Ozomatli - Violeta (english Translation)
In a desert far away from you, I confessed
That everything I always believed, was a lie
I’m a brother, I’m a husband, son and father
I’m a warrior, and lots of blood overflows
Alone with my sorrow
Alone with my pain
I suffer from this condemnation
Away from you, never again
Violeta
I wanted to escape from this massacre
Just for you
But my life got overtaken by a bullet
And I lost
I was a brother, I was a husband, son and father
I was a soldier, and so much blood overflows
Alone with my sorrow
Alone with my pain
I suffer from this condemnation
Away from you, never again
Violeta
How could I do it
I wasn’t ever able to see it
It cracks the one who wins
Peace provides a fresh start
Today the decision
Is left for you
To give your own blood to die
And what does your mom say?
Your brother and your father,
What do they say?
Your son and your spouse, what do they say?
The hundreds of people, your grandma
Tell me what they say
People, what do they say?
The musicians of the world, what do they say?
From the front lines of the fight,
What do they say?
For the rights of the healers
Tell me what they say
That everything I always believed, was a lie
I’m a brother, I’m a husband, son and father
I’m a warrior, and lots of blood overflows
Alone with my sorrow
Alone with my pain
I suffer from this condemnation
Away from you, never again
