Immigrant Lyrics by MZM

Downpour

2016

[Intro]
This goes out to resident aliens with that initiation shot on the arm
To those who struggle to get noticed as equal but won't get nowhere, this is for y'all
To those who won't succeed cause of an accent, you know what I'm sayin'
Yeah, and to those who define the double standard of equal opportunity, this is for y'all

[Verse 1]
I am your average Joe, through all the hype
Strong with might
Capable to brawl and fight
Educated brain through all despite
But treated unsuccessful cause I ain't tall and white
Yes I talk to streets, spit truth y'all relate to
If you can't relate to this, then somethin' is wrong
Betcha' grew up right, stackin cash in bundles
White picket fence, but don't know struggle
Your daddy's a lawyer, your mama's a doctor
Nice house on the hills, grew up somethin' proper
Nah, I ain't hatin', I just think its fucked up
You act like times is rough, cause your cable got cut
What the fuck y'all know about sittin' in the dark
Candles lit, no electric, no chips
No food in the fridge, pops struggled to live
A immigrant who broke his back and got treated like shit

[Verse 2]
From a third world country to here
You think its all fair
Roads paved with gold, arrive, it ain't all there
But instead, you become a victim to the system
Get dicked on 80% of the pay you should be getting
Forced to work more
Get thought of as a toy type
Straight bustin' your ass with no time to enjoy life
And because the stress, you lose the hair on your head
Thinkin your better off dead, when you lay in your bed
And outside, you get stared at all bogus
Because your skin tone is when they call hopeless
When you speak, they start laughin'
Racists start bashing
Tryna beat your ass in
Because of your accent
They work it like voodoo, you think you a citizen?
Try runnin' for president, they won't choose you
We're made to feel stupid, we're animals who'll never rise
Think about it, and we came here for better lives

[Verse 3]
The son of a immigrant y'all, shit was hard
Working more than one job, and cannot afford
Necessities you need to survive in this wrath
Not dirt broke, but not near lower middle class
A different task, led to a different path
But then the downfall came from heart attacks
Surgery, bypass, lower back, one artery
He's a part of me, now he's underneath
So pops, rest in peace, watch me from above
And give me focus to grind all good
Strength of a soldier, my kids'll have it too
Ain't nathan we can't do, we stuck in the lion's den
The big man watchin' us, don't think he ain't
Fuck around, get your body turned to paint
They promise opportunity huh, but understand
If they balls itch, they'll boot us from the land
They even got camps for us so called citizens
We still one in the same to them
Cheap labor immigrants
Yeah, it's all shitty, they show no pity
To those who wear my shoes, c'mon, walk with me
