Tom Morello & The Bloody Beetroots Lyrics
"Lightning Over Mexico"
(feat. Ana Tijoux)
Curtain rise and rooster crow
Clouds frame the lights below
Lightning over Mexico
Kiss the master's ring, then go
Unearth a box of sharpened stones
Lightning over Mexico
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Ashes of unfavored souls
Arrow cocked in quivering bow
Lightning over Mexico
With martyr's blood, the San Juan flows
Drags tyrants 'neath the undertow
Lightning over Mexico
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Nos clavaron de entrada, nos taparon de las caras
Nos callaron las palabras, nos mataron la esperanza
Persiguieron con redada, acribillaron con las balas
Enterraran con las palas, en la escala somos los sin cara
Los sin nombre, los nadie, los nada
Somos los asesinados, cada uno en social democracia
Falsa, no estamos en tus museos
Y nuestros cuerpos no caben en tus medios
Somos cuarta, quinta categorÃa
Los humanos sin derecho, sin reparos, sin dinero
Sin techo, los que refriegan en tu cara
Que somos miles, miles y miles despiertos
Pensaste matarnos, pero nos multiplicamos
Somos la semillas que no murieron en vano
Y ahora nos toca, liberarnos, levantarnos
Somos el rayo, somos el rayo
Buried us beneath the reeds
Didn't know that we were seeds
Buried us beneath the reeds
Didn't know that we were seeds
Buried us beneath the reeds
Didn't know that we were seeds
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

Royal Blood - "Limbo" Wake up every morning
Almost surprised I survived
Blood on the pillow
Tears in my eyes

Nobody move

My little baby I love you
You move me, my son
You improve me

Surfing serf
Surf till you're dumb

Nonpoint - "Ruthless" I'm about to explode
Speeding down a warpath, front seat
Self-offense. Call it, battle by proxy
Goldilocks distance
