Better Than Myself

I don't want to be better than anyone
Maybe the same or less
I only want to be better than myself
Than myself

I only want to be better than myself

Than myself
 
I want to abandon my flaws
Not to do anyone harm
I want to enjoy my rights
And I won't give up on that, for anyone
 
Who failed
Who succeeded
I don't want to know
Who won
Who lost
 
I only want to be a litle bit better than myself

What Isn't Said

A thousand nations
Shaped my looks
My voice
I use it to say what isn't said
My country
Can only be judged by me
 
A thousand nations
Shaped my looks
My voice
I use it to say what isn't said
To be happy in what's vain, in what's sad, is a strength that lulls me
My country
Can only be judged by me
 
A thousand nations
Shaped my looks
My voice
I use it to say what isn't said
To be happy in what's vain, in what's sad, is a strength that lulls me
My country
Can only be judged by me
 
Why separate?
Why disunite?
Why only scream?
Why never listen?
Why deceive?
Why reprimand?
Why humiliate?
And lie so much?
Why deny
That hate is what shatters you?
My country
Can only be judged by me
 
My country...
 
A thousand nations
Shaped my looks
My voice
I use it to say what isn't said
To be happy in what's vain, in what's sad, is a strength that lulls me
My country
Can only be judged by me
 
Why explore?
Why destruct?
Why command?
Why coerce?
Why abuse?
Why delude?
And violent
To overwhelm us?
Why mess the floor of our own room?
 
Our country
Can only be judged by us
My country
Can only be judged by me
Our country
Can only be judged by us
Our country
Can only be judged by us

Inside Each Of Us

The woman inside each of us doesn't want any more silence
The woman inside me is tired of pretexts
The woman back home ran away from your texts
 
And she's coming out
From within each of us
The woman is coming out
And she's coming out
From within whoever you are
The woman is you
 
From within the face of those that have been slapped in life
From within the bag of the guy that butchered you and left you all bruised
From within that cornered girl that suffered so much and died unsheltered
From within that hurt boy that couldn't reach the exit door
 
And she's coming out
From within each of us
The woman is coming out
And she's coming out
From within whoever you are
The woman is you
 
The woman inside each of us doesn't want any more incest
The woman inside me has gotten tired of this time
The woman inside the cage has locked her executioner in
 
And she's coming out
From within each of us
The woman is coming out
And she's coming out
From within whoever you are
The woman is you
 
From within the car of the boy that hurt you and thought it was easy
From within the psychiatric ward, selling her health for nothing
From within that sweaty girl that sold her body to have another chance
From within that dead boy in the corner as he's different
 
And she's coming out
From within each of us
The woman is coming out
And she's coming out
From within whoever you are
The woman is you
It's me
The woman
It's me
It's me
The woman
It's me

Gosh

I make my own faith
I don't need anyone guiding me
I don't need anyone telling me what I can or can't do
 
I can tell you my faith by heart
I don't need anyone teaching me
That love is the deity that doesn't fit any religion

Gosh, gosh
Get away from me with your indoctrination
Gosh, gosh
I don't want feer giving me a sermon
Gosh, gosh
Your prayers lack acceptation
Gosh, gosh, gosh
 
I know the lie well
I don't need anyone pointing to me
The punishment that only serves to sell forgiveness
 
But I admit what I fear
This is the light that dims the limits
This people that looks up and stumble on the ground

The Meat

The cheapest cut on the market is black meat
5x
 
that goes with free shipping to prisons
and to plastic bags
that goes with free shipping to underemployment
and psychiatric asylums
 
The cheapest cut on the market is black meat
5x
 
that made and makes history
carrying this country on their backs
the brother here doesn't nurture rebellion
'cause the bullet's already chambered
and the avenger comes slowly
but with such good intentions
and this country
has everyone turning black
pushing back their hair
 
but through it all
I still hold the right
of some ancestor of this color of mine
to fight subtly for respect
to fight bravely for respect
to fight for justice and respect
of some ancestor of this color of mine
to fight, to fight, to fight
 
The cheapest cut on the market is black meat
5x
