The Backward Elite
Sunup in a post-war scenario
A hundred years summed up in hatred of our own
To assail and sell us
Our roots turned into a hostile foe
Through a colossal fraud that opened all the doors
For the undying us-against-us!
The dominant sense saying we’re low
The elite just gains more
Our slavery hasn’t gone away
The ball and chain have morphed
The face is new, the model is the same and it says
You’re not allowed
To anything more
Than what you’re bound to
Your wants will be never relevant
Since you were born you’ve learned it but you're defenseless
Our beliefs were built to give you a life that’s exploited and ruined
All our minds, stolen
The racist’s victory left so many of us stunned (shock!)
But all he brings was here but hidden for so long
Prey of the same lore
A nation built on hatred and scorn
The latent will to harm and demean all the helpless
Is crying from the pyramid's top
The elite’s mouth is yelling out
"Hey, yellow-shirts, c'mon!"
All fascist-moralists’ rage and choler for the rabble on slums
One more time
Our real heritage to the fore
No, no, no!
We tear your vote
Do what you’re bound to
And whatever happens after
Since this blatant looting was always the sole end
We will be ill and hearing their laughter
God, we are all just slaves in this game
Our lives, just exploited and ruined
All our wealth, stolen
There’s some relief
Advancement
A coup coming
One more coup comes
A coup coming
One more coup comes
A coup coming
One more coup comes
A coup coming
One more coup comes
One more coup coming
One more coup comes
One more coup coming
One more coup comes
We need to rise
We gotta free ourselves from the lies
Or run toward one more century
With this pain that never stops
Oh
Poisoned by the airwaves
Continuously stunned
Unable to clarify the cause
Gone
And going until nothing lasts
Would you sell your life?
And we’re waiting here forever
For how long we’ll be slaves in this game?
Our lives, just exploited and ruined
All our wealth
La élite al revés
Amanecer en un escenario de posguerra
Cien años resumidos en odio hacia los nuestros
Para asaltar y vendernos
Nuestras raíces convertidas en un enemigo hostil
A través de un fraude colosal que abrió todas las puertas
¡Para el eterno nosotros contra nosotros mismos!
El sentido dominante diciendo que somos inferiores
La élite solo gana más
Nuestra esclavitud no ha desaparecido
La bola y la cadena se han transformado
El rostro es nuevo, el modelo es el mismo y dice
No se te permite
Nada más
Que lo que estás obligado a hacer
Tus deseos nunca serán relevantes
Desde que naciste lo aprendiste pero estásin defensa
Nuestras creencias fueron construidas para darte una vida explotada y arruinada
Todas nuestras mentes, robadas
La victoria racista dejó a muchos de nosotros atónitos (¡shock!)
Pero todo lo que trae estaba aquí pero oculto por tanto tiempo
Presas de la misma leyenda
Una nación construida en odio y desprecio
La voluntad latente de dañar y menospreciar a todos los desamparados
Está gritando desde la cima de la pirámide
La boca de la élite está gritando
