When I heard this song, it made me connect with my roots... Andalusia, Spain. While keeping the soul of the original song, I wanted the pulse of flamenco to run through it, adapting the lyrics to Spanish. This cover is a tribute to my homeland and to the music that also flows through my veins.

I hope you like it.

"Montaña, Río, Océano"

[Verse 1]
Por rutas que no acaban voy,
intento alcanzar la cumbre hoy,
ser lo mejor de lo que soy,
ver hasta donde alcance a ver.

[Verse 2]
Tiento unas piedras: se deshacen,
el cielo espesa, plomo y gris;
la cumbre aún queda tan distante,
se vuelve y corre lejos de mí.

[Chorus]
Montaña, río, océano,
la gravedad en movimiento.
Me estiro, caigo, duele en mí,
y no sé si debo seguir.

[Verse 3]
Y al derretirse ya la nieve,
un hilo de agua nace leve;
lo sigo y miro cómo crece,
a ver adónde me ha de llevar.

[Verse 4]
El río fluye, yo me dejo,
bajamos juntos con apremio;
ruego: llévame a lo que anhelo,
pero me arroja al mar, sin más.

[Chorus]
Montaña, río, océano,
la gravedad en movimiento.
Subí tan alto y caí tan bajo,
preguntándome a dónde voy.

[Verse 5]
Con la marea rompen olas,
me lanzan de una a otra zona;
me opongo al tiro, nado, intento,
no sé adónde me llevará.

[Verse 6]
Las olas y yo ya nos mezclamos;
dejo de ser rival: azul hermano.
Nuestro compás no tiene final,
el océano fluye en mí.

[Final Chorus]
Montaña, río, océano,
la gravedad en movimiento.
Lo alto y bajo vienen y van,
solo me queda dejarme llevar.

Mountain, River, Ocean

[Verse 1]
On endless roads I travel,
trying to reach the summit today,
to be the best version of myself,
to see as far as I can see.

[Verse 2]
I test some stones: they crumble,
the sky thickens, leaden and grey;
the summit remains so distant,
it turns and runs away from me.

[Chorus]
Mountain, river, ocean,
gravity in motion.
I stretch, I fall, it hurts within,
and I don't know if I should go on.

[Verse 3]
And as the snow begins to melt,
a gentle thread of water is born;
I follow it and watch it grow,
to see where it will lead me.

[Verse 4]
The river flows, I let myself go,
we rush downward together;
I pray: take me to what I long for,
but it just throws me into the sea.

[Chorus]
Mountain, river, ocean,
gravity in motion.
I climbed so high and fell so low,
wondering where I'm meant to go.

[Verse 5]
With the tide, the waves break,
tossing me from one place to another;
I fight the pull, I swim, I try,
not knowing where it will take me.

[Verse 6]
The waves and I now blend as one;
no longer a rival: a brother in blue.
Our rhythm has no end,
the ocean flows within me.

[Final Chorus]
Mountain, river, ocean,
gravity in motion.
The highs and lows come and go,
all that's left is to let go.
