Corruption at Sea
(Verse 1)
With the waves of the Atlantic, from Africa, dreams head towards the Canaries,
Bodies full of hope in search of a new home.
Behind every story, a heinous secret,
Invisible chains mark their voices.
(Chorus)
Oh, seas of wakefulness, dragging pain,
Corruption sails in a rudderless boat.
Mafias dealing with fear and faith,
Blackmail in the shadows, who will stop them?
*(Verse 2)*
Networks are woven in distant African lands,
With miserable wages, deceived poor souls.
NGOs that promise a better future,
But in their hearts, there’s a treacherous pact.
(Chorus)
Oh, seas of wakefulness, dragging pain,
Corruption sails in a rudderless boat.
Parties that whisper, foreign interests,
While the truth hides in poisons.
(Bridge)
Impassive nations look the other way,
While in silence, the cries have erupted.
Businessmen count every life that goes,
A dark business they don’t want to end.
(Verse 3)
The waves carry tears, endless stories,
Of those who take risks, of those who are no longer here.
At Europe’s doorstep, poverty has arrived,
But power and profit will never cease.
(Chorus)
Oh, seas of wakefulness, dragging pain,
Corruption sails in a rudderless boat.
Life at stake, the future on the line,
A cycle of injustice that knows no end.
(Coda)
Thus we keep sailing in the tempest,
With eyes wide open, we must awaken!
For in every journey, the truth lies hidden,
And only together can we change reality.
Dedicatoria. Dedico lo mejor habido en este, vídeo poema canción, a mi queridísima mujer, Marina Ponce Zambrano.
