How you doing?
It’s been un minuto
I hope you’re in the mood to sing along
I feel like we had so much in common
But you say that was true then, now it’s wrong
We were born where money was just paper
Our parents cried and told us we were great
Soon found out that people in skyscrapers
Smiled while making us the prey and bait
You texted me one day complaining about your new leader
And I said he looks pretty dumb but I think mine is worse
A few years ago with my ticket in a hand and a suitcase
They said they’re not gonna believe if they could hear your verse
Go norte
Go norte
We’re hanging by threads
We’re praying in bed
Take the long way
Go norte
Go norte
We’re dreaming of what you’ve achieved
So don’t dare touch that doorway
Well I know brother
I should not be fussing
But living in this land is pretty weird
All my friends owe millions and make minimum
Then numb themselves to disappear their fears
And now the problem’s not white collar crime
But families that eat from overtime
They're counting dimes and the climb is never ending
Now I’m trying to hold my breath above the grime
Cause behind all the photos I’m posting ‘bout living the life here
The fear of drowning is real and I’m learning to swim
So when you say I ‘got it made’ cause I live in El Norte
Just ask me how having a headache could put in me in debt
Go norte
Go norte
We’re hanging by threads
And we’re praying in bed
Take the long way
Go norte
Go norte
We’re dreaming of what you’ve achieved
So don’t dare touch that doorway
Well I know there’s context that lacks to the things that I’m saying
And I know that there’s better voices to shout what I did
But the dream is called that cause it only works inside your head
Cause it looks like the people upstairs want us dead
I’ve toured where the water is flowing with led
I’ve sat with the people who’re begging for bread
I can love a place and be filled with the dread
Of knowing that none of these problems are bred
It happens when only the headlines get read
The people get bled and the pled to get fed
I fled my own home, I’m now left alone and I feel spread thin
Go norte
Go norte
We’re hanging by threads
And we’re praying in bed
Take the long way
Go norte
Go norte
We’re dreaming of what you’ve achieved
So don’t dare touch that
Take that doorway
