Mi Nombre

Day after day, I fear my soul decays

Being crushed by the weight of forced responsibility

Time and time again, I'm denied the opportunity to provide

All I ever wanted was the chance for a better life

Now I know: Anywhere I go. Every place I turn

I'm faced with blind hypocrisy

And I see: Everywhere I've been. Every place I turn

There's just no opportunity for me

Down, falling down on a one way trip that's nowhere bound

Trying to go to a destination that I can't get to

Tired of living just to make ends meet

And I'm tired of living right next to defeat

This life will be the death of me

Now I know: Anywhere I go. Every place I turn

I'm faced with blind hypocrisy

And I see: Everywhere I've been. Every place I turn

There's just no opportunity for me (for me)

They laugh right in my face

No justice. What a fucking disgrace

I know I'll never be treated the same

Based on my name. Ugh!

Tired of living just to make ends meet. Yeah! Yeah!

Tired of living right next to defeat.

Disgust in how we treat, distrust in what I say
