[English]

I cried, I cried, I'm sorry

It happens to me when I see too much advertising

You see them, they look so happy

In the new ads for some cellphone

On the street, a smile is worth gold

Or double

In my neighborhood, there was a robbery in the morning

Violent

If there's a god, he has to do something, yes

Because some god has to show up

Now a god, who wears number 10

Ah, ah

I shouted, I shouted: "I'm sorry"

It happens to me when I hear a politician speak

You see them, they look so happy

And that smile is judged by no court

On the streets

These lives are worth little or nothing

In my neighborhood

Those people are hungry and angry

If there's a god, he has to do something, yes

Because some god has to show up

Now a god, who wears number 10

Ah, ah

...

If there's a god, he has to do something

If there's a god, he has to show up, uh-uh, uh-uh!

God!

...

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ra-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

Uh-uh, uh-uh

If there's a god

If there's a god

...

[Spanish]

Lloré, lloré lo siento

Me pasa cuando miro mucha publicidad

Los ves, están tan contentos

En los afiches nuevos de algún celular

En la calle una sonrisa vale oro

O el doble

En mi barrio, en la mañana hubo un robo

Violento

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer, sí

Porque algún dios tiene que aparecer

Ahora un dios, que se ponga la 10

Ah, ah

Grité, grité: "lo siento"

Me pasa cuando escucho un político hablar

Los ves, están tan contentos

Y esa sonrisa no la juzga ningún tribunal

Por las calles

Estas vidas valen poco o nada

En mi barrio

Esa gente tiene hambre y bronca

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer, sí

Porque algún dios tiene que aparecer

Ahora un dios, que se ponga la 10

Ah, ah

Si hay un dios, algo tiene que hacer

Si hay un dios, tiene que aparecer, ¡uh-uh, uh-uh!

¡Dios!

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ra-ah

La, ah-ah, la, ah-ah

Uh-uh, uh-uh

Si hay un dios

Si hay un dios
