Algo personal [English translation]

Probably in their town will be remembered

like puppies of good people

who stole flowers to gift their moms

and feed the pigeons

Probably all that must be true

though is more unclear; how and in what way

have achieved these people to be what they are

neither to who they serve when they raise the flag.

Strawmen who use cologne and honor

to hide dark intentions

they have double life, they're evil hitmen.

Between them and me there's something personal.

Surrounded by protocol, procession and security

they travel incognito in armored cars

to sow slanders, to lie with naturality

to hang their portraits in the schools.

They spend more than what they have in collecting

spies, blacklists and arsenals.

It's embarassing to see them boasting

who of them has the biggest.

They arm to the teeth in the name of peace

they play with things that don't have replacement

and they blame someone else if something goes wrong.

Between them and me there's something personal.

And as who has nothing to lose in that

they pulse the alarm and break the promises.

And in the name of who they're not pleased to meet

they put the pistols in our heads.

They pull out their hair but for not getting dirty

they come to shit in other houses

and experiment new methods of massacring

sophisticated and convincing at the same time.

They don't even know their father when they lose their mind

neither remember there are children in the world

they deny everyone the bread and the salt.

Between them and me there's something personal.

But of course, the hitmen never lose the chance

to declare publicly their effort

in promoting someday after a long easing

that let them find a previous setting.

That guarantees some minimum premises,

that ease the creation of resources,

that impulse a solid and able starting point

from east to west and from south to north

where stablishing the base of a friendship treaty

that contributes to lay the foundation

of a platform where to build

a beautiful future of love and peace.
