Ohne mich
- The Onkelz always had to justify themselves. The message of this song is that extremism (right-wing or left-wing) cannot be the right way.
Matapalo - Parte Dos
- This instrumental is the continuation of the intro. It begins again with a message from Pozo and ends in instrumental sound. The message is:
- "Tu puedes arriesgarlo todo por algo, que incluso no entiendes cuando lo tienes. Algunos piensan que pueden medirte por tus enemigos. Si fuese así, respetados debemos ser"
- "You can risk it all for something you don't even realize you have. Some think you can be judged from your enemies. If that is so, we should be respected."
