Aldito el gusanito

I would be a worm
if I took advantage
of a supposed position
and stole from my people
if I repressed and stayed silent
to a whole generation
and cut off at the root
the wings of their imagination
I would be a worm
if I hit without reason
the young Cubans
after selling them rum
if I spoke of revolution
and violated rights
and changed the rules
for my own convenience
I would be a worm
if I pretended to be happy
and then went to Miami
to talk shit about my country
if I diverted money
from my homeland to a bank
if I hit these hands
every year the Ladies in White
I would be a worm
if I put 6 channels
where the reality of this society
doesn't come out on any
if I didn't let anyone
raise their head
and if I cut off the head
of those who think too much
I would be a worm
if I went against
I would give unnecessary kicks
if then I put the people
as if they were the ones who attacked
when in truth they are police
dressed in civilian clothes
I would be a worm
if I had forced
thousands of Cubans
to die drowned
if I had only worried
about bringing Elian
and those who didn't survive
who brings them, Superman
I would be a worm
if I kept quiet about what I feel
if I were part of that empty
art that is being made
if I acted blind
if I played along
and didn't say that my commander
is Camilo Cienfuegos

WE ARE THE LIGHT THAT SHOWED US ANOTHER WAY
THE VOICE OF A YOUTH TIRED OF LIES
PEOPLE FEEL WHAT I'M FEELING
HAVANA DOESN'T FIT IN GUANABACOA
OR WAS IN 100 AND ALDABOO
NO, HERE THE CRAZY ONES ARE YOU
WHO ONLY MOVE YOUR FINGERS TO POINT AT US
DON'T CROSS YOUR ARMS
DON'T JUST SIT THERE
HAVE SOME CHOCOLATE AND PAY WHAT YOU OWE

I would be a worm
IF I GOT INTO THAT
of speaking ill
of the state for 4 pesos
the things I've said or done
are what I think
and none of you can put me in jail
for that
I would be a worm
if I didn't want to see
a large mass of young people
who want to be born for this
if I didn't listen to the majority's opinion
to please the media and the bourgeoisie
and now we can enter hotels
we can openly say
what hurts us
but it's not because we're becoming more sensitive
it seems that the foreign press
is bothering
I would be a worm or as they call me crazy
if I reflected a lot and resolved little
if someone asked me
why you can't travel
I would answer because so many
planes in the sky can crash
from the anti-Cuban mafia naaa
I defend what I love and I love rap
besides when has a worm been seen
that doesn't crawl
that raises its voice
and sings for a better world
that's where they get lost
and don't find the reason
I am the voice of this nation
not the voice of the opposition
let hope come
pass and let me dream
that the patriotic squad
holds a concert at the Carlos Marx
I would be a worm
if I didn't shake hands
with my brothers
and didn't fight for a healthier human
if I didn't care
about Cuban hip hop
I would be a worm
if I censored Los Aldeanos

WE ARE THE LIGHT THAT SHOWED US ANOTHER WAY
THE VOICE OF A YOUTH TIRED OF LIES
PEOPLE FEEL WHAT I'M FEELING
HAVANA DOESN'T FIT IN GUANABACOA
OR WAS IN 100 AND ALDABOO
NO, HERE THE CRAZY ONES ARE YOU
WHO ONLY MOVE YOUR FINGERS TO POINT AT US
DON'T CROSS YOUR ARMS
DON'T JUST SIT THERE
HAVE SOME CHOCOLATE AND PAY WHAT YOU OWE

really you know
what is the reason
why I was inspired
and wrote this song
no organ sends me
nor a constitution
I only receive orders
from my heart
now I am the worm
because I said what I think
the one who stayed silent out of fear
I tell you without fear
that tactic didn't work
you are the worms
and the womb that bore you
don't confuse me or get rough with me
because the hand that hits me in the face
I swear I'll spit on it
and after I spit on it
I'll sit back and watch as with time everyone will fall

I don't want to be a leader of anything
nor do I want anyone to change places
all I want
is to be understood and respected
this proposes a revolution of thoughts
or an operation to recover feelings
does madness resemble sincerity
or is sanity synonymous with fear
I leave that task to you
gusano is you, my brother
stop the lack of respect
