The Manifesto Lyrics

Part I

[Intro: Trueno]
Yo no sé qué va a pasar mañana
Cuando atienda la luz que me llama
Mami mi futuro me reclama
Camino hacia la luz
I have nothing to lose

[Verse 1: Trueno]
Cruce la puerta y hoy me siento libre
Dejé el pasado y me fijé en lo simple

Solo dame veintiún gramos par’ sentirme firme
Y yo te dejo mi legado, antes de irme
Cada paso una enseñanza, sigo con confianza, tan rápido que el tiempo no me alcanza
No busco alabanzas menos falsas esperanzas, descansa
Como cuando estabas en la panza
Y despierta, toma las cartas en el asunto
Para poder mirar la vida en diferentes puntos
Pregunto, que habrá en ese mundo que viene después del mundo?
Lo bueno es que vamos todos juntos
Yo voy con mis valores, también florezco regando las flores
Me llevo los aromas y los colores
Hago que el cielo se enamore y si las nubes lloran que no lloren
Tengo a los árboles de profesores
Me encanta sentir el viento, subir la montaña sin aliento
Al final lo que importa es el intento
Solo me acompañan mis hazañas, mi virtud y mi sentimiento
Para escribir la parte dos del cuento

[Bridge: Trueno]
Yo no sé qué va a pasar mañana (Yo no sé, yo no sé)
Cuando atienda la luz que me llama (Que me llama)
Mami mi futuro me reclama (Yes, yes, yes)
Camino hacia la luz (Camino, camino, huh, yeah)
I have nothing to lose (Camino hacia la luz ma, camino, camino hacia la luz ma)

[Chorus: 2-D]
The mountain it is high
Yeah, the mountain is sad so the mountain cry
Tin god
The braided day
But the mountain stays on still
Don’t lose yourself
If you don’t stop now then you’ll never going to be done
Living under your gilded sun
On the mountain

[Spoken Word: Trueno]
Es el TR1
Huh, yeah, con Gori— con Gorillaz, yeah
Desde Inglaterra hasta Argentina

[Chorus: 2-D]
The mountain it is high
Yeah, the mountain is sad so the mountain cry
Tin god
The braided day
But the mountain stays on still
Don’t lose yourself
If you don’t stop now then you’ll never going to be done
Living under your gilded sun
On the mountain
(Oh-oh-oh-okay)

Part II

(Hahahahaha)

[Verse 2: Proof]
You never seen a killer with fangs
And millimetres that bang and killers need to be swanging
And still I reach ya
You aren’t ready for death until I showed up
Hold breath until you blow the one set
My n!ggas throw up
How many times I gotta prove
Ya’ll not to test me, this uz
Can be deadly slugs, move
Through your chest piece
It’s all reality
Beefing with your blocks
That you’re creeping with your glock
Now you sleeping in a box
No one can convince the invincible
To be sensible
It’s in the principal
My pistol won’t miss you all
Why shouldn’t I diss you, dawg? I’m Leatherface
This E&J make me say your DNA’s genetic waste
A medic case that’ll detonate, Dirty Harry
A pathetic taste, a shroomhead that murder fairies
A recovering heroin addict, looking down the barrel with my peerman’s eye
I got this shotgun just swerving at it
My triggers have turned a pump, into a uzi
You chumps do not move me, ya’ll jump inside movies
Yeah, scary dudes
That hide behind ya n!ggas
Confide inside a squealer
And died beneath a river
My urban strikes a lot
(Oh, I’m just fu*kin— alright, come on, let’s go)

[Verse 3: Trueno]
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Huh, huh, yeah

Entro rompiendo la puerta
Acá no tenemos miedo le estamos pegando la vuelta
Paso por tales portales que matan mortales contales que el mundo revienta
(Ti-ti-ti) Tiemblan las placas tectónicas, suena la armónica, rinden las cuentas
TR1 te saca la venda para que veas que la realidad no está en venta (Boom)
Sigo buscando el final del túnel, busco esa luz que al final nos une
Solo los buenos son los que suben, las almas levitando como el volumen
Solo uno más en el cardumen, busco la paz, todos los lunes
Soy de los que asumen a su mentira de lo que respiran cuando no hay perfume
(Move 37, game over)

