The Truth (La Verdad)
1: Let me tell you 'bouta young boy from Santa Ana.
Playing music with the band was the only thing that ever mattered.
I never really listened muchto Rock 'n' Roll, grew up on James Brown, Motownand Latin Souland that's the truth.
All my homies were of serious latino persuasion.
They taught me how to find the groove despite my sole lack of pigmentation.
They took a little boy with shiny shoesand they anointed me with Salsaand Rhythm and Blues, and Chorus: That's the truth, the whole truth, so help me God.
I can't pretend to be something I am not.
So if my midnight confession seems peculiar to you, well, it may sound crazy but itain't nothing but the truth.
Verse 2: Now me and Jesus had our own kind of understanding.
You see, He knew I wasn't no choirboy, but he wasn't all that demanding.
He knew I didn't always walk the line, but He was right there to cath me every timeand that's the truth.
Chorus:...
You may say it's impossible"Hey that ain't butterfly boy"I know it sounds so incredible, but it's the truth.
Es la verdad, as
