about

Mwen se Ayisen-American.

lyrics

Kote La kay mwen
Nan tout koze
Nan ki lang mama'm pale
Kote ki nom
Nan gwo listwa
Pep la pase banm mwen
Kote Ayiti a
Li nan memwa yo
Ke merite depi'm tou li petit
Isit la se kay mwen
Mwen se Miami
Kote yo dim yo ka vin yon moun

Me tan zan tan
Yo tout ap chanje
Epi se yon ti morso tou pitit
Nap ekri ak san lame
Paske kone listwa pakab pab
Pa janm rekonte

Pa janm rekonte

Where is my home?
In the stories
In the language that my mother speaks
Where is my home?
In the history
That my people passed over to me
Where is Ayiti
In a memory
That I carry from when I was young
Here is my home
In Miami
Where they said I can be someone

But the times
They are changing
And there is little that we truly own
We are writing in sand
Knowing our stories may never be told

So we get up and GO.
