Antimatèria
Aspencat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La gran explosió
Som la gent que somniem
La gran explosió
A merced del hambre de los mercados
Aguantando la presión de sus mandíbulas
En manos de gobernantes gobernados
Contando sin dedos, forzando los miedos
El drama recorriendo las médulas
Resistiendo embestidas sin ser derribados
Que nos vengan a buscar a Termópilas
Espabilas? Les veo morir sentados
Atados a promesas que no se cumplen
El pan y el plato cambian de mano
Bajo los brazos de los que te hunden
Y la ansiedad visita temprano
Te pide que dejes las llaves dentro del buzón
Porque el hogar es lujo, como ciudadano
Invoco la ley de Talión
Ce monde es un bagne où les mauvaises herbes ne meurent pas,
Et comme toujours gouvernent les loups, et non des moutons,
Pour être élu ils font des promesses qu'ils ne maintiennent pas,
Ces chenapans essaient d'asphyxier nos rêves comme un Python,
Ils nous expulsent de nos maisons,
Et veulent priver nos gosses, de l'éducation
Ils laissent des families au chômage
et pillent notre héritage mais comme des sauvages
Avec ce bavardage, on les prendra en otage.
Som el vent del present
La gran explosió
Som el poble, som l'antimatèria
Som la gent que somniem
La gran explosió
Som la ràbia, la nova generació
Creu-me, saben que no anem a rendir-nos
Tenen minades les sendes
Com el fènix renaix de les cendres
Ningú podrà dir-nos que no ens vam defendre
Prendre, tots els parlaments i les cambres
No ens importa el partit que governe
La justícia del poble, contra la del sabre
Ens veurem esta nit en l'averne
No pagaran els plats trencats
Ni el deute del rescat
No entragarem la sanitat
No es ven la dignitat
L'educació no és competició
És obrir a l'amor la consciència
Ressorgirem, atacarem
Som el puny de la desobediència
Punto de mira, sobre la única fuente del problema
La confianza en el otro es imposible si miramos atrás
La historia se repite, los elegidos deciden
Que el resto solo somos piezas desechables
Somos carne de cañón
Entre los que juegan por el auténtico poder
Tu vida vale menos que un papel
Quieres saber cuál es el precio de tu piel
Crazy motherfucker get burn
Seh dem smooth criminal government never learn
Jokin us, ever disgusting us
Inl a go tired, stop blowin us
Grow with us, we a come from the dust
Dem a dutty badmind, me a go blind, me nah go sign
cay the whole a dem Lion, now is the time:
Open your eyes! Youth!
Stop steal money, is dividing us
All of dem politician are liying us
our mental slavey, the magic wash
dem a moove too bad as fuckin trush
is Dremen Team Longside Aspencats
we a burn dem turf you must see dat
Must see dat! must see dat
Yeh!!
The song Antimatèria by Aspencat speaks about resistance against oppressive structures and systems. The song mentions the frustration of living in a world where people are governed by those in power, who make empty promises and fail to deliver. Those in power try to stifle people's dreams and aspirations like a python would suffocate its prey. The government takes away people's homes, education, and jobs, leaving them hopeless and with nothing to hold onto. The song is a call for people to come together and resist the oppressive systems that govern their lives. The lyrics suggest that the people are the present wind, and they are the ones who dream of a change in the system.
In the second verse, the song mentions how the people will not give up and will take over the parliament and chambers if they have to. They don't care which political party governs the country; they want justice for the people, not just for those in power. The song expresses the idea that dignity, education, and health care are not commodities to be sold or auctioned in a competitive market; they are basic human rights that need to be respected and upheld. The song ends with a rallying cry for the people to unite and stand up against the oppressive government, to open their eyes to the truth of the system and resist it as a unified force.
