Ozomatli Lyrics

"Mi Gente (English Translation)" lyrics



I suffer, I feel, I laugh, I cry, I'm silent, I yell
With all my people
I suffer, I feel, I laugh, I cry, I'm silent, I yell
Because they don't understand me

If I; work from dawn to dawn
If being honest is my religion
I don't need anybody to tell me
What I can or cannot do
If I came to this land from far away
It's because I had heard the promise
That hear I would find the way
To live a better life

I want you to understand that I sweat like everyone else
that I love my land
that it hurts me the same that it hurts you
I want you to know that I am from here just like everyone else
that I also feel the pain
of injustices and the poverty of my people

I suffer for you, to not continue like this
I'm happy to feel that you understand me
I laugh seeing my people laugh too
I scream out knowing you feel this way too

For my people, I will scream today
It's that I scream today
For my people I will sing today
It's that I sing for my people

I scream knowing that you feel the same
I sing of my people, I sing for my people

That they won't suffer anymore like that

This is my land, for which I sing today
