  I'ma tell you 'bout a disease, straight up
  It's called Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, ATL for short
  Caused by HTLV-1, a virus of a certain sort
  
  It's endemic in the Caribbean, Central and South America
  So we did a search, a review, gatherin' data
  Tryna see if this disease gets recognition
  In these regions, and the characteristics of the cases, our mission
  
  The median age, 49.4 years, lower than in Japan
  That's what we found, a different trend, man
  Most Brazilian states, and some other countries, don't recognize ATL
  But it should be considered, no doubt, in T-cell leukemias/lymphomas, we can tell
  
  The lack of serology for HTLV-1, it's a shame
  And the phenotypic identification of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, same game
  Resources are scarce, that's why they can't detect
  But with help from foreign research centers, they can connect
  
  We need a huge effort, step up the surveillance game
  In South and Central America, and the Caribbean, that's our aim
  Public organs should support the health professionals, no doubt
  Let's improve the ATL diagnosis, that's what it's all about!
