Como La Cigarra (La Cigarra) (part. León Gieco)

Renato Teixeira Renato Teixeira

Like the Grasshopper (The Grasshopper) (feat. León Gieco)

So many times they killed me
So many times I died
But now I'm here
Rising again

I thank my fate
And that hand with a dagger
Because it hurt me so bad
And I kept on singing

Singing to the sun
Like a cicada
After a year underground
Just like a survivor
Returning from war

So many times they pushed me away
So many times I reappeared
And for all that I lived
I lived crying

But after all that weeping
I slowly realized
That my dream has no owner
And I kept on singing

Singing to the sun
Like a cicada
After a year underground
Just like a survivor
Returning from war

So many times they killed you
So many times you'll rise again
So many nights you'll spend
Despairing

But in the moment of shipwreck
In the moment of darkness
Someone will rescue you
To keep on singing

Singing to the sun
Like a cicada
After a year underground
Just like a survivor
Returning from war
