Hace Falta Soñar

Today I woke up smiling
I looked out the window
I looked at various looks on various faces and I looked
I asked about faith, they asked me in what
I answered in you, they answered it's gone
Today I woke up smiling and

I wondered what it takes for
Everyone out there to smile and be happy
Until on a sidewalk I saw the face
Of an old lady who they mistook for my grandmother
If they cleaned her up (and it's because)

A thousand questions invaded me without answers (the simplest one was)
If there's a just God, why does this have to happen?
It was then when I wanted to write proposals (simply me)
I wanted to write my dreaming or whatever you want to call it, my thinking
And dreaming is so easy, it's free, imagination flies
Thinking that a warplane costs more than building a school
Where they could have educated Venezuelan children
Who nowadays are criminals or prostitutes

Millions are spent on campaigns daily
With a quarter of that they would build the hospital in my neighborhood
Where, my brother could have been saved
Died by a worm like the one narrated in my previous comment
Because instead of loving we divide this land
With borders that make us drift apart
We unite under the same flag
And so everyone would

Choose the same, the same God to worship
The same language to speak
And dreaming is so easy, it's free
Just take a moment to think about how much food
You could buy for a hungry person
Selling one of the jewels worn
By the elected pope at events
All saints of course
Contraceptives are prohibited

By a church that doesn't appreciate the number of AIDS deaths
Whose cure has not been found
Although the priority is to find life in space
A thousand answers invaded my questions (the simplest one was)
We can but we don't want to change
That before blaming others
We must first start
By learning to evaluate

Accept what's wrong and change
Today I almost went to bed upset
And I asked the pillow
If everything I dreamed and dreamed will be useless
But I realized that we haven't changed because

We don't have faith in ourselves
Today I went to bed smiling and
I wondered what it takes for
Everyone out there to smile in the morning
But I realized that in reality nothing is missing
Just to regain faith and motivation
I ask

Where the hell have our dreams gone? (listen people)
Without dreaming we will never be able to change
I know success is achieved with effort
But sometimes too

Dreaming is necessary
Dreaming is necessary
Dreaming is necessary
