(Verse 1) The streetlights flicker in the night. Las sombras bailan en el asfalto. Whispers of danger fill the air. Young lives caught in a dark trap. Dreams get lost in a cloud of smoke. Another soul falls, day by day. (Chorus) El barrio grita su dolor. El barrio grita su dolor. No escape from these dark chains. We are trapped in a vicious circle. La esperanza se está perdiendo. La esperanza se está perdiendo. (Verse 2) Las sirenas rompen el silencio. Broken windows, graffiti walls. Niños juegan cerca del peligro. The dealers stand on every corner. Fear is a constant, heavy guest. No one feels truly safe here. (Aaah huuuum) El barrio grita su dolor. El barrio grita su dolor. No escape from these dark chains. We are trapped in a vicious circle. La esperanza se está perdiendo. La esperanza se está perdiendo. (Verse 3) We break the silence with a shout. Scream out loud for all to hear. For those who seek a better way. Their courage lights up the darkness. The rhythm calls for justice now. We must fight for our community. (Uuuh oohh) El barrio grita su dolor. El barrio grita su dolor. No escape from these dark chains. We are trapped in a vicious circle. La esperanza se está perdiendo. La esperanza se está perdiendo. (Verse 4) A new dance is starting now. Ska beats for a new revolution. The rhythm is a call for action. Together we stand, strong and united. Our party is a big protest. We will change the world now. (Huuuum aaah) El barrio grita su dolor. El barrio grita su dolor. No escape from these dark chains. We are trapped in a vicious circle. La esperanza se está perdiendo. La esperanza se está perdiendo. El barrio grita su dolor. El barrio grita su dolor. No escape from these dark chains. We are trapped in a vicious circle. La esperanza se está perdiendo. La esperanza se está perdiendo.
