Prisionero
Ignotus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Un nudo en una cuerda, una viga y una silla
No queda otra solución, ya no queda otra salida
Como has llegado hasta aquí, que ha pasado con tu vida
Para preferir la muerte que afrontar un nuevo día

Amaste la libertad, por ella todo darías
Y elegiste un camino para poder conseguirla
Con razón o sin razón, tú creías en lo que hacías
No te arrepientes de nada y por eso tu agonía

PRISIONERO DE UN ESTADO, OPRESOR Y AUTORITARIO
QUE UTILIZA EL MIEDO Y LA MENTIRA, QUE COACCIONA Y ASESINA

Unos lloraran tu muerte otros reirán de alegría
Muchos saldrán a la calle aunque lo medios no lo digan
Dirán: “otro terrorista que se ha ahorcado en una viga”
Pero nunca contarán lo que allí dentro te hacían

Soportando humillaciones, vejaciones y torturas
Separado de tu gente y rozando la locura
Tomaste la decisión de poner fin a tu vida
Y escapar de aquellos muros que atrapado te tenían

PRISIONERO DE UN ESTADO, OPRESOR Y AUTORITARIO
QUE UTILIZA EL MIEDO Y ..LA MENTIRA.., QUE COACCIONA Y ASESINA

Te mostraste irreverente, pero siempre fuiste de frente....
Demostraste tu inconformismo y caíste en el abismo....




Condenado por la mezquindad, de los jueces del dinero ....
Señores oscuros, los guardianes del imperio.....

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ignotus's song "Prisionero" describe the story of a person who, having fought for freedom their whole life, finds themselves trapped in a cell, oppressed by a violent and corrupt state. The lyrics begin with describing the person's state of despair, as they have no other solution but to end their life. The lyrics describe the desperation and pain of the person's decision. Their death will be seen as justified by some and condemned by others, but nobody will ever know the tortures that they had to endure. The song goes on to paint a picture of a state that uses fear and violence to oppress its citizens, and the terrible consequences of that oppression.


The lyrics also suggest that the person was unjustly condemned and sentenced by corrupt judges who are only concerned with money, power and preserving the establishment. In summary, the song captures the pain, the despair, the vulnerability, and the struggle for dignity of those who have found themselves trapped in a repressive and oppressive system.