[Outro: 2-D]
You’re not alone, you’re not alone, you’re not even close
You’re open, then you’re closed, then you’re open
You’re not alone, you’re not alone, you’re not even close
You’re true, then you’re untrue, then you’re true again

Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)
Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)
Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)
Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)

Slow release pills
You take them today
You take them for tomorrow (Only automatic now now, now, now, now)
You take them for tomorrow (Only automatic now now, now, now, now)
Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)
Only automatic now (Now, now, now, now)

The Manifesto Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Trueno]
The intro talks about stepping into the unknown without fear. He feels drawn toward a bright path ahead, knowing the future is calling him. He’s ready to move forward freely, with nothing holding him back, embracing whatever comes next with an open heart.

[Verse 1: Trueno]
In this verse, he describes leaving the past behind and focusing on simple, meaningful things. He wants just enough to feel grounded and strong, while leaving behind a legacy for others. Every experience teaches him something, and he moves with confidence, even when life feels fast and overwhelming. He doesn’t chase empty praise or fake hopes but instead wakes up to life and makes deliberate choices. He reflects on the mysteries of life beyond what we know and values walking his own path while staying true to his principles. Nature and its beauty, like flowers, trees, and mountains, teach him lessons and give him joy. He finds freedom in feeling the wind and facing challenges, knowing that trying is what truly matters. His accomplishments, virtues, and emotions are his companions as he continues writing the next chapter of his story.

[Bridge: Trueno]
Here, he repeats that he doesn’t know what will happen tomorrow, but he feels a strong pull toward the light. The future calls him, and he moves toward it confidently, with nothing to lose, showing courage and hope for what’s ahead.

[Chorus: 2-D]
The chorus compares life to climbing a high, sometimes sad mountain. Even when challenges make you feel down, you need to stay steady and true to yourself. Stopping now would prevent progress, so keep going and live fully, even under pressures or distractions, like a gilded sun above the mountain.

[Spoken Word: Trueno]
This part is a shout-out, introducing the artist and connecting his music from England to Argentina, showing global collaboration and reach.

[Chorus: 2-D]
The chorus repeats the mountain metaphor, emphasizing endurance through hardships. Even when sadness or difficulties weigh you down, the mountain stands strong. The message encourages not losing oneself and continuing to push forward, because quitting now would stop growth and progress, reminding listeners to stay resilient and focused on their journey.

[Verse 2: Proof]
This verse switches to a darker, more intense tone, describing life in a dangerous, violent environment. He talks about facing enemies and threats, showing how survival demands alertness, skill, and toughness. There’s a sense of proving oneself repeatedly and navigating a world where danger is always present. He mixes realistic threats with exaggerated, almost cinematic imagery, highlighting both the fear and power he feels. The verse touches on themes of loyalty, confrontation, and the consequences of conflict. He describes his weapons and readiness as part of protecting himself, while also acknowledging the risks of violence and the harsh reality of his surroundings. There’s an element of warning and confidence, as he claims he won’t be fooled or moved by others’ actions. Despite the chaos, there’s a strict code he follows, showing a mix of control, survival instinct, and calculated response to threats around him.

[Verse 3: Trueno]
Here, he shifts back to a defiant and empowered attitude. He breaks through barriers fearlessly and faces challenges head-on. He passes through difficult moments symbolized as portals and tectonic shifts, uncovering truth and rejecting illusions. He’s searching for hope and connection, aiming for unity and higher understanding. The good rise above, and he moves with purpose, staying aware of deception while pursuing peace and clarity. The verse reflects strength, resilience, and a determination to keep moving forward no matter the obstacles.

[Outro: 2-D]
The outro reflects on human emotions and cycles. It shows that people can feel connected yet distant, open yet closed, or true yet untrue at times. Life moves in patterns, and accepting that rhythm is part of living. The repeated phrase about “automatic now” hints at routines, habits, or coping mechanisms that carry you forward, like taking medication or following structured steps for mental or physical survival. It blends the idea of inevitability with conscious action, showing that even when life feels repetitive or controlled, there’s a way to navigate it thoughtfully while staying aware of the present and preparing for tomorrow.
