She came here looking for love, land and freedom
What’s a girl to do?
You acting like that water made of aether
But your people drank it, too
Grandmama was a farmer
She turned the earth into fruit, yeah
Tired hands, we are the truth
Sunkissed, we are the roots
That’s my baby, mi mamí, abuela
Got my cousin, mi tías y suegra
Got my baby in the back reading Huelga
White truck pull up, Vicente bumping in the back, yeah, yeah
(Viva México, Cabrones!)
Fuck your freedom and your feelings, too
And I don’t want your watered down versions of truth
Fuck your freedom and your feelings, too
We don’t need your watered down versions of truth
Fuck your freedom and your feelings, too
We don’t need your watered down versions of truth
Wait in line, wait in line, wait in line
At the borderline, borderline, borderline
Wait in line, wait in line, wait in line
At the color line, color line, color line
Wait in line, wait in line, wait in line
At the borderline, borderline, borderline
Wait in line, wait in line, wait in line
Take your time, take your time, yeah
Wait in line, wait in line, wait in line
At the borderline, borderline, borderline
