En Contra de la Gravedad (Defying Gravity)

[Elphaba]
The guards are coming up
We need to put a barricade at the door
I'm going to use this

[Glinda]
What?

[Elphaba]
I'm going to use this

[Glinda]
Why couldn't you stay still for a second instead of losing your temper?

Good luck and all the best to you
We both know who's drifting away because she thinks she's so clever

[Elphaba]
Good luck and all the best to you, may you be happy too
With vile, vain, and servile ambitions

[Both]
And even though things won't go well
Good luck to you

[Madame Morrible]
People of Oz, we have an enemy we must find and capture
Don't believe anything she says, she's wicked
She was the cause of the mutilation of these innocent little monkeys
Green skin is a clear manifestation of her twisted nature
Of this twisted, of this repulsive evil witch

[Glinda]
Don't be afraid

[Elphaba]
No, I'm not
It's the wizard who should be afraid of me

[Glinda]
Elfis, listen to me, just apologize before it's too late
Make the wizard an ally, do it or you'll lose
What you want and have dreamed of

[Elphaba]
I know, and I don't want to, no
I can't want it anymore

Today I'm not the same, today something is not the same
Enough of them saying what I do right or wrong
What's done is in the past and I won't start over
Today I follow my instincts, I have to fly
I'll go against gravity
I'll do it against gravity
And you won't bring me down

[Glinda]
You're going to lose your mind with your airs of grandeur

[Elphaba]
I don't accept the barriers that say you can't
If I don't jump over them, I'll never know if I'm capable
I thought it was bad to fail in love
If I failed, losing my soul is worse
I'm going against gravity
I'll do it against gravity and you won't bring me down

[Guards]
Open the door in the name of your high oznipotence

[Elphaba]
Ah may ah tay ah tum ditum

[Glinda]
What are you doing? Stop that, that's what started all this mess
Those dreadful spells to levitate, stop it now!
What happened? Where are your wings?
Maybe you're not as powerful as you think
(Broom appears flying)
Holy Oz!

[Elphaba]
I told you Glinda, see I told you

[Guards]
Break down the door, prepare the catapult

[Elphaba]
Come on, climb up

[Glinda]
What?

[Elphaba]
Come with me, imagine what we can do together
Without limits, together and without limits
And tell me who can beat this pair, Glinda
Dreams we plan

[Glinda]
Everything in our hands

[Both]
Nothing can fail us
There are two against gravity
With two against gravity

[Elphaba]
No one will bring us down

What happened? Are you coming?

[Glinda]
Elphis, you're trembling, take this put it on
Good luck with this decision

[Elphaba]
You too, go with my blessing

[Both]
May you achieve what you're trying
And never regret
May you find luck for yourself
And don't forget me

[Guards]
There she is! Don't let them escape!
(They grab Glinda)

[Glinda]
Let me go, can't you hear? Let me go!

[Elphaba]
Let her go, she has nothing to do with this
It's me you're looking for, me

[Glinda]
Elphis!

[Elphaba]
It's me!
I'm heading towards the horizon where the sea disappears
A wizard predicted your time to fly will come
If I fly alone, I do it in freedom
And to those who doubt, let them know the truth
That I rise against gravity!
And today there's no law of gravity
And no one will bring me down!
And no one here in all of Oz
Neither wizard nor atrocious spell
Would make me come down!

[Glinda]
Good luck

[Ozians]
She's wicked
Out

[Elphaba]
Bring me down!

[Ozians]
Out with the wicked ones
So bring her down

[Elphaba]
Ah!

[Ozians]
Now
