Lyrics
Intro: Speaking In Russian
Verse 1:
7 Years old, walking through the darkness
Halway full of heroine, stairway packed with crackheads
Its pitch black gotta walk 15 flights of this,
Doped out homeless, Man im getting tired of this,
Rushing down thoes steps I wish the path was clear
Reachin blindly for my mothers hand but she wasnt there
I dont blame her, I was safer walking by myself,
Countries so poor people praying, begging for some wealth,
Now my eyes getting used to the darkness,
I can see the addicts now shooting up almost always,
I dont see any lihgt comming in to save me
Might as well get used to this, I hear my mother praying,
Times is getting harder, situations getting worse,
Kids is getting kidnapped, school was canceled cuz of this,
A mans plead for went ignored,
Till shots went off, Murder in the air lured,
Body found the following morning,
I dont know who he was but I still morned him,
My house full of investigators,
Where the murder happen? On the dreaded staircase
Chorus:
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
Just another immigrant struggle
Verse 2:
Im so lucky to leave, and Im saying this honestly,
We hit a jackpot with this green card lottery,
1 Family out of millions get to leave the pits of hell
Had to keep it secret cause jelousy kills,
When I was 9, I came 2 this country,
An immigrant man we were hungry for that money,
Starting from 0, imagine that,
Parents working 5 to 9 yeah it was bad,
Fuck social services and their child neglegence,
No need for that, we're Ukrainian
I didnt know english thoes tears felt like razors,
Accent was heavy thats what made the kids hate us,
I was abnormal, an immigrant, labeled,
Had to hit the strip to put food on the table,
You will never understand an outcasts pain,
Every ignorent american left my soul stained.
Chorus:
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
Just another immigrant struggle
Verse 3:
Who gave yall the right to judge me?
When your grandparents were just like me.
Its crazy, they cant comprehend this,
Dont you know America was built on immigrants,
Columbus didnt discover shit,
There was natives on this land Before his voyage,
So why do we keep on insulting people?
teach em the language, let them be equal,
At the end of the day we're all just humans,
Everyday I had to tell myself that I can do this,
Learn the language, go to school,
Same struggle people 2 this day have to go through,
What kind of country is this, its a mess,
When half the citizens cant pass the citizen test
In this song, I didnt mean to offend,
But I meant every word that I've said.
Chorus:
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
This is just another, Immigrants struggle
Just another immigrant struggle
