Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y en la sociedad no tengo igualidad
Que yo te hice, yo te maltrate
A lo contrario las cosas fueron al reves
Pase por tu tierra ayyyy sin querer
A tu servicio estaba sin tener poder
No pude ni hablar que milagro que me dejan votar
Que tu sos blanco
Que yo soy negro
Que tu sos blanco
Que yo soy negro
Que tu sos blanco
Que yo soy negro
No importa el color de la piel
La sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Ehhh la sangre la sangre colora
No me la dañe de maldad
Lo que te digo no es mentira
Ese fluido si da vida
Negrita no seas boba
La sangre la sangre sangre colora
Ehhhh la sangre tiene calambre
Ehhhh la sangre tiene calambre
Ehhhh la sangre tiene calambre
Ehhhh la sangre tiene calambre
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Oye ven pá'ca pongame algo pa gozar
Cosa buena cosa buena yo te pongo a vacilar
A mi me gusta la puertorriqueña que sabe gozar
Que baile el nuevo ritmo que le canto para vacilar
La sangre la sangre la sangre
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Sangre son colora
Pero vengan vengan mujer vengan a vacilar
La sangre de un africano
Sirve pa los dominicanos
La sangre la sangre la sangre
The song Sangre Son Colora by Orquesta La Conspiración talks about race and equality. The lyrics start with the singer expressing that despite what others may say, he does not feel like he is equal in society. He refutes the claims that he mistreated someone, and instead, the opposite happened. The singer then talks about passing through someone's land unintentionally, where he was at their service without any power. He experiences the miracle of being able to vote while requesting to be left in peace.
The chorus emphasizes the message of the song, that the color of someone's skin should not matter because blood is the same color. Regardless of whether someone is black or white, their blood runs red and holds the same importance. In the bridge, the singer explains that blood gives life and tells the listener not to be foolish when discriminating based on skin color. Finally, the song concludes by inviting women to dance and enjoy the music as the blood of an African serves the Dominicans.
Overall, Sangre Son Colora is a socially conscious song that highlights the unimportance of race and the notion that all individuals are equal.
