Lyrics
Pintan la cara a la muralla vieja
mientras mi barrio de la foto se aleja.
El eco de un tambor que ya no escuchan,
ahogado por la prisa y la construcción.
[Chorus]
Traen cemento y arena,
pero aquí la sal condena

y nos devuelva este pulso descalzo.
Que el mangle crezca sobre el concreto frío.
[Outro]
Solo queda la sal...
y el cemento.
