No Te Aceleres
Ilegales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si no luchas te matas
Veamos como tiemblan
Las páginas de la historia
¡Ser manso es peligroso!
Así ruge la historia
Con nervio y con sangre
Que gire el mundo
No queremos morir
Por la patria o el rey
Ni por dioses, ni diosas
De alquiler
La inocencia de ayer, ya no puedo volver
No hay doctrina, que oculte al mercader
Ser manso es peligroso, si no luchas te matas
Ser manso es peligroso
Si no luchas te matas
Veamos como tiemblan
Las páginas de la historia
No queremos morir por la patria o el rey
Ni por dioses, ni diosas de alquiler
La inocencia de ayer, ya no puedo volver
No hay doctrina, que oculte al mercader
No queremos morir por la patria o el rey
Ni por dioses, ni diosas de alquiler
La inocencia de ayer, ya no puedo volver
No hay doctrina, que oculte al mercader
Ser manso es peligroso
Si no luchas te matas
Rebelión, rebelión
The lyrics of Ilegales's song "No Te Aceleres" emphasize the dangers of being meek and passive. The song discusses the importance of fighting for one's beliefs and standing up against oppressors. Being submissive is seen as a threat to oneself, as it can lead to one's own demise. The song urges people to recognize the tremors that can be felt throughout history when individuals fail to stand up for themselves and their beliefs.
The lyrics of the song also emphasize the importance of living for oneself rather than dying for someone else's cause. The song suggests that people should not strive to die for their country, their king or queen, or even for a religious figure. Instead, they should live their lives for themselves and not for the "rental gods" that have been created by society. The song encourages listeners to reject existing doctrines that try to hide the true intentions of those in power and urges them to think for themselves.
In summary, Ilegales's "No Te Aceleres" is a powerful anthem that calls for people to take control of their lives and to fight against oppression. The song encourages individuals to stand up for their beliefs and not to be submissive, even when it may seem like the easier option.
