El Inmigrante Lyrics - Singles - Mike The King

[Intro] 

You know. 

Sometimes I don't understand people's mind. 

We the Immigrants are not what you say we are sir, 

and I'm not coming to disrespect anybody 

but I want you to think about it. 

Listen. 

Yo! 

[Verse 1] 

Born '97 

From Guatemala arrived 

Eduardo Hernandez, Looking for a better life 

poverty pushed him 

to look for a change 

and go to cross the border seemed to be a good chance. 

He dreamed with a better life 

where there was no worries 

Truly talent was running all over in his veins 

and for anything you wanted 

he would find a way to tell 

a guy with a noble heart 

I bet you can tell 

a really good friend who I wish you've met. 

He went across the desert and also Rio Bravo 

being close to die cuz the coyote left him behind 

He was alone worried and was walking blind. 

He didn't know where to go and alone aground 

running from ICE to not get caught 

fighting with his life all he wanted was to live 

to accomplish the american dream. 

[Hook] 

I wanna know who gave them the right 

of my color and where I'm from criticize 

asking where I'm from and where I'm goin' 

What do you care just let me be myself 

We are latinos and we stay everywhere 

put yo hands up and put up our brown pride 

for the ones in here and the ones who died 

the honor of the people who had to say goodbye. 

[Verse 2] 

I want to know 

who happy life haven't dreamed 

never be worried by the time to pay bills 

and enjoy every second that God has give 

the reason of most people in here. 

But nevertheless, is it how it looks 

you can see new cars, money and even a rich look 

but discrimination and segregation is in this life 

to everything you love you have to say goodbye 

and has to come and learn a new language to talk 

and this white motherfucker say we came to disturb. 

There was Eduardo spittin' bars on the corner of the street 

police came to take him put him in the clink 

treat him really bad cuz he was illegally here 

and the reason of being arrested cuz he looked like Hispanic 

workin' on construction 

dreamin' become a rapper 

a worker guy looked up with the gangsters. 

[Hook] 

[Verse 3] 

I got the call 

said: "Eduardo was locked up" 

I was really surprised and I said 

What the fuck? 

He had no family here 

so he was alone 

because his friends 

to see him weren't allowed. 

A whole month already passed 

it felt like a year 

my nigga just called me said Eduardo got killed 

I was in the booth 

and I started to cry 

and ask myself why? 

all he wanted was a good life 

we woulda record together to welcome him back 

that was the future and the life that he really wanted. 

Everything I do 

goes dedicated to him 

every page 

every time when I'm on the stage. 

He always told me don't care 

about what they say 

gotta be your heart who decide 

and not them 

"We coming from the ground and we going up 

Don't forget about me; when you get to the top" 

[Hook] 

[Outro] 

I've seen a lot of people 

who criticize others 

because they leave their countries 

next time go and meet them first 

and you will know the reasons. 

Call me an immigrant if you want 

I'm not from here anyways 

and I say it proudly 

So what?
