SAL
I know you're trying to protect me
Searching for another truth
With your language and your poetry
From my ignorance and youth
Hey I did not come to argue
My life never made much sense
I just wish that I could hug you
You're my only defense
I don't understand your writing
I could barely sign my name
All I ever learned was fighting
But I'm not the only one to blame
The streets were dark with danger
I have to stand up for my friends
In a land where I'm a stranger
And the hatred never ends
INMATE

Comentarios: "Killer Wants to Go to College II" es una versión más introspectiva y emotiva que la primera. Aquí, Salvador Agrón expresa su vulnerabilidad, reconociendo su falta de educación y justificando su pasado violento como una respuesta al entorno hostil en el que creció. A diferencia del tono irónico de la primera parte, esta canción muestra su deseo genuino de redención, aunque la sociedad aún lo percibe con desconfianza.
