I speak to you in jesus's name

As jesus speaks through me
如同耶稣借我之口传声
The evil we do can't be blamed upon our destiny
我们犯下的罪孽 不该归咎于命运
I have walked through the valley of deathrow to the shore
我曾走过死囚之谷 直至彼岸
I have stumbled through silvery water to my savior my vador
踉跄蹚过银色水域 投向救主怀抱
It took me four years to learn
耗费四年光阴才醒悟
I was in prison not in church
身处囹圄而非圣堂
And two more to begin the book of my soul's search
又用两载提笔书写灵魂的救赎
Time is an ocean of endless tears
时间是无尽泪水的海洋
A wild boy from the streets of el barrio

An orphan from the hills of mayagez
一个来自马亚圭斯山区的孤儿
And when i wrote my story
当我写下我的故事
The words flew from the page
文字从纸上飞起
And my soul in solitary
而我孤独的灵魂
Escaped it's iron cage

Time is an ocean of endless tears
时间是无尽泪水的海洋
Mama i got your letter today

The next time that you write i'll be transferred far away

I'm leaving green haven's towers of stone

Where the latin population will soon be minus one

Time is an ocean of endless tears
时间是无尽泪水的海洋
I know how hard it's been for you these many years

You say the aguinaldo makes you dream of home

Where once we strolled the beach at el malecon

Go back don't you worry i am your grownup son

The politics of prison are a mirror of the street

That's what they call this place

But look around and you will see

A forest and a prison
森林与监狱交织
Where the snow and guards are white

If you want to keep your sanity

You'll teach yourself to write
唯有提笔自救
You were a child of sixteen
十六岁的少年身躯
With a twelve year old mind

You came here numb and battered
你带着满身伤痕麻木到来
By the streets i left behind
告别那些我曾走过的街头巷尾
I'll take the evil in me

And turn it into good
悉数转化为善念
Though all your institutions

Never thought i could
都认定我无可救药
So now i'll turn to say goodbye

I'll keep your image in my eye
但会永远铭记你的容颜

I'll keep your image with me till the day i die

Time is an ocean of endless tears
时间是无尽泪水的海洋
