Little did I know when in this island I arrived
Angry, depressed and for sure sleep deprived
That this place has a special spirit
Easy to feel it, if you're not too scared to near it
Not to realise this place is magic
Would bring me to tears, it would be kinda tragic
Cause if you end up here, lost and confused
It's not a coincidence, it's because you have to
Cause the island calls only those who need a change
Those stuck in that limbo where the world seems so strange
From Las Palmas to Mogan
It's a trip around the Sun in Gran Canaria
From Las Palmas to Mogan
It's a trip around the Sun in Gran Canaria
But soon you will be sane
Cause through suffering and pain
Your spirit will change
For letting love reign
The island grounds you and brings you back
When you resurrect, you won't be a hopeless wreck
Then you'll be fresh and restored
Ready to stand up and open new doors
I've seen dunes, jungles, volcanos and hills
Beaches and mountains that give you the chills
Those microcosmos appear disappear
Product of Africa since million years
From Las Palmas to Mogan
It's a trip around the Sun in Gran Canaria
From Las Palmas to Mogan
Taking in all that you can
With the power of the Moon and the power of the Sun
Where the magic intertwines
Between the mystic and divine
There some answers you'll find
Cause you previously were blind
Looking up every night for Venus and Mars
Swimming with the Moon in a sea of stars
When you lack direction and energy to burn
It’s the island calling and it's time to return
The Island welcomes any sort of creature
From surfers to preachers, pirates and teachers
People on the island can sleep in caves
Other can dance to psychedelic raves
This magical island is like a big Mum
It offers you shelter, honey and rum
From Las Palmas to Mogan
It's a trip around the Sun in Gran Canaria
From Las Palmas to Mogan
Taking in all that you can
With the power of the Moon and the power of the Sun

(Verses by the Canarian poet Tomás Morales)
Atlántico infinito, tú que mi canto ordenas
Cada vez que mis pasos me llevan a tu parte
Siento que nueva sangre palpita por mis venas
Y, a la vez que mi cuerpo, cobra salud mi arte
El alma temblorosa se anega en tu corriente
Con ímpetu ferviente
Henchidos los pulmones de tus brisas saladas
Y a plenitud de boca
Un luchador te grita ¡Padre! desde una roca
De estas maravillosas Islas Afortunadas

We've Gotta Do It
03:28
|

How many times, how many times
You fell on the ground
And you told yourself to quit
How many times, so many times
You lost at first round
And you excused yourself to sleep
Well they tell you you can do it if you dream
They don't tell you though to reset your self esteem
How many times, how many times
You'll listen to this sound
Until you bring yourself to leap
'Cause that's all it takes
'Cause that's all it takes to reach the peak
'Cause that's all it takes
The rise is hard but it ain't so steep
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
How many times, how many times
You didn't like what you found
And you couldn't let it be
How many times, so many times
You felt like you drowned
Though you never were at sea
Well they tell you you can't play if you can't swim
They don't tell you though it's easier than it seems
How many times, how many times
You'll listen to this sound
Until you bring yourself to leap
'Cause that's all it takes
'Cause that's all it takes to reach the peak
'Cause that's all it takes
Leave your future self in peace
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me
'Cause you've got to do it
I'll do it for you, you'll do it for me

Parece facil perderse
Es mas probable que te encuentres
Todo parece estar en paz
Porque la calle nunca miente
Gente que llega, gente que va siguiendo su rutina
Quien trabaja, quien sueña
Quien se refugia en una esquina
Los santos de la calle están aquí
Saben lo que significa igualdad
El secreto esta allí para vivir en libertad
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que disfruta su vida y trabajo
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Porque el Amor gana contra todo
Vamos a ver
Vamos a ver
Vamos a ver
La torre de Atlas inspira a la ciudad una nueva realidad
Aquí la vida no es obsoleta
Bienvenidos a La Isleta
Mario camina feliz por la calle
Gracias a El Bar Milán y El Capitán
Todos merecen una parada
En la tienda de la amistad
Tengo suerte de poder
Llamar a este laberinto mi hogar
Aquí se deja renacer
Aquí se aprende a perdonar
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que disfruta su vida y trabajo
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que te ayuda cuando tu estas abajo
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que te ayuda cuando tu estas abajo
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que disfruta su vida y trabajo
Las cosas de palacio van despacio
Mi hermano Chacho esta seguro
Con paciencia veremos que
Nos depara el futuro
El mundo es muy loco we need more people like Paco
Gente buena que disfruta su vida y trabajo
El mundo es muy loco we need more people like Paco
Gente buena que te ayuda cuando tu estas abajo
El mundo es muy loco
We need more people like Paco
Gente buena que disfruta su vida y trabajo
El mundo es muy loco we need more people like Paco
Porque el Amor gana contra todo
Vamos a ver
Vamos a ver
Vamos a ver

