Lyrics and translation Gustavo Cordera - Lo Verdadero

Lo Verdadero

Todas las viejas protestas, antiguos reclamos
Está confirmado, ya se controlaron
Y en esa gran trampa que nos colocaron
Cayó nuestra lucha, que fue mi alegría
Y nuestra bandera de la rebeldía
Nos fue arrebatada por la intervención
De los tibios

Yo luché porque sentía que no me querían
Y por defenderme, estoy lleno de heridas
No fui amoroso ni fui solidario
Fui intransigente y totalitario
Y todo lo que hice es buscar al culpable
Para que repare la falta de amor
En mí mismo

Y hoy, de regreso a mi alma
Suelto un profundo suspiro
Que va dejando un espacio
A otra inhalación

Lo que es verdadero
Se revela, se desviste
Lo que realmente existe
No precisa una razón que lo explique

Sé que estar incluido no es cosa barata
O fui un esclavo o fui una rata
Huyendo a la sombra para mi cuidado
Y todos los pasos que fueron errados
Siguieron la luz de mi propia estrella
Que me iluminaba en mi evolución, eh

Si te he exigido un beso, no lo merecía
Y si te he juzgado me he equivocado
Y, si alguna vez te he aconsejado
Es porque seguro te he subestimado
Si andás por la vida tan desorientada
Buscándote un alma, como lo hago yo

El sacrificio no alcanza
Sufro y tampoco existo
No necesita más armas
Mi revolución

Lo que es verdadero
Se revela, se desviste
Lo que realmente existe
No precisa explicación

Lo que es verdadero
No pelea ni resiste
Lo que realmente existe
No precisa una razón que lo explique

What Is True

All the old protests, old claims
Have been confirmed, they've been controlled
And in that great trap that they've set us in
Our struggle has fallen, which was my joy
And our flag of rebellion
Has been taken from us by the interference
Of the lukewarm

I fought because I felt like I wasn't wanted
And in defending myself, I'm full of wounds
I wasn't loving or considerate
I was intransigent and dictatorial
And all I did was look for the guilty party
To make up for the lack of love
In myself

And today, back in my soul
I release a deep sigh
That leaves a space
For another inhalation

What is true
Reveals itself, undresses itself
What truly exists
Doesn't require a reason to explain it

I know that being included doesn't come cheap
Either I was a slave or I was a rat
Fleeing into the shadows for my own safety
And all the steps that were wrong
Followed the light of my own star
Which illuminated me in my evolution

If I've demanded a kiss from you, I didn't deserve it
And if I've judged you, I've made a mistake
And, if I've ever given you advice
It's because I've surely underestimated you
If you're walking through life so disoriented
Searching for a soul, as I do

Sacrifice isn't enough
I suffer and I don't exist either
It doesn't need more weapons
My revolution

What is true
Reveals itself, undresses itself
What truly exists
Doesn't need an explanation

What is true
Doesn't fight or resist
What truly exists
Doesn't need a reason to explain it
