Lyrics

Right beside the ocean with a warm breeze
A little boy was born beneath the palm trees
The air was thick the sun was shining daily
And mom was in the kitchen cooking mehlee
But I don't wanna talk about that anymore
That was back then, that was before
Now I am a new man with a big plan living in a new land...
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am, I am, I am, I am
I am, I am I am, I am, ooh
On an island in the Indian Ocean
A better life possessed all my devotion
When every night I'd hear the bullets ringing
I'd close my eyes and pray for a new beginning
So when the papers arrived at my door
I thanked god, 'cause I was so sure
That I was a new man with a big plan moving to a new land
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am, I am, I am, I am, ooh
But I did not
I am, I am I am, I am, ooh
I can't not be there now
They say my food is funny, my name is funny, I look funny
They say my clothes are funny, I speak funny, I laugh funny
They say I pray funny, I dream funny, I sing funny
My god is funny, but where I'm from it's not so funny...
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am an immigrant, I am
I am, I am, I am, I am
No they don't know me by my name
I am, I am, I am, ooh
I guess to them it's all the same
I am, I am I am, ooh
Can you get it's all the same?
I am, I am I am, ooh
They don't know me by my name
Uuh, ey ey ey ey ahh... ahh... mm...
