Alto Al Guardian

from Ruido Debajo Del Puente by Eskera

lyrics

Created your borders more than 200 years ago
after pillaging and starving the natives, invading their homes.
You took their land from them just to call it your own.
"What's the next move of this master plan? Lets build ourselves a wall.
An iron curtain, a boundary for them. Let's push away the need of others that are
trying to find a way to make a better life for their own families.
exile anybody that affects our wealth and greed."
Stop limiting our pace. Stop limiting our will.
To cross a line that was once drawn in the sand,
by these ignorant white men who couldn't understand
that the repercussions of their actions would be
the death and starving of the "nomads" that are trying to flee
from a bad situation to a prosperous nation
to find themselves in front of a gate locking out their population.
Fifteen years ago it came to be
that the walls you once had built weren't sufficient to meet your needs.
So now you extend them deep into the sea
stating that its to restore the nations border integrity.
An operation, gatekeeper is the name,
making it sound so protective seems to be fucking insane
because thousands keep dying every single day
at the hands of your operation, at the hands of your hate.
It's time for operation gatekeeper to die
It's time for the people to rise up and shout alto al guardian.
