No me interesa

I was born in the perfect latitude
where the sun toasts and the rain refreshes
from dawn to dusk
it's an ideal environment to sweat out all the bad.
I was born in grateful land
where almost everything you throw grows
and I can say that on the island
even those who have nothing can feed themselves.

Here in the land of poets
those who don't know it make it up
we are simple people with tools.
Our capacity is not to be doubted.
And I can't stand the idea
that we always fall for your strategy (no more)
you dress in benevolence
but you're not about giving, you're about hoarding.

And I won't go on, I'm not interested
in your supposed federal aid
I'm not interested, it's not real
your war, no, no
I'm not interested
it's just an excuse to conquer
without looking bad and
I'm not interested, no
in your idea of development
I'm not interested
I say I'm an islander and that's not my thing
I'm not interested, no
your wealth, no, I'm not interested
because it's based on material lust,
nothing cultural and I'm not interested, no...

Today on the whole island
family businesses are going bankrupt;
we buy everything in megastores
that grow from exploiting natives in Nepal,
in Malaysia and Mongolia and Taiwan
which is already the most notorious.
They mock the workforce
with pay that here borders on the immoral.
And of course it doesn't matter if it happens
far from home far from luxury cars,
your mega-viewer and your social position.

But I won't go on
I'm not interested
in your fast food culture
I'm not interested, it's not real
if it doesn't nourish, no, no
I'm not interested
with ingredients
you can't even pronounce
I'm not interested, no.
Your speech, an absurdity, I'm not interested
even if your people applaud you, I don't believe in you
I'm not interested in being like that
inhuman, a worm
I'm not interested in being like you
living without common respect
I'm not interested, no..

p.s.
Culture doesn't hesitate
and we are not a flag of any party
we come to speak clearly wherever
it's resist or give in to cook (and no)
nothing to do with it, don't believe
we have a thousand dreams of revolution left
it's been a hundred and seven years of strategy
but those who raised us taught us to dream
and nothing, nothing, nothing about you interests me
I don't believe in you, nor in your intention
nothing about you interests me
neither your wealth, no, nor your war
I'm not interested, we dream of another level
