The Borbóns Are Crooks
To rap is not a crimeThe weak go to prison, the poorest ones, isn't that so?
Patriots hiding riches in Geneva1
Here go Sofía and Leonor2, commoners to the other side of the rope
I cannot imagine anything that would fit the monarchy better than a condom
To tell who they are and what they do is a crime
Look at the case of Valtònyc3, I'm just stating facts
The poor speak out and go to prison, the rich laugh
Freedom of expression, shout it loudly
The sudden slap of that one living in Torrejón
Has turned the facade and the Borbón4 crown red
Shame on you for allowing falsehood into the laws
And for striking down the truth with the punishment of confinement
It's simple: we disobey because we believe that change is possible
They would want us all in a line for a clear shot
To resist like a child on the streets of Syria would
Insomnia when the reality pinches you
We need scratches, we need graffiti
We need people who would never bend over
We need the will to jump over the potholes
I don't dream of Versace, but of roadblocks
The legitimate State to the heir of Franco5
On your terms and in your game, the bank is always the winner
Proletarian support for the neighbourhoods of Madrid
Granddaughters of guerrillas in the Civil War6
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
MOVING INTO POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RUMBLE
THE BORBONES ARE CROOKS
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
WE'RE TAKING POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RESONATE
NEITHER JUDGES, NOR PROSECUTORS, NOR BORBONES
The poor go to prison, not princess Cristina7
But half of the country wants her on the guillotine
The King doesn't even speak properly 'Why don't you shut up?'8
But a scoundrel like that won't shut my mouth
For the lost war of our grandmothers
For the poetry that's still sleeping in the gutter
We'll take the streets Black Block style9
We'll occupy Marivent Palace 10 with a Kalashnikov. Fire!
They laugh at their impunity from a chalet in Switzerland
Imagine drunkenly saying 'The people chose me'
With his posh lover, he recalls hunting elephants
While hunger is rising and there's no justice hunting him
We need love for the oppressed
We need a lot of hate for those who committed genocide
We need action against harmful companies
And militant posters on avenues as well
This situation really worries me
Despised are those who always kept the Royal House going
Anti-establishmentarianism is a system which condemns a singer
And defends a killer of elephants
If rapping is a crime, boy, don't click on play
You're being blindfolded, even the King will rob you here
Very soon, and if the law continues like this,
There'll be more rappers in Spanish prisons than in the US
Because we live beat up
Because they barely let us complain
About the oppression because of frases with symbolic weapons
To end up behind bars is not symbolic
The blood that flows is red, royalty is a lie. Royalty is a lie!
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
MOVING INTO POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RUMBLE
THE BORBONES ARE CROOKS
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
WE'RE TAKING POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RESONATE
NEITHER JUDGES, NOR PROSECUTORS, NOR BORBONES
This is for freedom of expression
For all those rappers
That are converting their anger into a song
We won't shut up, won't shut up, won't shut up, won't shut up, won't shut up
For La Insurgencia11, for Valtònyc, for Pablo Hasél12
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
MOVING INTO POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RUMBLE
THE BORBONES ARE CROOKS
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
WE'RE TAKING POSITION
LET THE PRISONS RESONATE
NEITHER JUDGES, NOR PROSECUTORS, NOR BORBONES
