Aunque Digan Que No
Shaila
Even If They Say No
Someone stole your voice, your faith, and your freedom
Even if they say no
You no longer choose. There’s no God, nor does his sad fairness exist
Even if they say no
Listen to me well, I just aspire to be free (even if they say no)
to give it all and spread these wings and drink from the truth (even if they say no)
that it’s not over there, that it’s better to stay quiet and accept
And so they shot an innocent in times of peace (even if they say no)
His crime was hunger and his bet to change (even if they say no)
Listen to me well, I just aspire to be free (even if they say no)
to give it all and spread these wings and drink from the truth (even if they say no)
that it’s not over there
Be the voice, the thirst, the faith, the breath, and the will of a shout to ten or a hundred deaf
and drink from the violent salt of your freedom
even if they say no, that you shouldn’t, that you don’t know, that it’s not, or that you can’t see it
even if they say no, that you don’t understand, that you shouldn’t search, that later or that it’s somewhere else
even if they say no, keep going until you find your truth...
