Letra de San Quentin

[Verso 1]
Windy coastal California
Cradle me, City of Angels
I know, I know it won't come easily
Return to the source of light indefinitely
Call a cab, 6 a.m
Tears just before I'm driving
Hold up, scene check, am I crazy
Greet him and release him from mental slavery
Walked the yellow line, penitentiary
Feeling off-shore wind come wink at me
Weeping like a waterfalls
To the call of the ocean
Grandfather, please bring me your medicine

[Pre Coro]
I've come a long way to tell you this story
There's no turning back now
Angels come when you least expect 'em
I've seen some crazy dreams manifested

[Coro]
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you

[Post-Chorus]
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away

[Verso 2]
Sunrise flower, San Francisco
Have you ever met an angel?
I know, I know only the half of it
One side of the story, now I cannot forget
Here we go, another chapter, one step closer
Needed some closure, cross a couple borders
Got into the mind of a tortured warrior
I'm not responsible for a dark [east?] past
On a journey from the head to heart
Do you think you can last?
Well, maybe these are growing pains for such eloquence
Grandmother came and brought the evidence

[Pre Coro]
I've come a long way to tell you this story
There's no turning back now
Angels come when you least expect them
I've seen some crazy dreams manifested

[Coro]
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
A life for a life, I give mine to you

[Post-Chorus]
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away

[Puente]
I may be a stranger, but I come as a brother
We are not so different from one another
The man that you become and the child you are
Your anger is a strength, but it only goes so far

[Coro]
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
A life for a life, I give mine to you
