Somos Libres

[Intro]

[Verse]

Somos Libres

Somos Libres

For every voice silenced,

For every truth denied—

Hoy gritamos, hoy bailamos, somos libres.

(Today we shout, today we dance, we are free.)

[Chorus / Estribillo]

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

No puedes parar nuestro destino divino

(You can’t stop our divine purpose, it’s time we shine, yo)

[Verse 1]

Speak the truth, they punish you,

Call you crazy, call you liar,

But the fire in the soul of the people

Burns higher and higher.

Why can a man who can’t create life

Get to say if it’s taken away?

The Creators are the women,

Así que siéntate, escucha—aprende algo hoy.

(So sit down, listen—you might learn something today.)

How can you know what giving feels like

When you only take?

You rape, you pillage,

While the world escapes.

Desde el primer aliento, sworn in by blood,

(Born into a system, drowning in the flood)

Dreams stolen, truth erased,

Implanted in a system of greed and endless pain.

[Pre-Chorus / Build]

But we break the silence,

We break the chains,

Somos la voz, la verdad,

We are free again.

[Chorus / Estribillo]

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

No puedes parar nuestro destino divino

(You can’t stop our divine purpose, it’s time we shine, yo)

[Bridge / Drop]

Mira la reina, she’s the creator

Escucha la madre, siente su poder

The world is shifting, new order’s lifting

We rise, we roar, we’re breaking through the door

[Breakdown / Spoken Chant]

You don’t tell them,

From the moment they’re born

They are sworn in by blood

To a world that takes, that breaks,

But we awaken,

We reclaim,

Somos libres, libres,

We are free, free—

No hay cadenas en mi voz

(No chains on my voice)

[Chorus / Final]

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

We know who we are, porque somos free

(Take your chains off our voices, déjanos vivir)

No puedes parar nuestro destino divino

(You can’t stop our divine purpose, it’s time we shine, yo)Somos libres, somos libres—

We are free, we are free

Raise your voice, break the silence

Somos libres, we are free
