La Democracia
Mon Laferte
Democracy
You’re not to blame that money never stretches
You’re not to blame for the violence and the killings
That’s how the world welcomed us: With lots of bullets, little hope
I want everything to get better, to balance that scale
You’re not to blame that the poor get locked up
You’re not to blame that they burn forests for progress
And those on top take advantage, while justice goes up and down
They always have us by the neck, life on the edge of a knife
Someone explain to me what happened
(For democracy, democracy)
I got confused or someone lied to me
(Democracy, democracy)
Where did it go? Someone stole it
(Democracy, democracy)
Let’s grab some wine
(Democracy, democracy)
There I dyed it, so you can be fooled
You’re not to blame that they chase migrants
You’re not to blame for the massacre of students
From the promises and the flags, the knights fill their bellies
Here are some melodies and rhymes for revenge
Someone explain to me what happened
(For democracy, democracy)
I got confused or someone lied to me
(Democracy, democracy)
Where did it go? Someone stole it
(Democracy, democracy)
Let’s grab some wine
(Democracy, democracy)
Make a train, make a train
From this side and the other, dancing cumbia looks better
Make a train, make a train
From this side and the other, dancing cumbia looks better
Someone explain to me what happened
(For democracy, democracy)
I got confused or someone lied to me
(Democracy, democracy)
Where did it go? Someone stole it
(Democracy, democracy)
Let’s grab some wine
(Democracy, democracy)
