Prohibido Olvidar
Ricardo Montaner
Forbidden to Forget
God gave us life for free
God brought us here to play
If God gave us a mouth, it was to kiss
If God gave us arms, it was to embrace
God is thinking about retirement
God is tired and is leaving
He didn't give you feet to put your foot in it
He brought you here to be happy.
Chorus:
It is forbidden to forget
that we come from love
that the messiah is one and not two
that life is just a moment
that we must earn eternity
It is forbidden to forget
what freedom smells like
how to use patience as an arsenal
tolerance as a counterattack
as a decree of compassion
and love.
God proposes a forced strike
Hunger strike and protest
He will lock
the gates of heaven
and doesn't even want to talk about miracles.
Chorus:
It is forbidden to forget
that we come from love
that the messiah is one and not two
that life is just a moment
that we must earn eternity
It is forbidden to forget
what freedom smells like
how to use patience as an arsenal
tolerance as a counterattack
as a decree of compassion
What's the point of thirst
if you're going to kill me
I give my life in exchange for peace.
There's no need to betray
or lie or fail
because in the end you'll have to pay.
