Libertad
Helker Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mendigando sufrió la pobreza que ayer,
Heredó entre sus genes.
Sin embargo logró vencer la tentación,
De no caer en el crimen.

Y luchó con uñas y dientes,
entregó su corta vida con valor.

Devastado quedó por la sucia traición
De quien domina el imperio.
Robaron el honor de esta digna nación
Donde reinan hoy los medios.

Se escuchó rugir el pueblo,
Renovando un viejo sueño y la ilusión.

Sé que podrá cambiar,
Todo será distinto.
Rompiendo las barreras,
Para unirnos en un mismo grito.
Sé que podrá cambiar,
Todo será distinto.
Rompiendo las barreras,
Para unirnos en un mismo grito.

Montado en un fuerte viento,
Viajando en busca de la libertad
