They say I say
They say im nick
They say my rimes are sick
They say im brown
I say I know how to make a touch down
So
Don’t judge me by the way I sound
They say im chunky
I say im a chunky monkey
They say im hungry
I say
Stop discriminating
Instead
Im going to use my Mexican immigration
To help build my Mexican human nation
