Hambre De Victoria [English translation]

All I have is this mic

and my concentration,

After months of ploughing through my soul,

I'm back in action.

All I have is a voice and the

hope of thousands that give me

their unwavering trust.

All I want is to live

A full life,

beyond these daily

schedules that punish me.

To sit down to eat dinner in peace

Without noises that pollute,

I'm a patron of rap

To keep quiet is my greatest crime.

All I see is desire,

revenge and trickery

In the nation where corruption and The AMPA 1

have set up camp.

An image of indolence,

of conformity and envy

The indifferent2fragility

That my families fight.

All that I do is

expressed on these sheets (of paper)

Because of spilt blood and sweat

they are left red.

Forgotten and guarded,

with a bolt and a thousand locks.

Until at last I take them,

seeing the sparkle in your3 eyes.

All that I know is that

I can't change my cards,

that this system brushes me aside

and I won't miss it.

I know what I learnt from the

lessons that time gave.

I know I can go,

and die at any moment.

All that I feel is love

for those who love me,

whoever needs me and applauds me,

making my flame shine bright.

I feel the tragedy in faith

each morning in my arms

but I find pleasure

in a smile and an embrace.

All that I look for is an ear

that listens to me.

Someone who, upon feeling the surge of anger

in their heartbeats, fights.

Who doesn't bow down before power

and its mark of ruthlessness.

I'm looking for supporters that display

disobedience.

All that I am, was given to me by

hard experience.

The blows of the past

have killed my innocence.

I am my spirit and my fate

my luck and my mentor,

I'm the one who saves myself

if I don't find a saviour.

YEAH!!!

I'm hungry for victory!

War, battle and glory

Rap was my blessing!

I've come to blow out the despair

Flee from the tragedy

Rap was my undoing!

I'm hungry for victory

Anger, love and euphoria

Death does not forgive!

I've come to tell4 the story,

Vent my hatred

Life gave me this gift!
