Todas Las Luchas

All struggles start in the heart
But ours is not about emotion
It has roots planted in pain
Of those who stay silent because fear stole their voice

All hours are counted with a clock
But ours turned into a crab
From the setback, it foolishly got addicted
It passes and can't find the tick-tock it lost yesterday

I'm told the sun doesn't rise today because it's scared
That from the north to the south, cries of war are heard
The blond country of stripes, stars
Is afraid its harvest of
Sold-out politicians, bastards
Corrupt, thieves, cowards
Bullies, dissidents
Just like some presidents
More screwed up than screwing

All dreams can make us fly
But the earth is where the need
Makes a man kneel before an altar
Hoping for a piece of bread to fall

They think the people's outcry
Has been silenced, it will never return
Wait seated, very soon they'll see
When they have to kneel before the poor
To ask for forgiveness, beg for forgiveness

I'm told the sun rose today brighter
They tell me the sea roared almost untamable
Because down south, the powerful are taught
That freedom is not a need of a few

It's an: Inalienable, irreplaceable right
Unbreakable, inexhaustible
Much less is it weak, avoidable
Squeezable, purchasable, payable, inalienable I said
Much less is it sellable

Today we sing here for freedom
Today we sing here for America
In the land of Francisco Morazán
From here, we sing for peace
