Jícama (Edit)

I see you but you don’t see me, nah
¡Jícama! ¡Jícama! Guava tree
Daughters and the sons of an ancient seed
¡Jícama! ¡Jícama! Guava tree

Born of the bones from under East LA
Cultura Chicana is alive today!
I want some FREEDOM with my pan dulce!
Been wearing my roots and flying this flag

I see you but you don’t see me, nah
¡Jícama! ¡Jícama! Guava tree
Dichotomous-Guadalupe-Angeleno breed, ya
¡Jícama! ¡Jícama! Guava tree

I see you but you don’t see me, nah
¡Jícama! Jícama! Guava tree
I’ve been trying to tell ya but you just don’t see
Like you I was born in this country

Growing up to view the world from two sides
The Pan-Americana a relentless fight
Bold and beautiful all in spite
Remember this place for the rest of your life

¡Jícama! Jícama!
¡Jícama! Jícama!

I see you but you don’t see me, nah
¡Jícama! Jícama! Guava tree
I’ve been trying to tell ya but you just don’t see
Like you I was born in this country

¡Jícama! Jícama!
¡Jícama! Jícama!

I’ve been trying to tell ya but you just don’t see
Like you I was born in this country
