Alien (Revisited)
I'm trying to find my way home
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me alien
USA's where I'm from, born in Brazil, 16 years since the last time I felt
Welcomed at home, I've been fighting for my rights here for way too long for way too long
Yuh, Still working while uncertainty is lurking
Is my neighbor gonna help me, is my neighbor gonna hurt me?
It irks me
I'm on my grind, good job nice car
But if I miss a stop sign, they rip my family apart
They said the land of the free was open
That's what my family was hoping
But that whole story was a sick illusion
I am inundated with mental pollution
And micro aggressions
And I, developed an obsession
With figuring out the answers to my existential questions
And I know hope never dies
If my chance is one in a million, I'm trying a million times
I'm trying to find my way home
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me alien
In this very moment, see I'm drunk as f
I get scared about my future I call my lawyer up
She said, if you try and leave and come back you gone get stuck
and if the other side wins, you better pack your stuff
See I don't wanna leave, Yo I wanna stay
But I refuse to act like I'm supposed to be ashamed
Of the fact that I migrated to a new place
But the word immigration always alienates
We're working hard without ever stopping
Jobs on the side with no day off or nothing
So I might not be American by birth
But I earned this s, American by work!
I'm trying to find my way home
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me an alien
This is my house and I love it
You can try to kick me out I'mma stop it
Build the damn wall I'mma hop it
If you build the damn wall I'm gonna hop it
This is my home and I love it
You can try to kick me out I'mma stop it
Build the damn wall I'mma hop it
If you build the damn wall I'm gonna come back and hop it
I'm trying to find my way home
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me an alien
I'm trying to find my way home
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me an alien
Cuz I've been lost for too long
And I don't know if I belong anywhere, anywhere
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Call me alien
