Como Mi Mama

Like My Mom

Como Mi Mama

If you don't understand what I meanSi no compreendes que quiero decir
Just listen to meSolo me escuches
I know where I want to goYo sé donde quiero llegar
Don't be dazzledNo te deslumbres
The girls with such great strengthLas chicas de fuerza tán grande
Following the pathSiguiendo al rumbo
Stars are not so far awayEstrellas no más tán distantes
Changing the worldCambiando al mundo

Today I rememberHoy me recuerdo
I'm a Black Latin AmericanSoy negra latinoamericana
I'm not afraidNo tengo miedo
I'm a witch like my momYo soy bruja como es mi mama

And I don't care what happensY no me importa lo que pasa
They won't shut me upNo me ván callar
I don't want the institutions that trap meNo quiero a las intituciones que me atrapán
And I don't care what happensY no me importa lo que pasa
They won't shut me upNo me ván callar
I don't want the institutions that trap meNo quiero a las intituciones que me atrapán

Since I discovered myselfDesde que me descobri
I saw that there was no spaceVi que não tinha espaço
To be who I am, go where I goPra ser quem sou, ir onde vou
And do what I doE fazer o que eu faço
Everything that was left overTudo o que me sobrava
Was always so scarceTava sempre tão escasso
But I pick up the paceMás eu aperto o passo
Without losing the beatSem sair do compasso

You won't see me walkingNo me verás caminando
Because today I know I have my wings to flyPorque hoy ya lo sé que tengo mis asas a volar
And you won't see me silentY no me verás callada
Because I have my reasons that lead me to singPorque tendo mis razones que me llevan a cantar

For my sistersPor mis hermanas
For my sistersPor mis hermanas

Today I rememberHoy me recuerdo
I'm a Black Latin AmericanSoy negra latinoamericana
I'm not afraidNo tengo miedo
I'm a witch like my momYo soy bruja como es mi mama

And I don't care what happensY no me importa lo que pasa
They won't shut me upNo me ván callar
I don't want the institutions that trap meNo quiero a las intituciones que me atrapán
And I don't care what happensY no me importa lo que pasa
They won't shut me upNo me ván callar
I don't want the institutions that trap meNo quiero a las intituciones que me atrapán
