There is a nation My people came from It is supposed to be my home Open my mouth and I am a stranger Everyone hears it in my tone As I fumble through the language Father wrote my mother poems And I wonder Is there a place where I belong A place where I belong There is a nation I'm born and raised in It is supposed to be my home I am a stranger Here in my own land Everyone hears it in my tone Speaking Spanglish With an echo Of an island I don't know All my features Tell my neighbors I’m too other to belong Where is the water Where is the sand Where is the sky and Where is the land Where is the nation Where is the flag That treats me as their own Where is the kindness Where is the hand Where is the neighbor Where is the friend Where is the welcome Where is the love That I can call my home There is a nation I'm born and raised in It is supposed to be my home My people been here For generations Still I'm unsure if we'll ever belong Brown versus board of assimilation Hollow the victory Tokenization Still in the ghettos Still segregation Natives still suffering on reservations I am American I am as true as it knows Red white and singing the blues Blacks and Indigenous Hated by the very nation They built with our ancestors bones I am a river polluted With greed and with theft I am a protest with flesh I am the thirsty dark children Still guzzling lead Still no one can answer me this Where is the water Where is the sand Where is the sky and Where is the land Where is the nation Where is the flag That treats me as their own Where is the kindness Where is the hand Where is the neighbor Where is the friend Where is the welcome Where is the love I am the kindness I am the hand I am the neighbor I am the friend I am the welcome I am the love That you can call your home
