From the north of South America, to where it reaches
my voice
CHORUS:
Brother do not let yourself say low class no!
raise your forehead as high as you can,
the lower class are those who live from the town,
giving alms to the working class.
we are the next generation model to follow
(we got to move on we got to move)
the legs of this country are the hammers and wheels
(we got to move on we got to move)
Not yet dawn and Juan Pérez smiles on the bus
they are about to graduate their two younger boys
He has not bought new pants for a long time
and his only attachment is the monotony of his labors
Juan Pérez like other gentlemen at a glance
it does not look like a bit of magazine penguins,
his shoes are old and he sees that they do not give him the deal
that the old man receives from the 4x4
maybe because he does not leave such good tips
or because he does not wear a tie in the restaurant,
where by the way the watchman who sees it from below up
lives at four corner and knows him from before
Every day Juan sells newspapers in the buses
while trying to touch her ears with her lips
He knows he deserves more than he earns
but he is not going to stay in his bed waiting for a change
CHORUS:
Brother do not let yourself say low class no!
raise your forehead as high as you can,
the lower class are those who live from the town,
giving alms to the working class.
we are the next generation model to follow
(we got to move on we got to move)
the legs of this country are the hammers and wheels
(we got to move on we got to move)
Brother do not stay sitting on the bed
that success is not going to touch the window,
raise the corduroy fist that you have to plant trees today
so that our children enjoy the shade tomorrow
Raise your sword of dignity and wisdom
charge your rights, shoot your rifle of conscience
since it is ignorance that makes poor people
and men on their knees are more knees than men
Juan Pérez is the peasant, the professor,
the one in the cellar, the ice cream man, any with value,
Juan Pérez the student the farmer
the journalist, the single mother or the early riser
On the other hand, the lower class is the police
that says: quiet and cedula instead of good morning
just like the harpies that for any process
they forget the language except the phrase 'how much is there'
the lowest class are the poor of pawn, the poor of
hopes, of love, of desire and of dream
the lower class is anyone
I want a change without even
have done something for your flag
CHORUS
Brother do not let yourself say low class no!
raise your forehead as high as you can,
the lower class are those who live from the town,
giving alms to the working class.
we are the next generation model to follow
(we got to move on we got to move)
the legs of this country are the hammers and wheels
(we got to move on we got to move)
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
