Por La Gracia De Dios Lyrics (English Translation) – Mon Laferte

There are airplanes filled with dreams at break of day
Gliding over the skin of sleepless cities and their presidents
And long highways hold the sun, and a few AK-47s
The burden falls on the same shoulders as always

It’s in the name of the law
It’s in the name of faith
By the grace of God

There are whole futures crossing through the night, riding the beast
There are storefronts promising comfort down the grand avenues
There’s a desert painted over with flowers there, at the end of the world

There are women condemned for fighting to survive, ah

It’s in the name of the law
It’s in the name of faith
It’s in the name of the law
It’s in the name of faith
By the grace of God
The grace of God

The grace of God
The grace of God
The grace of God
