Carta de Un León a Otro

Forgive me, my brother, if I say
I haven't had the urge to write you
I don't know if it's the confinement
I don't know if it's the food
Or the time I've spent in this life

The truth is, the zoo is depressing
And evil doesn't get redeemed without love
If it weren't for those kids
Who bring their joy near
It would be even more bitter

I hope you're doing better, I really do
Traveling around the whole wide world
Though the trainer, from what you tell me
Makes you work harder than you should

You have to understand, brother
That the soul has a villain
Not being able to command those they want
They unleash their power on the beasts

Many humans
Are important
With a chair in hand
And a whip in the other

But back to me, nothing has changed
Here since we were separated
There's something, however
That I notice among the people
It seems like they look at things differently

Their eyes have lost some sparkle
As if they were the ones in captivity
I know what I'm saying
Bet whatever you want
That outside they have thousands of problems

We fell into the jungle, brother
And look at whose merciful hands we're in
The air is tainted
With smoke and death
And who can predict
Their fate

Returning to nature
Would be their greatest wealth
There they could love freely
And there's no zoo of people

Take care, brother
I don't know when
But that day
Is coming soon
