Şarkı sözleri

[Verse 1]
In this album there's a picture of the ladies at Daniella's
You can tell it's from the 80s by the volume of their hair
There's Usnavi, just a baby
'87, Halloween
If it happened on this block, Abuela was there
[Verse 2]
Every afternoon I came, she'd make sure I did my homework
She could barely write her name, but even so
She would stare at the paper and tell me, bueno, let's review
Why don't you tell me everything you know?
[Verse 3]
In this album there's a picture of Abuela in Havana
She is holding a rag doll, unsmiling, black and white
I wonder what she's thinking
Does she know that she'll be leaving
For the city on a cold dark night?
And on the day they ran did she dream of endless summer?
Did her mother have a plan or did they just go?
Did somebody sit her down and say, Claudia, get ready
To leave behind everything you know?
Everything I know
What do I know?
[Verse 4]
In this folder there's a picture from my high school graduation
With the program, mint condition
And a star beside my name
Here's a picture of my parents as I left for California
She saved everything we gave her
Every little scrap of paper
And our lives are in these boxes
While the woman who held us is gone
But we go on, we grow
So hold tight, Abuela, if you're up there
I'll make you proud of everything I know
Thank you for everything I know
