Lyrics
Verse 1:
Crossing the border that crossed us,
Baja to Alta California, living robust,
From Tijuana, Tecate, to Mexicali streets,
Arizona, Texas, where the heat meets the beat.
Getting here by land, by flight, underground,
Hidden and discrete like the Underground Railroad bound,
Once the minority, now we rise,
Making change for the next generations' eyes.
Chorus:
We rock and we roll all of the U.S.
Worldwide we go, with pride we confess,
Just always remember me as el mexicano,
From Tijuana to San Diego, we ride or die, mano.
Multilingual, nothing can stop me,
Getting what's mine, crossing borders so free.
Verse 2:
From the desert sands to the city lights,
Struggles and triumphs in our sights,
We were once few, now we’re the wave,
Building futures, paving the way.
Tales of survival, dreams in our hearts,
From the underground to the sky, playing our parts,
El mexicano, strong and bold,
Stories of our journey, forever told.
Bridge:
Minority to majority, we change the game,
Next generations, remember our name,
From Tijuana to San Diego, we stand tall,
Multilingual warriors, breaking every wall.
Crossing borders, no limits in sight,
Getting what's ours, day and night,
El mexicano, in every beat and rhyme,
Living our truth, in every lifetime.
Chorus:
We rock and we roll all of the U.S.
Worldwide we go, with pride we confess,
Just always remember me as el mexicano,
From Tijuana to San Diego, we ride or die, mano.
Multilingual, nothing can stop me,
Getting what's mine, crossing borders so free.
Outro:
El mexicano, in every breath we take,
Living our dreams, with no mistake,
From Baja to Alta, our legacy thrives,
In every corner, our spirit survives.
We rock and we roll, from coast to coast,
Riding high, never giving up the ghost,
Remember us, in every story and song,
El mexicano, forever strong.
