Ask Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Todos nosotros vamos para alla
A buscar algo que pueda ayudar,
La necesitamos para sobrevivir
Pero ahi hay alguin que lo va a impedir...

A ese alguien le quiero cantar
El pueblo oprimido quiere libertad
Ya esta harto de tanto mal
Y vos solo pensas en gobernar...

Askatasuna, ya la queremos
Askatasuna, ya la tendremos
Askatasuna vamos a gritar
La libertad ya es real!!!!

Tu vas a caer y vas a correr,
El que come mucho vomita mucho
Y nunca nadie lo va a entender
Hasta que lo sienta en su propio ser.





No corras, mas bien lucha
Ayuda al pueblo por la libertad!!!!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ask's song "ASK" speak to the struggle for freedom and liberation. The first verse acknowledges the common pursuit for something that can aid in survival, but highlights the existence of someone who will prevent that goal from being achieved. The chorus speaks directly to that oppressor, insisting that the oppressed people desire and deserve freedom, and that their cries for it will not be silenced.


The second verse calls out the obliviousness and self-interest of those in power. The bridge emphasizes the inevitability of retribution for their actions. The song concludes with a call to action, urging the people not to run away from the fight, but rather to assist in the struggle for liberation.
