the week before this great awakening

I got raped outside my homeland

criminal president dictates war camp

mutilations and deaths I saw from the cell phone

that bitter to be so far at a crucial moment

at that distance lacked effectiveness paws#39; help

a Mexican tour I decided to cancel

I bought tickets back with the savings pa fake#39; our house

of this social explosion

I came up with an idea that I thought was great

if no one was going to work, to the country to paralyze

destabilize the government mafia

so minutes before taking off

I locked myself in the bathroom, I recorded a video, I wanted to contribute

And for anxiety I explained myself wrong

It was that the change went home, not to stay home doing no!

Yes

active in marches, assembly and any activity

What sense would it have gotten and looked from my home?

I'm looking at it

to heal every intoxication that my society pours

Propacious cop beats and doesn't care

marching spiritual revolution

will erase pyramidal greed

my right to walk if it's six, nine or ten

new children deserve us standing

and all

We hit this new sun together

Eri fake#39; very care alien#39; raja pa outrage#39; call others badulaque

What's your contribution?

It's the top. Our conspiranoids?

Or is it that unconscious eyes don't look boycott?

forget the important thing for comfort

I am aware that empathy is a heroic gift

I know how hard it is not to judge the environment

Here I go, I absorb sun in slow motion

I don't spice, I'll rot

with my comfort zone* I cleaned my ass

I transform your dark, coarse monologue

and your inner self intuned a future joto

I cross your walls, I cry out the chapels

if you educate your health is very absurd to use masks

your plan is fast, false high-ends

to the people will apologize on their knees

my right to walk if it's six, nine or ten

new children deserve us standing

and all

We hit this new sun together

my right to walk if it's six, nine or ten

new children deserve us standing

and we all hit together this new sun

badulaque — fool / idiot

Badulaque is a colorful and somewhat old-fashioned Spanish slang term for a fool, idiot, or someone who is lazy and useless. It's not a word you hear every day, making it quite memorable.

In the song, Chystemc uses it to challenge someone's hypocrisy, asking, "Eri' muy care' raja pa' que llames badulaque a otros?" (You're too shameless to call others fools?). This highlights the word's use in a confrontational and critical context, adding a layer of social commentary to its meaning.

In "Neltume," Chystemc shares his personal experience and feelings during a significant social uprising in Chile. He was actually out of the country on tour in Mexico when the protests began, and he describes seeing "mutilaciones y muertes veía del celular" [mutilations and deaths I saw on my cell phone]. This made him feel a deep bitterness about being so far away at such an important time.

He felt a strong urge to contribute, so he canceled his tour, used his savings to buy a ticket home, and even recorded a video in an airplane bathroom to share his thoughts. He admits he explained himself poorly at first, but his message was that "el cambio parte por casa, no quedarse en casa haciendo ná!" [change starts at home, not staying at home doing nothing!]. He emphasizes his commitment to direct action, saying, "Lo mio es dar cara hasta ganar!" [My thing is to face it until we win!]. The song is a call for spiritual revolution to heal society's injustices and to stand up for the future generations, because "Nuevos niños nos merecen de pie" [New children deserve us standing up].
