Lyrics:
(Chorus)
Ey this the life of an immigrant (x4)
Take a step in our shoes
Tell me where you stand
Does it mean you’re different if you’re just a little tan
Been so much division, and it’s hard to understand
So I’m hopin in the future everybody’s holdin hands
Just the life of an immigrant
(verse 1)
I’m representing Brazil
I came to get an education
And contribute as well
But can I stay, it’s a really tricky path
Gotta pay a thousand dollars
If u even wanna ask
And that’s only for a chance at a yes, it’s kinda rough
So now if I’m not selected, then I’ll H1B… outta luck
Funny, Here I fill out forms and say I’m latin or sumn
But then when I’m back in Brazil I don’t feel latin enough
And man it’s tough
And man it’s tough
JFK Speech
(Chorus)
That’s what it’s like
To climb
On borrowed time
Just hopin that the stars align
Show me a sign
A sign
Afraid I’ll find
That I lost what I left behind
Ey this the life of an immigrant (x4)
Take a step in our shoes
Tell me where you stand
Does it mean you’re different if you’re just a little tan
Been so much division, and it’s hard to understand
So I’m hopin in the future everybody’s holdin hands
(Verse 2)
1:53
I watch soccer
And all my family uses whatsapp
Momma’s bustin out the sandal if I talk back
Heavy accents, Lucca “what you call that”
But lots of positives to balance out the drawbacks
All my food is seasoned
My homies switch the languages to keep a secret
Warm hospitality with every greetin
But if the weather’s chilly then you know I’m freezin
Man I don’t know what to say
Entao mudei pro portugues
Se vocês tão entendendo é porque é pra vocês
Sinto falta de Sao Paulo, foi difícil mas fiquei
Sempre foi um sonho meu, mas desse eu nao acordei
I still got some goals to chase
I still got some somethin to prove
Gotta put on for my country
Gotta get us on the news
Know there’s obstacles I face
But I know I know I’m gettin through
Really love the USA
I really wish it loved me too
True…
This is the American Dream
It’s what the founding fathers wanted when they finally broke free
Some diversity of thought, could make us stronger indeed
And it’ll pay in major ways if you’re just patient to see
Jeez...
So man listen to me
I’m not trynna take your job
Trynna pay my taxes and contribute to the squad
All I’m really asking is to give us a chance
We all seek where we belong but you were born there in advance
Obama speech
(Chorus)
That’s what it’s like
To climb
On borrowed time
Just hopin that the stars align
Show me a sign
A sign
Afraid I’ll find
That I lost what I left behind
