El Inmigrante

Calibre 50 Calibre 50

The Immigrant

I was only 17
When I crossed the border
I promised my dear mother
To take her out of poverty
The cold nights burned me
I almost drowned in the river
And to those who suffered the same
I dedicate this ballad...

I am one of many Mexicans
Who work day by day
To give a future to my children
And help my family
How I miss my beloved ranch
My friends who I haven't forgotten
And my parents whom I haven't seen
For several years...

They think that because I crossed the line
I am a drug trafficker
Enough of a thousand humiliations
Just for being an 'immigrant'
I am singing for all my people
Don't forget, keep it in mind
That those they didn't want
Today they make them presidents...

(And even though it hurts many
We are the majority
Pure caliber 50 listen)

The work here has been very hard
But I have never backed down
And the things I have achieved
I have earned with effort
And those who went to the other side
And left their past in their country
Who would have thought of that young boy
And look at what he has achieved...

They have promised us so many things
And have given us nothing
Equality, respect, and tolerance
Is what my race asks for
I am singing for all my people
Don't forget, keep it in mind
And those they didn't want
Today they make them presidents.
