Your race or religion, just be proud of that

You know, this is the story of an immigrant

Travel over land and sea to a foreign country

Left his friends and his family

And everything just to get an opportunity

Working hard and saving his money

Hoping one day he gonna be somebody

Nobody knows how much things that he went through

And how much hell that he passed through

He just wants to make a better life for his family

But the government wants to kick him out the country

This is the story of an immigrant

Here me now, continuation of the immigrant story

Immigrant story

He tried and he tried and applied and applied

He never broke no law, he abided

He followed all the rules and regulations and stipulations of the immigration

Hired a lawyer who said he could help him and then after that he could sponsor his family

Worked three jobs and saved up the money

So he could be able to pay him the fee

After ten years of waiting and sacrifice, he got denied and detained by ICE

Celia Cruz was an immigrant (immigrant)

Bob Marley was an immigrant (oh)

They locked him up and threw away the key until they got the time to deport him

Treat him like he was a criminal although he never committed a crime in the country

Put him in a plane and sent him back, he didn't have nothing, he didn't get to pack

Nothing that he had, all his prized possessions, his car and his house, they sold it in auctions

Now he's back in his home country and he feels like he let down his family

Felt so sad and hopeless sad and hopeless he ended up committing suicide!
