No Podemos Callar
Arelys Henao
We Can't Keep Quiet
You lift me up to heaven
And treat me like a queen
Then with your insults
You bring me back down
You tell me I'm your life
And also that I'm your owner
But I know that one of these days
You might even kill me
Because if you love me so much
You have to mistreat me
You always belittle me
And that causes me pain
But I'm already decided
And I'm ready to leave
I don't want you to kill me one day
And end up in jail
Women, let's not allow
Ourselves to be mistreated
Out of fear and love
We can't keep quiet
One can love deeply
But one must value oneself
Because a man is not the owner
Of your life and your integrity
I don't understand why there are men
Who mistreat their women
They unleash all their rage and many of them
End up dead
At the hands of their loves
Who give them much pleasure
And today I feel a lot of helplessness
And that's what hurts me the most
Women, let's not allow
Ourselves to be mistreated
Out of fear and love
We can't keep quiet
One can love deeply
But one must value oneself
Because a man is not the owner
Of your life and your integrity
Not just for some children
One has to endure
Because single women
Can also succeed
Women
