about

'Lampedusa' is the first track of a new chapter of Malota. It talks about a theme the band really care about: the Human Beings. On one side who die in hope of giving a better life to their family by migrating from their homeland and on the other hand the small-minded "living beings" who enjoy seeing cold dead bodies lying on the bottom of the sea. Malota would like to dedicate this song to the Human Beings who did not survive the migration, by sea or by land, and to all those who, despite succeeding, are still victims of violence, racism and discrimination.

lyrics

I left my shoes among the seashells on the seashore
I left my soul in a jar with my last written words
I left my working suit so you'll wash the dead man clothes
I left my voice in the earth and it will grow in the wind
And you father put me on this boat
With me you pour your hopes on this boat
But I cannot see love on this boat
We're dying to find a new life on this boat
I left my childhood dreams in the womb I will miss
I left my land trying to bring there justice for us all
I left my tears on the ground, hidden down in sand
I left my footprint where I'll rest when I am old
And you father put me on this boat
With me you pour your hopes on this boat
But I cannot see love on this boat
We're dying to find a new life on this boat
Dark silent
Deep water
Kills my voice
I can't scream
Fills my lungs
I can't breath
I can't see
And they enjoy seeing us on this boat
Delighted by us dying on this boat
They are masturbating on our tears on this boat.
