Atrapados En Azul
Ismael Serrano
Trapped In Blue
Twenty years ago you lived trapped in the gray,
another time, another color,
and they were waiting for you impatiently at home,
they had taken you and no one knew if you would come today.
Time has passed, things have changed,
maybe the air is better,
but we run ahead of the same,
over time, some did not age.
We live trapped in blue,
trapped in blue,
trapped in blue,
they protect me from you, who will protect me from them?
Trapped in blue,
trapped in blue.
By day in uniform, by night in hoods,
they enforce the same law.
It will rain toads and snakes, it will rain stones,
and then you will wonder why.
Whether you're red, black, or Chinese,
or if you were too clever, you will learn your lesson.
The cameras never capture what happens in the cell,
between one van and another.
And we live trapped in blue,
(mother, worry),
trapped in blue,
(if they catch your son),
trapped in blue,
they protect me from you, who will protect me from them?
Trapped in blue,
trapped in blue,
trapped in blue,
(go get them),
trapped in blue,
(fear them),
trapped in blue,
they protect me from you, who will protect me from them?
Trapped in blue,
trapped in blue.
