De Couleurs Vives

All these rumors
That say black or white
So, is it the name or the skin that would decide the rank
I can't breathe under the weight of these nonsense
Same blood, same moon
Whatever they say, whatever they say
All these 'I-we' so heavy that some put to the ground
Their only crime to this day is being born from their mothers
I can't breathe under the weight of these nonsense
Same blood, same moon
Whatever they say

I want to live, laugh, free
I am a woman of bright colors and that means all that
I want to live, laugh, free
I am a woman of bright colors and that means all that
Of bright colors

Sometimes there are days when the sky is so beautiful
That I come, I admit, to envy the birds
For being only witnesses of our inhuman acts
And being able to fly, fly towards other tomorrows
I think of you often
You disappointing ones who divide the whole
I think of you often who trample on us, I am truly disappointed
So I pray to the wind to bring you back to us
So I pray to the wind to change everything

I leave them to time, these stories of the past
I keep it true to take a stand
So I sing a little
Everyone does their best

I want to live, laugh, free
I am a woman of bright colors and that means all that
I want to live, laugh, free
I am a woman of bright colors and that means all that
I want to live, laugh, free
I am a woman of bright colors and that means all that
Of bright colors
Of bright colors
