I see, I know
What others don't see
What others don't know
What you yourselves cannot see
The disease thats been spread
The epidemic thats been caused
Among you my Puerto Rican men
Tell me this my loves,
For my Puerto Rican men are my heart
Who put the Heroin in, your hand?
The cocaine in our streets
Who benefits from the decline of my Puerto Rican men?
Who serves to profit from the loss of my Puerto Rican men?
Sure, you bought the dope from your Puerto Rican brother
Soon he'll be locked up; Taken away from another Puerto Rican mother
And you, you'll be hooked and start killing yourself slowly
Having suicidal thoughts when you're dope sick and lonely
My Puerto Rican men don't you see?
He brings the dope and you die
You sell the dope and you kill
Your brother
You end up locked up and you kill
Your mother
And you, you rot, dope sick and locked up
Either way he wins
Has you right where he wants you
Brother against brother
My Puerto Rican men
I want you to understand
Understand that you're needed
Needed to make our Puerto Rican babies
To raise our Puerto Rican sons
To stop the cycle
Protect our daughters
We need you,
To warn our sons about them
To show our sons a life without him
He's given you your habit
Weakened your mind
It weakens your soul
Your faith, your spirit
Makes you believe
Doesn't allow yo to see
But I see,
I see it every day
Every time
Every time I look into your eyes
So many Puerto Rican men
So many tortured souls and broken dreams
My Puerto Rican men
you are not alone
I feel your hurt
Know your pain
Hear your cries
Have watched you die
My Puerto Rican macho men
You are
our fathers,
brothers
sons,
and lovers
We- Your Puerto Rican women
Will fight for you
Die for you
But most of all we'll warn you
Warn you of what you are too blind to see
Show you exactly, who is
The enemy
Tell me,
Would you have been so quick to take the dope out of his hand?
Or would you have thought twice?
Been more cautious
My Puerto Rican men don't you see?
This is exactly what he's done
The only difference is the hand,
The hand where the poison lies
He gave the poison to your brother
Someone he knew you'd trust
One of your own
One of our own
And your brother sold it to you without ever thinking
Never thinking
He'd be killing
One of his own
One of our own
And you enjoyed it
Never thinking
You'd be hurting
One of your own
One of our own
So you see my Puerto Rican men
It's not that you're less than
It's not that you're not loved
It's that you simply cannot see
What I see
