Di Que No
Hoyo Colorao
Say No
For a while I've been seeing that this world is upside down,
people pay with their blood the price of life,
children cry,
because the hungry have no way out,
and they die under the fire of the 'promised land'.
The rich dividing the planet with cannon shots
with white supremacy at gunpoint.
Attacking bastions, religions, and prophets
in the name of a peace with a machine gun.
And they're televising what's happening,
bringing hatred to the corners of your home,
making a show with abuse and slaughter,
measuring the criminal rating of revenge.
Now that the world has changed,
that murderers want the people.
Now that they're attacking children with 'smarter' bombs.
Now that blood runs in the name of peace,
now that there's 'friendly fire'.
Now that the TV says all the poor are enemies.
Say no... War cannot continue.
Say no... Children should not die.
Say no... A 'No to war' brother,
joining our hands, let's dream of the future.
I thought it was Nintendo that I was seeing.
On my Panda screen, people were dying.
I saw a homeless person crying and a president lying,
the war starting, I saw a couple of bombs falling,
continents protesting, police repressing,
the stock market wavering and oil prices rising.
I saw a terrorist enjoying and five young people suffering,
an entire nation fighting, but another nation dying.
I saw the eyes of that child who the troops have killed,
for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Now that the world has changed,
that murderers want the people.
Now that they're attacking children with 'smarter' bombs.
Now that blood runs in the name of peace,
now that there's 'friendly fire'.
Now that the TV says all the poor are enemies.
Say no... War cannot continue.
Say no... Children should not die.
Say no... A 'No to war' brother,
joining our hands, let's dream of the future.
Conventions and treaties thrown down the drain,
commissions that have searched but not found.
Divided councils, a whole threatened nation.
I'm in front of the TV saturated
with ballots bought and sold in heaps,
with the manipulation of opinions.
Daddy's cowboy son who bought the elections.
I'm fed up with all this bullshit.
Say no, and stand with all those people
who want to fill the tank by sacrificing innocents.
Say no, because your kid could be
the one on the front page, this morning, shot dead.
Say no!
War cannot continue.
Say no... Children should not die.
Say no... A 'No to war' brother,
joining our hands, let's dream of the future.
Say no!
Say no!
Say no!
No!
