letra de human - hector dominguez

(intro)
there’s been a surge of illegal immigrants
many of them children in recent months
some land owners, they’ve had enough…
we are being invaded
and the quicker the politician realizes
that its an invasion the quicker they’ll close the border…
anzaldua hopes the arrival of the guard
is the first step in that direction…

(verse 1) [hector dominguez]
just hear me out…
i do this for my people
the ones ya’ll call illegal
this country is indebted
you’re a blessing and we need you
i know it seems you need to
see thru evil when we see you
don’t believe in what they feed you
i know you need to eat to
i’m trying to stay on track
often getting lost
feel i’m loosing self steam
blame it on my train of thought
y’all will never know the cost
so i’m taxing everyone who ever wrote us off
(ever wrote us off)
brown boys, brown boys
you’re worth more than you’re work ethic
don’t you know that you’re a prince
i would of said king but what does it mean
when half the population wish we couldn’t get in
when race get brought up
the rest get caught up
but it wasn’t till the 70s when america saw us
california, georgia, mexico and florida
our influence is everywhere
can you please stop ignoring us

(hook) [ac]
sombody tell me what we’re doing
can’t you see that we are human
i’m not an immigrant, i’m not illegal
i just came to tell you bout my people

sombody tell me what we’re doing
can’t you see that we are human
i’m not an immigrant, i’m not illegal
i just came to tell you bout my people

verse 2 [hector dominguez]
i heard freedom had a price
but tell me whats it cost
the civil war 20,000 latino men lives were lost
murdering our children latinas were double crossed
that plus all our land america ripped us off
arizona, nevada, utah and kansas, wyoming
oklahoma and colorado were latin
100 of years when the natives who had it
1000 of years before pilgrims had landed
savages so in the end (indian) im in my feelings
they hate our brown skin but l-st our woman
the heart of man is evil and thats where the root lays
bottom of the food chain except for taco tuesday
anger and p-ssion
do me a favor relax and
this ain’t about different cl-sses
is there sp-ce for us to grow is all that im asking

(hook) [ac]
sombody tell me what we’re doing
can’t you see that we are human
i’m not an immigrant, i’m not illegal
i just came to tell you bout my people

sombody tell me what we’re doing
can’t you see that we are human
i’m not an immigrant, i’m not illegal
i just came to tell you bout my people

(outro)
so i remember watching the presidential campaigns with son
and him seeing people that look like him
dress like him, talk like him
being demonized.. being called murderers
and then my son asked me…
“why does the president hate me so much”
at the time my son was 6
as a father, what would you tell your son?
