricky Y Manuel (Remix)

Ricky Y Manuel (Remix)

Son las 7 de la manana
Ricky y manuel en el punto
Pues desde pequenos ese ha sido su asunto
Pendiente de los clientes
En el primer q llega
Ganarse el dinero realizar la buena venta
Del ilegal negocio ellos 2 sobreviven
Sus ojos bien cerrados nada bueno ellos perciben
A esos de las 9 pasa un joven cristiano
Con reliciete rostro y le estrecha la mano
Le regala un tratado y le dice busquen a cristo
El muchacho se despide y continua su camino
Manuel rompe el tratado y prende un cigariillo
Pero ricky pensativo se lo echa al bolsillo

Son las 12 y deciden ir a su casa
Continua su trayecto a ver si algo nuevo pasa
Manuel llega y su madre le pregunta donde estaba
El le grita y le dice q eso no le interesaba

Ricky llega pensativo y cansado
Se sienta en un sillon y comienza a leer el tratado
El se preguntaba xq en sus ojos habia llanto
Era el toque y el poder del espiritu santo

(Coro)
Cual vas a tomar cual vas a escojer
El camino de ricky o el de manuel (bis)

Son las 6 de la tarde velven a lo mismo
Un pie en la tierra y otro en un abismo
Cuando de repente aparece aquel chamaco
El mismo que le habia regalado los tratados
Le pregunta q si a la iglesia quieren ir
Manuel dice q no pero ricky dice si
Manuel le dice a ricky para q yo voy a ir
Si el dinero no esta alla el dinero esta aqui

Llegan a la iglesia y ya estaban predicando
Y ricky bien atento a lo q estaban hablando
Hicieron un llamado el coro y no lo penso
Sintio el amor de cristo y le dio su corazon
Sintio un cambio en su vida
Y una paz impresionante
Se sentia mas q alegre
Era algo emocionante
Inmediatamente cuando se acabo el culto
Ricky se dirigio para el punto
A contarle a manuel lo q habia sucedido
Q esa misma noche el se habia convertido
Inmediatamente cuando al punto llega
Se detiene en una esquina una truper negra
Sacan unas armas de la ventana
Y se escuchan a lo lejos impactos de bala
No escapando de las balas
Quien alli ya esta muerto
Y salen las armas de su frio cuerpo

(Coro)

De su frio cuerpo salen las armas
Pero hay algo en esta triste historia q a mi me alarma
Es que manuel tuviendo al rey el no lo quizo
Ahora su alma sin esperanza ya se encuentra en el piso
Xq no lo quizo cojer yo no lo entiendo
Ahora su alma estara en el castigo eteno
Mientra el alma de ricky al cielo subia
Y ellos antes de irse una palabra se decian
MANUEL XQ NO QUISISTE IR CONMIGO
SI SOLAMENTE ERA UN RATITO
YA NO TE VOLVERE A VER HASTA NUNCA AMIGO
RICKY NO VEZ Q ME ESTOY QUEMANDO
POR FAVOR DAME LA MANO
POR FAVOR AYUDAME NO VEZ Q ME QUEMO

(Coro) 2bis

Ricky Y Manuel (Remix)

It's 7 in the morning
Ricky and Manuel on the point
Since they were little, that's been their business
Watching for customers
The first one to arrive
Making money, closing the sale
They survive on illegal business
Their eyes are tightly shut, they don't see anything good
Around 9 o'clock, a young Christian man passes by
With a reluctant face and shakes their hands
He gives them a pamphlet and says, "Seek Christ"
The boy says goodbye and continues on his way
Manuel tears apart the pamphlet and lights a cigarette
But Ricky, deep in thought, puts it in his pocket

It's 12 and they decide to go home
They continue on their journey to see if anything new happens
Manuel arrives and his mother asks him where he was
He yells at her and tells her that it's none of her business

Ricky arrives, thoughtful and tired
He sits on a couch and starts to read the pamphlet
He wondered why there were tears in his eyes
It was the touch and power of the Holy Spirit

(Chorus)
Which path will you take, which one will you choose
Ricky's or Manuel's (repeat)

It's 6 in the evening, they're back at the same thing
One foot on land and the other in the abyss
When suddenly, that kid shows up again
The same one who had given them the pamphlets
He asks them if they want to go to church
Manuel says no, but Ricky says yes
Manuel says to Ricky, "Why would I go there
The money's not there, the money's here"

They arrive at church and they're already preaching
And Ricky, all ears, listening to what they're saying
They make a call, the choir follows, and he doesn't think twice
He feels the love of Christ and gives Him his heart
He felt a change in his life
And an impressive peace
He felt more than happy
It was something exciting
As soon as the service ended
Ricky headed for the point
To tell Manuel what had happened
That that very night he had been converted
As soon as he gets to the point
He stops at a corner, a black truck
They pull out some weapons from the window
And gunshots can be heard in the distance
Unable to escape the bullets
Who is already dead there
And the weapons come out of his cold body

(Chorus)

Cold weapons come out of his body
But there's something in this sad story that alarms me
Is that Manuel, having the king, he didn't want him
Now his soul without hope is already on the ground
Because he didn't want to take it, I don't understand
Now his soul will be in eternal punishment
While Ricky's soul ascended to heaven
And before they left, they said a word to each other
MANUEL WHY DIDN'T YOU WANT TO COME WITH ME?
IF IT WAS ONLY FOR A SHORT WHILE
I WILL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN, MY FRIEND
RICKY, CAN'T YOU SEE I'M BURNING?
PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR HAND
PLEASE HELP ME, CAN'T YOU SEE I'M BURNING?

(Chorus) 2x
