mariana machado – what about people? lyrics

Loading...

i used to spend the day
reading books of pepetela
learning quotes by mandela
i used to believe
that once you close
the opportunity of a pacifist way
you also open
the path on a violent day

i used to see my father’s rage face
when he heard about the victims of capitalism
i thought he was incarnated by lenin
then he became a monster like stalin

he told me
what about people
with no place to stay
what about children
with no school for days

now i sacrifice my life
to the minority that is constantly oppressed
trotsky is boosting me
i don’t need sucess

now i remermber
the resistence troops in havana
but now i’m determined
to throw maduro out of venezuela

i’ve always been inspired
by martin luther king
and his obstination that he brought
to all these people suffering

now i dream to become that man
that poeple will clap hands in the end
i don’t care if i’m an antihero
i just want to change that crooked law

cause what about people
with no place to stay
what about children
with no school for days

i’m tired of seing people sit down manipulated
seing people run away from home
from the weapons of another world
being used to the bombs explode
while some are chilling at their home

now, they say i’m melodramatic
but it’s hard to be pragmatic
when all this world makes me feel problematic
when i see these countries, holding pride
in being democratic
but finally they prove to be far from diplomatic

but for them laying on to judgment
feels more secure than an adjustment
so what about people, what about people..
