Americano Dream Video (MV)

Growing up... growing up as a La

Growing up as a Latino in America foul
Beef the whites and the blacks, everyday was wild
And since I'm not Puerto Rican, Dominican
Colombian or Mexican, never fit in with the crowd
Still I let em know Honduras in the casa, that mean house
Mi gente be the most humble but de paiz be proud
You see that hype when a Puerto rican and Mexican bout?
I see division between us, they got us conquered for now
You probably never nada once ain't ever saw that till now
I've always seen things so differently, I was that awkward child
Lil bastard child, running wild, smoking loud
Ya know, statistically speaking I'm not supposed to be out
Wanna take out the pnedisret for trying kick us all out
What the f*ck's freedom of speech having to edit that out?
Wasn't till I tried to come up, saw they holding us down
America ain't give us nothing but a grocery isle

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream, get yours

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream, get yours

Tears raining from my eyes
Resent my dad for leaving so don't claim my Ecuadorian side
Grew up broke, I hustled, cheated the system, life wasn't fair
Found that easy to do, being I spawned from an affair
Don't ask me why I blaze
Talking to God, question your ways
How I get a sister out of rape?
How you promote forgiveness
Then have the ones closest to me betray me to test me?
Why Tio Ed had to molest me?
Why I had to watch my Mom get smacked?
Why I let these things build up in me till I collapse?
Why I had to be in Cali by myself when Grandma passed?
Walking home from work, I cried on Augora Ave
Swear I heard Grandma tell me she got in and I smiled
Told her tell all the rapper legends about my freestyle!
She said 'garding all your questions, listen up good now
You don't gotta understand to overcome things child

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream
Get yours!

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream
Get yours!

Now the guns aimed at us, branded illegal aliens
But first throw the plague at us
Slaughter us
Deport our parents, make bastards out of us
Then our father and forefather us
And while you're at it, reactivate hate status
What a nightmare is the American dream
You do Erica dirty while Maria keeps the house clean
Rewrite the books of history, remind us in class
Broadcast crime
The design is vast
I ain't playing when I say they aim at you
Date cuenta- Dora the explora looks like but that ain't you
Remember love yourself because they hate you
I said remember love yourself because they hate you
Wanna take out the pnedisret for trying kick us all out
What the f*ck's freedom of speech having to edit that out?
Wasn't till I tried to come up, saw they holding us down
America ain't give us nothing but a grocery isle

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream, get yours

Left home, left home, left everyone I know
Opportunity, here I come what you need me to do cuz
Si se puede, work ethic supreme
No hay sleep in el Americano Dream, get yours
