In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Criado en la isla del coqui Puerto Rico es lo unico pa' mi
Honrado y alegre me siento de Yo ser Puertorriqueno.
Nunca vendere ,no te vendere...
Derramare sangre por mi bandera y no lo veo de otra manera
Tu odio me tiene agitado porque en mi patria me he dedicado.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.
Hecha pa alla!
No hay razon, razon por tu ignorancia acaba ya deja tu infancia
O es que eso se haria por nada por ver mi patria libre.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.
Nunca vendere (a mi patria) [x4]
Nunca Yo nunca vendere [x4]
Puerto Rico! Yo nunca vendere
Argentina! Yo nunca vendere
Brazil! Yo nunca vendere
Puerto Rico! Yo nunca vendere
Derramare sangre por mi bandera y no lo veo de otra manera
Tu odio me tiene agitado porque en mi patria me he dedicado.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.
Honrado y alegre me siento de Yo ser Puertorriqueno.
Nunca vendere ,no te vendere...
Derramare sangre por mi bandera y no lo veo de otra manera
Tu odio me tiene agitado porque en mi patria me he dedicado.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.
Hecha pa alla!
No hay razon, razon por tu ignorancia acaba ya deja tu infancia
O es que eso se haria por nada por ver mi patria libre.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.
Nunca vendere (a mi patria) [x4]
Nunca Yo nunca vendere [x4]
Puerto Rico! Yo nunca vendere
Argentina! Yo nunca vendere
Brazil! Yo nunca vendere
Puerto Rico! Yo nunca vendere
Derramare sangre por mi bandera y no lo veo de otra manera
Tu odio me tiene agitado porque en mi patria me he dedicado.
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando, no te rindas (sin empezar!)
Sigo buscando y chupando, practicando (no te rindas)
Sigo buscando y chupando deja ya de ignorar.
Orgullo! con orgullo Yo naci con orgullo voy a morir.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Orgullo is Spanish for PRIDE! This song is about being proud (Extremely) of yur country. It is not just native Spanish, it has heavy Puerto Rican slang.
