Gil Scott-Heron es un grande, uno que ya partió y nos dejó con lo que mejor sabía hacer; poesía. Sin quererlo, ni esperarlo, nos dice todo aquello que necesitamos oir pero no queremos. Como en la canción que les dejo hoy: Running. Primero en su versión original y más abajo con la colaboración de Jamie XX, especial para que suene a media carrera en tu tracklist. Para recordarte porqué corres.
So long Gil y gracias por este disco.
Because i always feel like running. Not away, because there is no such place. Because, if there was i would have found it by now.
Because it's easier to run, easier than staying and finding out you're the only one... who didn't run. Because running will be the way your life and mine will be described. As in "the long run". Or as in having given someone a "run for his money".
Because running makes me look like everyone else, though I hope there will ever be cause for that. Because I will be running in another direction, not running for cover. Because if I knew where cover was, i would stay there and never have to run for it.
Not running for my life, because I have to be running for something more value. To be running and not in fear. Because the thing i fear cannot be escaped, eluded, avoided, hidden from, protected from, gotten away from, not without showing the fear as i see it now.
Because closer, clearer, no sir, nearer. Because of you and because of that nice, that you quietly, quickly be causing. And because of you're going to see me run soon. And because you're going to know why i'm running then. You'll know then... Because i'm not going to tell you.
