Um Corpo No Mundo
Luedji Luna
A Body in the World
I crossed the sea
A South American sun guides me
Carrying a carry-on
Inside a prayer
A goodbye
I am a body
A being
A single body
Has color, has cut
And the story of my place
I am my own vessel
I am my own fate
And I am here, even if they don't want it
I am here, even if I don't want it anymore
I am here now
Every street in this gray city is me
White gazes stare at me
There's danger on the corners
And I speak more than three languages
And the word love, where is it?
I am here, even if they don't want it
I am here, even if I don't want it anymore
I am here now
I am here
And the word love, where is it?
