OYE MI CANTO

------------



(Gloria Estefan, Clay Ostwald and Jorge Casas)





Take me... only for what I am

You've got a right to speak your mind

You've gotta take a stand



No one... has the right to say

This is right or that is wrong

It isn't just one way



Find common ground

Go in between

Things aren't always what they seem



Someday it'll be alright

Changes happen overnight



People, let's give each other room

If we're gonna work it out

We better make it soon



Love is... love is such a common word

When it's pride we mistake for love

Isn't that absurd



Why always take

The upper hand

It's better to understand



Someday it'll be alright

Changes happen overnight



I believe in love but with no conditions

Oye mi canto

And giving in sometimes

Doesn't make it submission

Oye mi canto

Hate is so common it's almost tradition

Oye mi canto

Come on let's leave it behind

And make that transition