Mary Sánchez

Recuerdo cuando llegué aquí por primera vez
Un chico perdido, sin rumbo ni meta
Pero tu estatua a mi me llamó
Y me enseñó a ver la belleza
En cada rincón de esta tierra
A escuchar la naturaleza
Desde el mar hasta la sierra
A no tener miedo de seguir los sueños
Y a ser fiel a las raíces
Porque en este mundo no somos dueños
Solo invitados felices
Tu historia nos prueba
Que la música es el idioma universal
Une a la gente, nos hace soñar
Y hace que el mundo sea menos brutal
Canta, canta, Mary Sánchez
Nuestra querida anfitriona
Gran mujer, una Canariona
Mary Sánchez, Mary Sánchez
Una dama legendaria
Una amiga, una madre Canaria
Canta, canta, Mary Sánchez
Tu voz es el eco de nuestra historia
Para siempre en nuestra memoria
Timple en mano, y en el corazón
Néstor y Los Bandama
Para el mundo cantando sobre la isla
Entre la realidad y la fama
Aunque yo sea un visitante
Siento dentro que la isla
Te respeta y te agradece
Que le cantaras toda la vida
Mientras miraba tu estatua
Escuché algo familiar
Tu voz, viva y real, me dijo:
"Sigue adelante, el arte es vital
Así cada mañana agradezco a la isla
Por nuestro encuentro
A través de la estatua sobre la que
Canto en este cuento
Canta, canta, Mary Sánchez
Nuestra querida anfitriona
Gran mujer, una Canariona
Mary Sánchez, Mary Sánchez
Una dama legendaria
Una amiga, una madre Canaria
Canta, canta, Mary Sánchez
Tu voz es el eco de nuestra historia
Para siempre en nuestra memoria
Canta, canta, Mary Sánchez
Nuestra querida anfitriona
Gran mujer, una Canariona

Drives Me Mad
04:32
|
|||
Well I don't know what makes me mad
What drives me crazy, makes me sad
All those thoughts sailing
Through my head
I might have searched
In the wrong places
I crossed eyes
With few fake faces
But I push forward
And I leave no traces
I hunt for a smile
On a stranger's face
My shadows follow
But I don't mind
'Cause I follow shades
As a jack of all trades
And I met the devil
In the middle of a parade
I was wearing a mask
And time was fleeting so fast
He did not recognise me
'Cause I wasn't myself
But he came back for you
And that drove me so mad
He did not respect you
That wasn't fair
But I follow my shadows now
And I am not afraid
Well I don't know what makes me mad
What drives me crazy and makes me sad
All those thoughts sailing through my head
Are sinking now
But you found someone else
And I felt like a fool
But I loved you too much
To tell you that wasn't cool
We said you'd be back
Sooner than later we had said
'Cause we had a deal
We had a pact
So take my shadows now
It's all I have left

Breathe In Breathe Out
03:14
|
|||
Life seems hard to understand
You've got too much to handle
It's getting out of hand
But when you stop to demand
Things are gonna come your way
Letting go is the key
To realise which path to take
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breath out
In life I'm always a beginner
But this time is all we get
And you may think I'm just a sinner
But I'm learning step by step
You're missing every train
It's driving you insane
But there's another ride to take
This world is spinning fast
But nobody comes last
So give yourself a break
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breathe out
Can you take it?
Can you take it?
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breathe out
Breathe in, Breathe out
Can you take it?
Can you take it?

