Tú no tienes la culpa de que la plata a nadie le alcanza

Tú no tienes la culpa de la violencia y de la matanza

Así el mundo nos recibió
This is how the world welcomed us
Con muchas balas, poca esperanza

Quiero que todo sea mejor
I want everything to be better
Que se equilibre esa balanza
Let that balance be balanced
Tú no tienes la culpa de que a los pobres los lleven presos

Tú no tienes la culpa que quemen bosques por el progreso

Y los de arriba sacan ventaja

Y la justicia que sube y baja

Nos tienen siempre la soga al cuello

La vida al filo de una navaja

Que alguien me explique lo que pasó

(Por la democracia, la democracia)

De las promesas y las banderas

Los caballeros se llenan la panza

Aquí te van unas melodías
Here are some melodies
Y algunas rimas pa la venganza
