Canta
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Dale voz al olvido
Unete a lo positivo
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Si queremos cambio algun dia
Tu batalla es la mia
Who are we if we don't know where we come from?
What are we if we ignore our each other?
Where would we be without one another?
I find myself wondering why
Why do I have food to eat
While my sister is out there selling herself on the street?
How can I live in Peace while my brother fights militants overseas?
What can I do to change the things I see
Like families struggling to make that money
But the rent is too high and the jobs pay nothing
Somebody tell me something
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Dale voz al olvido
Unete a lo positivo
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Si queremos passa algun dia
Tu batalla es la mia
Basta
Oye
Usa la mente
Que lo que dijo?
Mama me dijo que money isn't everything
It comes and goes family's the most important thing
You can't, take it to the grave
So make, the most of everyday
Me dio la inspiracion
Para luchar y nunca desganar
Sacrifico su educacion
Para darme la oppertunidad
Life experience outweighs a degree
She came with two bags my sister and me
Ready to make a life in a new country
And they can't teach that in university
She believes in arming people with the right tools
To build a better life you'll need some fuel
A champion for justice and human rights
And that's why this immigrant fights
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Dale voz al olvido
Unete a lo positivo
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Si queremos cambio algun dia
Tu batalla es la mia
Basta
Oye
Usa la mente
Que lo que dijo?
Over the years we've been called many names
Second class citizens taught to feel shame
Considered insignificant just because we're different
When the truth is we're one and the same.
We organized, planned and fought through pain
For the price of equality we did not die in vain
So instead, of dropping my head
I raise it up high and testify
No more tears no time to cry
As long as you struggle then so do I
Let's sing away the pain from the past
And fight the battle as long as they last
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia Dolores
Dale voz al olvido
Unete a lo positivo
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Si queremos passa algun dia
Tu batalla es la mia
El canto alivia dolores
Dale voz al olvido
Unete a lo positivo
Canta Y no llores
El canto alivia dolores
Si queremos cambio algun dia
Tu batalla es la mia
