Intro (Wyclef):
Ladies and gents
Turn up this sound system
To the sound of Carlos Santana
And the GMBs
Ghetto blues from the refugee camp
Hook:
Oh Maria Maria
She reminds me of a westside story
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
She's livin' her life just like a movie star
Oh, Maria Maria
She fell in love in East L.A.
To the sounds of the guitar
Played by Carlos Santan
*guitar plays*
Verse 1:
Stop the looting, stop the shooting
Pick pocking on the corner
See as the rich is getting richer
The poor is getting poorer
Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinkin' of ways to make it better
In my mailbox there's an eviction letter
Somebody just said see you later
Bridge:
Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola
Ahora vengo mama chola (East coast)
Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola
Ahora vengo mama chola (West coast)
Hook:
Oh Maria Maria

Played by Carlos Santan
*guitar plays*
Verse 2:
I said a la favella los colores
The streets are getting hotter
There is no water
To put out the fire
Mi canto la esperanza
Se mira Maria on the corner
Thinkin' of ways to make it better
Then I looked up in the sky
Hoping of days of paradise

When the wind blows I can feel you through the weather
And even when we are apart
It feels like we are together

Santana is an American musical group founded by Mexican guitarist Carlos Santana, considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time. The band's music genre is primarily rock with Latin influences. Carlos Santana was born in Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco, Mexico, and moved to Tijuana with his family. There he learned to play music from his father, who was part of a mariachi group. His musical influences were the bluesmen of the 1950s and 1960s and the rock musicians. Tijuana was his initial training ground, playing in bars and perfecting his skills. After moving to the United States with his family, Santana settled in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he formed The Santana Blues Band, which later became simply Santana. The band achieved international success in the 1970s with albums like *Abraxas* (1970) and *Santana III* (1971), characterized by a psychedelic sound and fusion of rock, jazz, and Latin music. Some of the band's most representative songs are: "Black Magic Woman", "Oye Como Va", "Smooth" (in collaboration with Rob Thomas).

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
