Immigrant |
| Yeah, yeah |
| Look |
| This ain’t a tan, my skin the same color as sand |
| From the motherland, look down and see the world in my hands |
| Government bans, I’m just here to fuck up the plans |
| Dance after dance, just like the world is stuck in a trance (Amen) |
| There’s nothin' more priceless than bein' free |
| Immigrant, that’s why they hate me just for bein' me |
| We ain’t wanna leave overseas, we were under siege |
| Leave us in shallow graves, but still the love is deep |
| Bloodline royal, need our seat back |
| 40s in the foil, had to boil where I sleep at |
| Tell you that they love you, that they loyal, they can keep that |
| They don’t want the soil, just the oil that’s beneath that |
| Back to feed the people, fuck your pity and your feedback |
| Racin' with time, it’s gettin' hard to even keep track |
| They sold democracy for a discount |
| Nothing’s addin' up, that’s why I gotta make this shit count, uh |
| When freedom comes, better lock your door |
| Freedom comes, it ain’t safe anymore |
| Freedom comes, oh, no, don’t look away |
| Freedom comes, had to wait for the day |
| (Wait, wait, wait, for freedom) |
| Yeah, lock us behind a wall like we was Mexicans |
| Broad-day shootouts in front of pedestrians |
| Young niggas ride in hearses 'fore they touch a Benz |
| Muslims loadin' up AKs, dead presidents |
| Call from the White House, they said meet with Trump |
| I’m only comin' if they pardon and put Meech in front |
| Politic with Robert Kraft while we’re eatin' lunch |
| Tellin' him 'bout how Kaepernick tryna free us up |
| I don’t wanna hear no Stormy Daniels |
| When a little girl got shot in the head, ain’t see no cameras |
| From no CNN, I’m in the trenches where niggas vanish |
| And they never show that shit on the TV, it’s propaganda |
| No proper manners, dropped out of school, I got a hammer |
| Get locked in slammers 'fore we could read, no time to scramble |
| Soon as I came out my mama womb it’s time to gamble |
| 'Cause your life on the line when you’re young, Black or Spanish, word up |
| When freedom comes, better lock your door |
| Freedom comes, it ain’t safe anymore |
| Freedom comes, oh, no, don’t look away |
| Freedom comes, had to wait for the day |
| (Wait, wait, wait, for freedom) |
| Huh, oh Lord, we need a breakthrough |
| Lock our babies up and then they tell us that it’s fake news |
| Yes, Lord, we need a breakthrough |
| Build a fuckin' wall, I guarantee the people break through |
| I went to Hell and back, you can tell 'em that |
| Can’t interact with all these snakes so I’m scalin' back |
| They already set the traps for a million rats |
| I’m goin' numb prayin' I can get the feelin' back |
| All I hear on the news is collusion |
| But I guess parole just rushin' to conclusions, huh? |
| It’s an illusion that’s fueled by confusion |
| We can’t lose if no one feuds within the movement, huh? |
| They watch us suffer for amusement |
| Lose when they only run until they lose wind |
| European plates on them foreign bumpers |
| The president would rather see us wearin' orange jumpers |
| Our land is holy, our land is history |
| Our land is ours and fuck that, victory |
| Our land is holy, our land is history |
| We used to be minorities, now we’re a country |
| On alert about immigration |
| The President has deliberately chose this narrative, vilifying Black and Brown |
| folk |
| We are a border land, we are border people, we are… |
| …country comment… |
| He’s talking about… |
| …immigration, as we know it… |
| …border crossers. |
| The fact of the matter is that he’s trying to get everyone in this country |
| afraid |
| …he's trying to get people… |
| You don’t hear him using this narrative when he’s talking about other |
| immigrants in this… |
| We are all immigrants |
