GATO NEGRO

(I'm a black cat)

I'm going to do it my way
My heart screaming as it crosses the border
And reason that learns through blows to the face
What are we going to do if the shooting starts
And few are the ones who escape the every man for himself?

With the pen I tattoo over blood
I blend the status quo, I watch like an owl
Please, look at me well how I ooze
How I expel the pain to stay as pure as possible

I'm love climbing up the trees, up the marbles
The heat that climbs up the edges
How is it? Let's party
Even the angels come down from heaven when they get thirsty

That's why today I descend in search of water in the desert
From the plain to the height of the cement
I go from absolute noise to silent tomb
Without knowing if I inhabit paradise or transit the cemetery

The eyes that see me hide from me
Is my name cursed?
I shouldn't be a man anymore
What have I turned into?

I'm a black cat
I was distant and tired of the body
I stubbornly continue kissing my hell
I sweat the past and that's why I can't sleep

I'm a black cat
I was distant and tired of the body
I stubbornly continue kissing my hell
I sweat the past and that's why I can't sleep
(I'm a black cat)

My tongue calloused but I don't shut up
If what I say is a lie, let me be struck by lightning
To speak the truth, I don't need rehearsal, this time I explode
My body is on a plane but my soul is on horseback

My instinct is failing me
I can't get out of this vile maze
I already died, I revived, I'm a cursed cat
And I only have one life left to do it differently

The heart swaps begin
Who will exchange it for caviar and mussels?
Costume jewelry, fictional friendships
Everyone leaves their skin for a good jester's suit

And me? How to explain what I feel inside?
It's as if I carried a dead body in my belly
The desert covered my veins
Now my blood is sand making my body heavy

The eyes that see me hide from me
Is my name cursed?
I shouldn't be a man anymore
What have I turned into?

I'm a black cat
I was distant and tired of the body
I stubbornly continue kissing my hell
I sweat the past and that's why I can't sleep

I'm a black cat
I was distant and tired of the body
I stubbornly continue kissing my hell
I sweat the past and that's why I can't sleep
(I'm a black cat)

God, will He truly believe in me?
