KATHERINE VEGA - Puerto Rican Dreams lyrics

(spoken) I know everyone has dreams But this is dedicated to my Puerto Rican Nation La realidad impiesa con un sueno Sigan soniando ( Chorus ) Puerto Rican dreams of lots of money Puerto Rican dreams of fancy cars Puerto Rican dreams of great big houses Puerto Rican Dreams reaching for stars When I was young and was nobody I didnt have a dime My parents tried to take care of me But there was just no time Cause when youre poor you always worry Where monies coming from And all that you can really have are Puerto Rican dreams ( To Chorus ) My grandmother she took care of me She gave me all her love But I could never give her the things That she was dreaming of Cause when youre poor your always working But still its not enough So all that she could really have are Puerto Rican dreams ( To Chorus ) I spent my whole life chasing money And everything Id buy Didnt have time to love my family So life just pa**ed us by My parents they live far away now And my grandmother died Now that Im rich I finally know theres Some things money cant buy But it is something deep inside us That reaches for the sky And that is why well always have Puerto Rican dreams ( To Chorus )
