This is for my people,

who are dark skinned and misjudged, 

but who fight through it.

 

This is for my people who are referred 

as "illegals" and "wetbacks",

those who are alwys seemed to be sent back,

withouht causing any harm.

 

This is for my people who come to 

this land for oppurtunities,

for those who set goals to accomplish.

And I say to you my people; we will be succesful.

 

The color of our skin or our history,

does not show who we are.

It's inside what matters.
