Americans are the Venezuelans
The Colombians, the Peruvians, the Ecuadorians
Americans are the Chileans, the Haitians
Brazilians, Argentines, Mexicans
Americans are all of us who fight on this earth
It's a pity that there are brother towns
That act as if they were forgotten
That Americans are all of us in America
For the many Indigenous people killed here
For the riches stolen from Potosi
For the honor of my oppressed ancestors
We must follow the evolution that in the invasion we lost
And with pride that we are Americans
We grow up and make of our land an envied people
For the honor of your oppressed ancestors
We must follow the evolution that in the invasion we lost
Until the desire to have power
Be smaller than the desire to be happy
Until universities reach the slums
And to the jails in your country until the weapons of this population
Be the preparation more than the bullets of a Rifle
We will always be dependent on those beings who oppress you and who say for you
Let the Santeros sing it in Havana
That sounds from Patagonia to Tijuana
Be heard from Panama to Guatemala
And the volume of Latinos in the Big Apple
Which is translated in the Caribbean and in Brazil
To hear from Montevideo to Santiago and Guayaquil
Sound from Santo Domingo to Bogota
From Puerto Rico to Caracas from La Asuncion to La Paz
While English is not studied by overcoming
If not to forget the Spanish
While Mcdonal's and Coca Cola are more consumed
That an own Arepa with Melon juice
As long as the Chamos know more about Michael Jackson
That of the Hero that Swords to all we Independent
We will be dependent always ...
From a borrowed identity that Mtv contagions us
Amaericanos are the Puerto Ricans
The Paraguayans, Uruguayans and Panamanians
Americans are Nicaraguans, Costa Ricans and Dominicans
Americans are all of us who fight on this earth
It's a pity that there are brother towns
They act as if they had forgotten
That Americans are all of us in America
Americans are the Salvadorans
Guatemalan, Jamaican and Cuban
Americans are not only the North of my America
If not those that our America loves
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
