Not Slaves Lyrics by Ele

2016

[Lyrics/Letra "Not Slaves" ft. Nach]
[Verse 1: Ele]
We are expected to do nothing
To live our lives wearin ourselves out
But we're like fire, they try to fade out
Don't drown it all in dirt
Wake up from this lethargy that's trampling on us
And raise your head up high, we just live once
[Chorus: Ele]
I'm not for sale, not slave
I'm worth more than gold
I don't belong to that world
I'll be free
Uh uh uh
[Verso 2: Nach]
Si has agachado la cabeza y las manos taparon tu cara
Si la frustración dispara y te escucha el Diablo
Si has cortado maleza avanzando, notando arcadas
Si la tentación te ampara, sabes de qué hablo
El látigo eterno, el ruido, la prisa, el informe
Las cimas enormes del hombre moderno y deforme
Enfermo y demente, no soy diferente, lo intento
Mi correa es un tic-tac me agita por dentro
Sé que corro, me ganan; la boca reseca y jaqueca
Mi mueca temprana sin ganas y el alma tan hueca
Lo siento, pidiendo disculpas no hay tiempo
Ni vivo ni muerto, yo sólo obedezco al sargento
Y danza la vida, la esperanza hundida como el Nautilus
La muerte avanza, si os alcanza rendiros
Caminos circulares, montañas y mares perdidos
Y en todos los lugares hay un virus
Os pido, dejar de ser hienas, ser como delfines
No cometer el crimen de no hacer lo que un día quisimos
Tú jamás asesines a seres queridos
Y el niño que siempre habías sido con esos olvidos
Decido, ser libre un instante
Sangrar mis derrotas y errores
Ser mil supernovas que explotan, ver brotar mis flores
Ser una gaviota en el mar, un sueño en su árbol
El tiempo se agota, por eso sólo importa amarnos
Y así reanimar el silencio que otros dejaron
El mundo es de aquellos alumnos que nunca encajaron
Que no esperaron dentro de un salón anclado al recuerdo
Que no fueron siervos de un sueldo y se revelaron
Hoy quiero nadar dónde cubra, si el cielo se nubla
No dejaré que mi propio miedo me descubra
Ahora quiero salir y vivir sin temor, sin humo
Empezar a correr a ese lugar que no es ninguno y ser libre
Y ser libre (y ser libre)
[Chorus: Ele]
I'm not for sale, not slave
I'm worth more than gold
I don't belong to that world
I'll be free
Uh uh uh
