Let It Be Clear

How is it possible that so many mouths are shut, so many eyes,
So many doors, so many minds in front of an unprecedented xenophobic act?
Presidents, ministers, chancellors, authorities, responsible parties.
Who will pay for the damage done to families? By a crazy jerk with no manners.

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.

I could never understand why they discriminated against him for his color.
How many years have passed, nothing has changed, everything stays the same.
Life goes on, time has never stopped in the era we live in, a time to reflect.
Let’s end this global plague before it’s too late
And our streets turn into rivers of blood,
And our children have nowhere to play, nowhere to play…

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.

He moved away from that place where his color was much more than just his color, it was his race.
Chasing a dream that disappeared, that merged and ended in a nightmare.

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.

Let me tell you this story that happened in the subway of Barcelona,
When that morning injustice and xenophobia joined hands,
Starring one of the ugliest scenes of racism.
In that car traveled an angel of a different color,
In his path stood that ignorant,
Who, knowing what he was doing, kept talking to his people.
He kicked the angel twice in the face, laughed at her without changing his gaze.
And he’s still out there, he’s still out there…

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.

Make a space with the power of words and the gift.
That’s what my text says, remember it.
That the light gave you, use it with grace and love.
That’s what my text says… let it be clear.
