On the board, a pawn and a rook
A bishop, a knight that runs
On the back row there's a king that laughs and watches
The match is in his honor
White or black, they're red and blue
Centuries of weeping, mists, coffins
Faces to the sun hidden in clouds
Today is a holiday, we have to check the queen
That is still alive and smiling
We have to break the board
In exile the kings don't win the game, today
Today I'm of every woman and every man
Today is tomorrow on the tables of those grandparents
Today can be, must be the match
Pick pieces that give their lives
Today the queens also play
We must burn the castle and the flames that bring tomorrows
That bring, that bring tomorrows and new proclamations
We have to smash their chess once and for all
I'd give my life to challenge the king
Hand to hand on the beaten ground
Look, the king is always king
Everyone keeps being what they are
Like a gale that moves forward steady and elegant
And clearing the way at the front
Like a general, an elephant goes, an elephant goes
That spits blood at the leech and his inheritance
Because his clock has no patience anymore
Because there's a pawn that doesn't fear luck
That already knows life all filled with death
Today the queens also play
We must burn the castle and the flames that bring tomorrows
That bring, that bring tomorrows and new proclamations
We have to smash their chess once and for all
I'd give my life to challenge the king
Hand to hand on the beaten ground
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
A sword has been born, forged by each word
For every extra millennium that you were
Starving your peoples
We must choose forever and we move
Being a pawn isn't chosen
We've been saying it for a long time
Here we choose to take flight
Everyone keeps being what they are
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
Each piece that I capture will be one step less
I want to see that crown rolling across the board, and life
