Bandera Negra

My only virtue and defect is being imperfect
My tongue a double-edged knife in your ear
In this life and the previous one, I am a guerrilla
They kill me but I reappear on this earth
I came to avenge with words all the dead
I prefer to sing a song at funerals
I came to stain your wall with my cry of hope
Silent throats I will cut in one slice

I fight against the power that colonizes minds
I don't spit bullets but irreverent words
Holy are the substances that keep me awake
Holy are the plants that feed my spirit
My rap is not feminine, only feminist
I don't seek power because I am an anarchist

I don't want to dominate you, I am an artist
My words bewitch you because I am a spiritualist
The magic of music runs through my veins
My chest a drum, my pulse a song without sorrow
The wings of my mind take me wherever I want
I am light and darkness, but my flag is black
My flag is black

My rap is not good because it's feminine
Don't put those damn prejudices on my art
On stage with heels, not because I'm a piece of ass
I like to look pretty when I sing into the mic
To be tough, I don't need more testosterone
Danger that my estrogen is crushing balls
I have millions of balls in each ovary
It doesn't make me more of a woman, nor does it make you less of a man

My rap is not feminine, only feminist
I don't seek power because I am an anarchist
I don't want to dominate you, I am an artist
My words bewitch you because I am a spiritualist
The magic of music runs through my veins
My chest a drum, my pulse a song without sorrow
The wings of my mind take me wherever I want
I am light and darkness, but my flag is black

I don't want your respect just for wearing a skirt
Don't insult me because I've never been a lady
Recognize a poet when you hear one
Don't judge me just by my pretty cover
My rap is not feminine, only feminist
I don't seek power because I am an anarchist

I don't want to dominate you, I am an artist
My words bewitch you because I am a spiritualist
The magic of music runs through my veins
My chest a drum, my pulse a song without sorrow
The wings of my mind take me wherever I want
I am light and darkness, but my flag is black
