Hey, Mister
Music and lyrics: Nuno Cabral
2016
Hey, Mister. You ain’t no king
Or master of truth
It ain’t easy to look wise
Behind those mischief eyes
Despite your beliefs
The world does not revolve around you
How can you have so great a scorn
Right into where you were born?
We’re not your whim’s slaves
Or pawns on your chessboard
We’ll crash against the waves
We’ll not yield our swords
Hey, Mister. You ain’t no deity
Intended to be worshiped
In this weirdo kingdom
With no place to freedom
So many pages
Heartburn filled
Under the blue cover we will make our stand
You’re no longer on demand
We’re not your whim’s slaves
Or pawns on your chessboard
We’ll crash against the waves
We’ll not yield our swords
You may despise
Whoever you want
Believe in no law
Except your own
Frighten with threats
The ones who face you
And utter all words
Of unspeakable wrath
No matter what
You’ll never beat
The power behind
An honest mind
We’re not your whim’s slaves
Or pawns on your chessboard
We’ll crash against the waves
We’ll not yield our swords
