A couple of songs,first one about the color of men.It's very single,even simple.Today I would write in another way but in 1986 it's was me.
Second, words by my friend Paco Rubio and music of mine...I hope you enjoy.....

11/02/1986 COLOR OF MEN A.BARO

Why's the white man destroying harmony?
Why's the black man staying under his feet?
Indian man was erased from the face of the world.

Why's the white man having every luxury?
Why's the black man dying in misery?
And the Red Skin Man was erased from the face of the world.

And the yellow man was cloistered in their mysticism
while the white man plays his role well
the black man's only considered in music and rythm
and the Indian man was erased from the face of the world.

Why's the white man losing time stupidly?
Why's not the black man shaking dominion totality?
So Indian Man was erased from the face of the world.

Music

And the yellow man was cloistered in their mysticism
while the white man plays his role well
the black man's only considered in music and rythm
and the Indian man was erased from the face of the world.

Why's the white man destroying harmony?
Why's the black man staying under his feet?
Indian man was erased from the face of the world.

19/02/1986 GENESIS F.RUBIO-A.BARO

There she had her being built
there she came into being
there out of one flesh
her tiny limbs started to
give her the perfect human shape.

Everything had been hollow darkness before
It had to be the fathomless wisdom of nature
there she cast a spark of living light
there the light started shining abright
though greater was there the darkness.

It was a light that shines
without realizing
that it is growing bright
it was a far-away glow
in the quiet shallow night.

It was the unconquered spark of life
(struggling always struggling) (2nd voice)
against the overwhelming overlasting
innermost darkness
and they keep on and on struggling
till in the end light fades
though darkness still remains.

It's nature itself which sprang up from darkness
the ever-bearing darkness which created the little light
there she came into being
there radiant grew the light
impregnated with eternal darkness

It was a light that shines
without realizing
that it is growing bright
it was a far-away glow
in the quiet shallow night.

And it became fully strong and alive
but never as strong though ever as alive
as the dark vault which embedded all her brightness
which rocked her on keep on her unaware
of her unique life
which from darkness itself shines.
