Tracy Chapman - Subcity Spanish translation lyrics

Your rating:

Ciudad subterranea

La gente dice que no existe
Porque a nadie le gusta admitir
Que hay una ciudad subterranea
Donde la gente vive cada dia
De la basura y la decadencia
De los restos de su proximo humano

Aqui en la ciudad subterranea la vida es dura
No podemos recibir ningun apoyo gubernamental
Me gustaria dar al Sr. Presidente mi respeto honesto
Por despreciandome a mi

Dicen que hay demasiado crimen en las calles de esta ciudad
Estoy de acuerdo
El gobierno y la economia tienen el control de la bolsa
Cuando yo trabajaba, era en fabricas
Vivo por la merced del mundo
Pienso que tengo suerte de estar vivo

Dicen que caimos a traves de la red
Dicen que el sistema funciona
Pero que no lo dejamos ayudar
Creo que nunca terminan a pensar
Que lo que queremos no son solo limosnas
Sino una manera de vivir una vida honesta
Vivir, esto no es vivir

Que hice para merecer esto
Confiaba en Dios
Trabajaba cada dia de mi vida
Pensaba que tenia algunas guarantias
Eso es lo que pensaba
Por ultimo, eso es lo que pensaba

La noche pasada tuve otro sue~no cansador
Reflejando lo que llevaria la ma~nana
La noche pasada so~ne
Que una fria luz azul me estaba iluminando
Grite hasta despertarme
Pense que tenia que morir
Pense que tenia que morir

Subcity

People say it doesn't exist
'Cause no one would like to admit
That there is a city underground
Where people live everyday
Off the waste and decay
Off the discards of their fellow man

Refrein
Here in subcity life is hard
We can't receive any government relief
I'd like to please give Mr. President my honest regards
For disregarding me

They say there's too much crime in these city streets
My sentiments exactly
Government and big business hold the purse strings
When I worked I worked in the factories
I'm at the mercy of the world
I guess I'm lucky to be alive

Refrein

They say we've fallen through the cracks
They say the system works
But we won't let it
Help
I guess they never stop to think
We might not just want handouts
But a way to make an honest living
Living this ain't living

Refrein

What did I do deserve this
Had my trust in God
Worked everyday of my life
Thought I had some guarantees
That's what I thought
At least that's what I thought

Refrein

Last night I had another restless sleep
Wondering what tomorrow might bring
Last night I dreamed
A cold blue light was shining down on me
I screamed myself awake
Thought I must be dying (2x)

Refrein

Disregarding me (8x)
