Alabanza

She was found and pronounced at the scene She was already lying in bed The paramedics said That her heart gave out I mean, that's basically what they said They said a combination of the stress and the heat Why she never took her medicine, I'll never understand I'd like to think she went out in peace With pieces of bread crumbs in her hand Abuela Claudia had simple pleasures She sang the praises of things we ignore Glass Coke bottles, bread crumbs, a sky full of stars She cherished these things She'd say "Alabanza" Alabanza means to raise this thing to God's face and to sing Quite literally "praise to this" When she was here, the path was clear And she was just here She was just here Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza, alabanza Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza, alabanza Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza, alabanza Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza, alabanza Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza Alabanza Alabanza Alabanza a Dona Claudia, Senor Alabanza Alabanza Alabanza Alabanza Alabanza
