Immigrants (We Get The Job Done) (feat. Snow Tha Product, Riz MC & Residente)

You know, and it gets into this whole issue of border security

You know, who's gonna say that the borders are secure?

We've got the house and the senate debating this issue

And it's, it's really astonishing that in a country founded by immigrants

"Immigrant" has somehow become a bad word

So the debate rages on and we continue

And just like that it's over, we tend to our wounded, we count our dead

Black and white soldiers wonder alike if this really means freedom

Not yet

I got one job, two job, three when I need them

I got five roommates in this one studio, but I never really see them

And we all came america trying to get a lap dance from lady freedom

But now lady liberty is acting like hilary banks with a pre-nup

Man, I was brave, sailing on graves

Don't think I didn't notice those tombstones disguised as waves

I'm no dummy, here is something funny

you can be an immigrant without risking your lives

Or crossing these borders with thrifty supplies

All you got to do is see the world with new eyes

Immigrants, we get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

We get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Immigrants, we get the job done

It's a hard line when you're an import

Baby boy, it's hard times

When you ain't sent for

Racists feed the belly of the beast

With they pitchforks, rich chores

Done by the people that get ignored

Ya se armó

Ya se despertaron

It's a whole awakening

La alarma ya sonó hace rato

Los que quieren buscan

Pero nos apodan como vagos

We are the same ones

Hustling on every level

Ten los datos

Walk a mile in our shoes

Abróchense los zapatos

I been scoping ya dudes, ya'll ain't been working like I do

I'll outwork you, it hurts you

You claim I'm stealing jobs though

Peter piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid pablo

But there ain't a paper trail when you living in the shadows

We're america's ghost writers, the credit's only borrowed

It's a matter of time before the checks all come

But

Immigrants, we get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

We get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Immigrants, we get the job

Not yet

The credit is only borrowed

It's america's ghost writers, the credit's only borrowed

It's america's ghost writers

America's ghost writers

America's ghost writers, the credit's only borrow-borrowed

It's america's ghost writers, a credit is only borrowed

It's america's ghost writers, a credit is only borrowed

It's america's ghost writers, a credit is only borrowed

It's

Immigrants, we get the job done

Ay yo aye, immigrants we don't like that

Na they don't play british empire strikes back

They beating us like 808's and high hats

At our own game of invasion, but this ain't iraq

Who these fugees what did they do for me

But contribute new dreams

Taxes and tools, swagger and food to eat

Cool, they flee war zones, but the problem ain't ours

Even if our bombs landed on them like the mayflower

Buckingham palace or capitol hill

Blood of my ancestors had that all built

It's the ink you print on your dollar bill, oil you spill

Thin red lines on the flag you hoist when you kill

But still we just say "look how far I come"

Hindustan, pakistan, to london

To a galaxy far from their ignorance

'Cause

Immigrants, we get the job done

Por tierra o por agua

Identidad falsa

Brincamos muros o flotamos en balsas

La peleamos como sandino en nicaragua

Somos como las plantas que crecen sin agua

Sin pasaporte americano

Porque la mitad de gringolandia es terreno mexicano

Hay que ser bien hijo de puta

Nosotros les sembramos el árbol y ellos se comen la frutas

Somos los que cruzaron

Aquí vinimos a buscar el oro que nos robaron

Tenemos mas trucos que la policía secreta

Metimos la casa completa en una maleta

Con un pico, una pala

Y un rastrillo

Te construimos un castillo

Como es que dice el coro cabrón?

Immigrants, we get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

We get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Immigrants, we get the job done

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Look how far I come

Immigrants, we get the job done
