The Symbol |
My name is Juan from Monterrey |
I’ve been 10 years in the USA |
Repaired New Orleans after the hurricane |
I built a home and made a better way |
Now there’s fear, angry words saying «Go!» |
They say I’m a criminal, what do they know? |
Rounded up my friends without papers to show |
They wanna send us back, back to Mexico |
They say I’m a criminal, that’s what they say |
My children were born, born in the USA |
They say these children, they too must go |
But their home is here, not Mexico |
From where I now stand on this alluvial ground |
Where waves of immigrants laid their bundles down |
And the symbol of freedom must stand the test of time |
Built stronger than words that divide |
They say I’m a criminal, that’s what they say |
My children were born, born in the USA |
They say these children, they too must go |
But their home is here, not Mexico |
They say I’m a criminal, that’s what they say |
My children were born, born in the USA |
They say these children, they too must go |
But their home is here, not Mexico |
