No Somos Ciegos

Don't push, lady,
Get off at the next stop, neither are you a marchioness nor am I a wretch,
My generation tends to be kinder,
More criticizable but we don't listen to anyone,
When we lack affection it's like we lack air
We apologize, we thank,
We get out of trouble with more than just acrobatics,
We have caresses and greed, news that tell of misfortunes,
Drugs with prescription for sale in pharmacies.
We are like scientists or explorers
Always looking for what belongs to us,
A generation demands what it deserves,
Whether with reason or from the heart, we mess up when we feel like it.

And there are politicians who speak as if you owe them something, that pisses us off a lot
We learned to get from where there is none,
What you're looking for, I'll put it there, Javi said we had a great time
Other times we lose our enthusiasm for everything, but everything heals
We know that bitterness exists and takes its toll
The one that makes us lose our temper
When I'm sad, sometimes I cross out what I write
I think about what I say as if speaking to a child
I know there are kids saying I didn't do it because the lyricist said so
You learn from everything and what you don't know, go and touch it
And when someone does something for you, appreciate it
I give you my word said a rapper
We have something in common said a president to a liar
I do politics for the dissatisfied, I tell you
Tell the world my name, that's the debt you have with me

Friend, protect your honor like gold in cloth
Better to be a stranger than just one more in the herd
Better sport is sex than swimming and the rest is advertising with deceit
Where anyone sells you the idea
The same one who smiles in the photo
Doesn't seek your opinion, just your vote but
We are happier says a headline on the radio,
The earth is dying says a graffiti in the neighborhood

We are not blind, tell them
Where we see smoke there is fire
Comments when I arrive
Dirty little ego battles, be careful

We are not blind, tell them
Where we see smoke there is fire
Traps in the game
So many fake smiles later.

It's better to turn your head if you don't want to see us
Being a politician, maybe you're another corrupt in the government
I can be a drug dealer, a thief, or a sexy kitten
Who doesn't always kiss on the first date
There are people who are not worthy of what they have
From time to time I give alms and I feel good
When the child becomes a man, no one protects him
And the car or the apartment will cost you an arm and a leg
If happiness could be bought then money would be noble
The rich know it and even the poorest know it
But money doesn't fall from the sky
I make beautiful songs with what I find on the ground
You can't live on illusion if the passion I put into it is immeasurable
Again it's D.A.V.I.D. the kid, the hand that writes
The colleague claims to never give less than what he asks for
And she who wanted love, love I wanted to give her
I wasn't going to stop breathing because the wind might upset her
And so you left because I wanted to, you have to go
And abandon the ship if it starts to sink but
Save the children first,
Let the foreigner find his own way, cities are just anthills
What the cops don't see, the informants do
Models understand bullfighters and not poets

I'm just saying something while
My brothers behind me say yes
Now the challenge is for those who write chronicles
The pleasure is ours we say pimps and folkloric
I breathe the same air you breathe
My music is the window of a prison from where you look
And we are not so owners of our heads
Freeing yourself with rhythms, verses, and other skills
Life is a loan, this is not Sesame Street
But we know how to do it with this love
Enjoy life and the rest will come to you
That's what we mean when we say peace, buddy

We are not blind, tell them
Where we see smoke there is fire
Comments when I arrive
Dirty little ego battles, be careful

We are not blind, tell them
Where we see smoke there is fire
Traps in the game
So many fake smiles later.
