I was born in puerto rico | |
We came here when i was a child | |
Before i reached the age of sixteen | |
I was running with the gang and we were wild | |
He keeps looking but he don't recognize me. | |
Some guy from lexington or park | |
Red beans and rice from kitchen windows | |
Supper-time and the barrio is dark. | |
No one knows you like i do | |
Nobody can know your heart the way i do | |
No one can testify to all that you've been through | |
But i will. | |
Sal & the vampires | |
I was born in puerto rico | |
And my blood is taino | |
Spanish caribbean my soul | |
Salvador | |
We came here wearing summer clothes in winter | |
Hearts of sunshine in the cold | |
Your family rented this apartment | |
You'd watch the street lamps from your perch | |
In the sacramental hour your stepfather in black | |
Preached the fire of the pentecostal church | |
No one knows you like i do | |
Nobody can know your heart the way i do | |
No one can testify to all that you've been through | |
But this will. | |
Sal & the vampires | |
I was born in puerto rico | |
Came here when i was a child. | |
Salvador | |
Small change and sunlight, then i left these streets for good. | |
My days as short as they were wild. | |
Carlos apache | |
I'm carlos apache | |

Your features blurred in every grainy photo | |
And fading headline of the daily news | |
Wiltwyck school for criminal children | |
Auburn, brooklyn house of d., | |
Dannemora, sing-sing, attica, | |
Greenhaven | |
Salvador | |
Twenty years inside, today you're free. | |
You cannot even read your story | |
The pages piling up in shame | |
Before the words released you, the guard would kill the light | |
The night you took the capeman for your name. | |
