Caro Padre in Deaf Havana

I arrived on time, in my mother's arms
And a name I didn't choose
I was blinded by the white of the hospital
And in that moment I was pure and absolute
Little did I know the moment died when it was young
When my father taught me half of right and wrong
He washed his hands of trust and left us penniless
Before my brain had chance to learn his foreign tongue

Even though I feel like I'm alright
Part of me is missing when I close my eyes
It's clear that you shine through me
In every mistake that can't be undone
As I'm getting older, oh it's clear what I've become

I am my father's son
I am my father's son
It's clear what I've become
I am my father's son

I do more than just share your name
I can feel your blood running through my veins
Because the lying, the cheating, the stealing
Oh it's transferred through
To me, from you

Even though I feel like I'm alright
Part of me is missing when I close my eyes
It's clear that you shine through me
In every mistake that can't be undone
As I'm getting older, oh it's clear what I've become

I am my father's son
I am my father's son
It's clear what I've become
I am my father's son

All of the months and the years that have gone by
You never once could find the time to tell me why
In all of the months and the years we've gone through
I tried my best to be myself but ended up turning into you

My father's son, my father's son
No, it's clear what I've become
Because I am my father's son
No, it's clear what I've become
