Ni Dios Ni Amo

Los Muertos de Cristo's song 'Ni Dios Ni Amo' is a powerful anthem of anarchism and rebellion against established systems of power. The lyrics express a vehement rejection of both religious and governmental authority, encapsulated in the repeated chorus 'ni dios, ni dios, ni amo' (neither god, nor master). This phrase underscores the band's commitment to anarchist principles, advocating for a society free from hierarchical control and exploitation.

The song critiques the state and its mechanisms of control, portraying them as tools of oppression used by a privileged few to maintain their wealth and power. The lyrics 'enemigos del estado' (enemies of the state) and 'no queremos nuestras leyes ni tampoco ser explotados' (we don't want your laws nor to be exploited) highlight the band's disdain for the legal and economic systems that perpetuate inequality. The reference to 'un grupo de vagos que mandas a trabajar para hacerlos millonarios' (a group of slackers you send to work to make them millionaires) further emphasizes the exploitation inherent in capitalist structures.

The song also touches on the manipulation of information and the vilification of those who fight for social justice. The lines 'los que luchan por el pueblo asesinados en silencio, camuflando la noticia para llamarnos terroristas' (those who fight for the people are silently murdered, disguising the news to call us terrorists) suggest a media complicit in maintaining the status quo by demonizing activists. This theme of resistance is reinforced in the call to action: 'lanza una piedra y empuña las manos, escupe tu odio contra el tirano' (throw a stone and clench your fists, spit your hatred against the tyrant).

'Ni Dios Ni Amo' is not just a song but a rallying cry for those who seek to challenge and dismantle oppressive systems. It embodies the spirit of defiance and the desire for a world where people are not subjugated by religious or political authorities, but instead live in a society based on mutual respect and equality.
