Letra y significado de 'Streets of Minneapolis', la nueva canción de Bruce Springsteen contra Trump y el ICE: "Cantando a través de la niebla sangrienta"

La lucha abierta entre varios artistas contra el gobierno de Donald Trump no es nada nuevo y Bruce Springsteen es una de sus voces más potentes en los actos reivindicativos contra los actos violentos del ICE. Y ahora, una vez más, el 'Boss' ha vuelto a dar un paso al frente contra el Presidente estadounidense y ha lanzado, de forma inesperada, una canción en la que carga duramente contra la persecución masiva y violenta de los inmigrantes.

Según avanzó el propio artista en sus redes sociales, Streets of Minneapolis es una canción que escribió el pasado sábado, la grabó en un día y, después, simplemente la lanzó. "Está dedicada a la gente de Minneapolis, a nuestros inocentes vecinos inmigrantes y en memoria de Alex Pretti y Renee Good", escribe.

En ella, el de Nueva Jersey habla de la ciudad como una que "lucha contra el fuego y el hielo" y define a Trump como un "invasor" que llegó para "imponer su ley".

Asimismo, enaltece a los vecinos de Minneapolis como representantes de "la justicia". "Sus voces sonando por la noche y había huellas ensangrentadas donde debía de haber habido misericordia", reza uno de sus versos.

Letra de 'Streets of Minneapolis', Bruce Springsteen

Through the winter's ice and cold

Down Nicollet Avenue

A city aflame fought fire and ice

'Neath an occupier's boots

King Trump's private army from the DHS

Guns belted to their coats

Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law

Or so their story goes

Against smoke and rubber bullets

In the dawn's early light

Citizens stood for justice

Their voices ringing through the night

And there were bloody footprints

Where mercy should have stood

And two dead, left to die on snow-filled streets

Alex Pretti and Renee Good

Oh, our Minneapolis, I hear your voice

Singing through the bloody mist

We'll take our stand for this land

And the stranger in our midst

Here in our home, they killed and roamed

In the winter of '26

We'll remember the names of those who died

On the streets of Minneapolis

Trump's federal thugs beat up on

His face and his chest

Then we heard the gunshots

And Alex Pretti lay in the snow dead

Their claim was self-defense, sir

Just don't believe your eyes

It's our blood and bones

And these whistles and phones

Against Miller and Noem's dirty lies

Oh, our Minneapolis, I hear your voice

Crying through the bloody mist

We'll remember the names of those who died

On the streets of Minneapolis

Now they say they're here to uphold the law

But they trample on our rights

If your skin is black or brown, my friend

You can be questioned or deported on sight

In our chants of "ICE out now"

Our city's heart and soul persists

Through broken glass and bloody tears

On the streets of Minneapolis

Oh, our Minneapolis, I hear your voice

Singing through the bloody mist

Here in our home, they killed and roamed

In the winter of '26

We'll take our stand for this land

And the stranger in our midst

We'll remember the names of those who died

On the streets of Minneapolis

We'll remember the names of those who died

On the streets of Minneapolis

ICE out (ICE out)

ICE out (ICE out)

ICE out (ICE out)

ICE out (ICE out)

ICE out (ICE out)

ICE out