Free At Last
02:34
|
|||
I have been around this place
Never found the key
I was often led astray
By my own anxiety
I was restless, I was mad
I was lost inside my head
Wanted answers on a plate
´Cause my questions couldn't wait
Funny how life lessons
Always arrive on time
I was free at last
I was free at last
Willingly, unconsciously
Falling for the same mistakes
Burning bridges, cursing faith
Craving reasons to escape
All my dreams and all my hopes
Suddenly were dying away
Only when I faced my ghosts
I learned I was in a play
Quit fearing my doubts
Began doubting my fear
I was free at last
I was free at last
I was free at last
I am free at last

To The Sunset
03:59
|
|||
I say love, love
Every part of you
On this long journey
That starts and ends with you
I say love, love
Everyone you see
Cause nothing lasts forever
And it's them, it's you, it's me
I've been driving all around
Tryin´ to find a place for my head to rest
But my inner compass tells me
That it's time to go to the West
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset
To the sunset
I say love, love
Everything you see
Cause soon it'll disappear
Just like the sun into the sea
I've been living all my life
As if it was a final test
But I'm slowly understanding
It's enough to give your best
All my friends were fighting for
Just to find a place in the first row
We are so lucky to be present
At the best show in the world
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset
To the sunset
I say North, South, West, East
North, South, West, East
Always heading West
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset, to the sunset
To the sunset
To the sunset
To the sunset

Rise Again
05:44
|
|||
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
Not too long ago, I was really really small
Never crossed my mind that I could be part of the whole
But as a kid I never doubted men's and nature's worth
Anyone was welcome to play on this Earth
Then I have learned all your lessons
And survived your many schools
Only to realise I've learned more from art and breaking rules
I think I understood that few decide who is in need
But I'll keep rising ́til compassion wins over greed
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
With time I started boxing with my thoughts and reason
We all deserve a decent life and no one should feel imprisoned
We all laugh, we all cry, we all live on this rock
We all know that only with falling you learn how to walk
You can chain us and convince yourself that you've got the key
But inside our soul will always be free
And for you vultures out there, who think you pull all the strings
We remind you that without us you would be Nothing.
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
We ́re all fruits and flowers of the same plant
We should bow to Nature, we are only here to rent
'Cause brothers and sisters, we are sons of the same Mother
Fear not to understand that together we have the power
They can silence us, laugh at us and pretend they cannot hear
Make us doubt of each other just to generate some fear
They can try to deceive us and continue the tease
Hoping to avoid the turmoil
But our voices and freedom will never cease
To blossom from the soil
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May it be the last thing that I can
Until the last beat of my heart
Even if everything is falling apart
I will rise again
Rise again
Rise, rise, rise again
You can push me down
You can crash me on the ground
But I will rise again
May it be the last thing that I can
'Cause I have had enough
Had enough, had enough
Had had had had enough
But I will rise again
May be the last thing that I can
Until the last beat of my heart
Even if everything is falling apart
I will rise again
Rise again
Rise, rise, rise again

Qué sabía yo al llegar a este mar
Con rabia, depresión y un sueño pa’ contar Que esta isla tiene un espíritu especial
Es fácil percibirlo si te quieres acercar
No llegar a conocer la magia del lugar Sería una tragedia, como pa’ llorar
Si terminaste aquí, perdido y confundido
No es por coincidencia, ella te ha elegido
La isla llama a los que necesitan ya cambiar
Los perdidos en el limbo que de él quieren fugar
De Las Palmas a Mogán
Hacia el Sol viajarán en Gran Canaria De Las Palmas a Mogán
Hacia el Sol viajarán en Gran Canaria
Pronto te aliviarás, porque al margen del dolor Tu alma mudará, abrazando el amor
Echa raíz en la isla y volverás a la vida Nadarás a la orilla desde tu nave hundida Con pilas recargadas verás nuevas puertas
Si quieres acercarte estarán abiertas
Vi las dunas, las junglas, la montaña y la colina El volcán y unas playas que te dan piel de gallina Microcosmos aparecen y se vuelven a ocultar Un legado de siglos desde África por mar
De Las Palmas a Mogán
Hacia el Sol viajarán en Gran Canaria
De Las Palmas a Mogán
Vivir todo sin afán
Con la fuerza de la Luna hacia el Sol regresarán
Aquí la magia juega fino
Entre lo místico y divino
Se responde a tus preguntas
Si con la isla ya te juntas
Cada noche nadando hacia la Luna bella
En búsqueda de Venus en este mar de estrellas Si te quedas corto en fuerza y vigor
La isla te llama a volver a tu albor
Ella sí acoge a todas criaturas
Surferos, piratas, obispos y curas
Aquí si lo quieres se duerme en las cuevas Se baila y se canta hasta que te conmuevas Este lugar es un templo de amor
Te ofrece refugio, ron miel y calor
De Las Palmas a Mogán
Hacia el Sol viajarán en Gran Canaria
De Las Palmas a Mogán
Vivir todo sin afán
Con la fuerza de la Luna hacia el Sol regresarán
