[00:13.81]So much trouble in the home
[00:15.89]Of the brave and the land of the free
[00:24.64]Am I an immigrant or am
[00:26.27]I a new slave made for all brutality
[00:31.35]I don't think so
[00:35.22]Is it that man has lost his reason
[00:40.92]You can't even blame the heat
[00:45.56]They're moving like jackals
[00:46.78]In the hunting season
[00:48.20]In the hunting season
[00:51.28]And the refugee's soul is the meat
[00:54.79]Oh yeah yeah

[02:00.31]Take me away now with your sweet soul calypso
[02:04.02]A cumbia and a reggae
[02:10.58]Like a punta rock and a salsa samba
[02:14.47]A high life bhangra merengue
[02:17.20]I think remebe tu
[02:18.76]In other words
[02:20.12]Yeah
[02:22.05]This is a different kind of apple now New York City
[02:27.09]Or like an orange I love LA
[02:32.33]What a delight so bright and juicy
[02:36.11]Yeah
[02:37.81]But a little spicy to the taste
[02:41.10]USA
[02:43.13]The immigrants are here to stay to help build America
[02:53.57]The immigrants ain't going nowhere they're here for America

[03:52.41]Home of the brave land of the free
[03:55.30]You and me

[03:57.36]From the New York island from sea to shining sea
