Pólvora
Jay F. (MusicRap)
Gunpowder
There was a lot that I didn't know as a child
I don't know if out of ignorance or innocence
Now that I put on my shoes I realize
That I grew up in a sea of corruption, chaos, and violence
For you we remain here
In a mousetrap that triggers when you leave
We live off scraps without a decent salary
While the party campaign goes by singing the anthem
They say that at some point in our lives we were at the same level, but I don't believe that
The little boy who can barely afford a notebook has to live in fear bullied at recess
They try to deceive me with their false ideology
How good that they have a good education system
If the people who follow them to their soul would give them
But the quota always has an expiration date
Cause you want it all on a silver platter
Your mommy and your daddy couldn't make this better
You can't even pay your way, out of this pressure
You want it all on a silver platter
Dressed in red like some hierarchs, like all the blood they shed for the people
That way of manipulating your psyche, making sure, so we don't do it again
Those of us down here, we repudiate those above
While we struggle, they live the high life
What do they know about enduring whole nights without food
And that due to all the impotence in this game they commit suicide, nah
I don't care to be very harsh, the only thing certain is that my future will be quite uncertain
Word spreads fast, the walls are small
What you gained in 10 years is taken away in seconds
I show you the other side, of course paradise is perfect if the clouds separate us
The decisive day when the alarms go off
Everyone will learn even if the streets burn
Cause you want it all on a silver platter
Your mommy and your daddy couldn't make this better
You can't even pay your way, out of this pressure
You want it all on a silver platter
They want peace
But they always ignore what they leave behind
If one day they abandon you, don't come to talk to me
It's very evident and soon you'll see it
You'll see it, mmm
No, no more
I stopped being just another victim
Gunpowder became my obsession
I don't mind becoming an enemy of half the nation
Cause you want it all on a silver platter
Your mommy and your daddy couldn't make this better
You can't even pay your way, out of this pressure
You want it all on a silver platter
