Welcome to America

Lyrics
[Intro] Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon from the flight deck We're cruising at 37,000 feet and we just passed over the coast We'll be beginning our descent in about 30 minutes I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome you to America [Verse 1] I was made in America Land of the free, home of the brave And right up under your nose you might see a sex slave being traded And who will do anything for the money Boy, a mama might sell her babies Sell porn, sell pills, anything to pay the bills Anything to bring that paper Gotta scratch that itch, gotta scratch them ticks Ain't rich, but I might be And Imma shoot these flicks, Imma turn these tricks Anything for a slight fee Yeah, made in America Momma told me that I belong here Had to earn our stripes, had to learn our rights Had to fight for a home here But I wouldn't know a thing about that All I know is drugs and rap I probably coulda' been some kinda doctor Instead of holdin' guns and crack I was born in the mainland Great-Grandpa from a strange land He was stripped away and given bricks to lay I guess you could say he a slave hand But I was made in America So I don't know a thing about that All I know is Uncle Sam lookin' for me workin' on his corner So I know I gotta pay tax Gettin' paid in America I was raised in America And this is all I ever known If I'm wrong then you better come save me America [Hook] Ta na na na muchawa muchawa Ta na na na muchawa muchawa Ta na na na muchawa muchawa Ta na na na muchawa muchawa Welcome to America, welcome to America Welcome to America, welcome to America Welcome to America [Verse 2] Man I'd die for America I served my time for America Got shot-shot back went to war Got back and ain't nobody give a jack in America I coulda lost my life Boy, I lost my wife I can't even get right in my homeland Cold sweats, hold tecs, paranoia Lookin' out for a threat in my own land I was trained in America How they get up in them planes in America Flew 'em right into the buildings Takin' out civilians People gettin' killed in America? And I'm still in America Though America ain't feelin' me I went to war for this country Turn around came home and you drillin' me When y'all free here sayin' you don't wanna be here Boy you probably couldn't breathe here If I didn't load a couple magazines here Y'all just complain in America I'm jumpin' outta military planes from America Aye, I was made in America That's why I'm out here savin' America I got a brother in the cemetery now Cause he wanted y'all safe (Safe) And everybody want the freedom but nobody want to hear about face (Bout face) We bled for America To keep y'all fed in America But what's the point of talkin' A lot of y'all don't really even care America [Hook] Ta na na na muchawa muchawa ta na na na Ta na na na muchawa muchawa ta na na na Welcome to America, welcome to America Welcome to America, welcome to America Welcome to America Ta na na na muchawa Ta na na na muchawa Ta na na na muchawa ta na na na na [Verse 3] I wish I lived in America Wanna raise my kids in America Heard everybody rich All I gotta do is run, jump, kick I'm a hit in ya area So please pick me America I know you'll probably never love me Ya never hear about me on the news And ya probably never been to my country I hear ya sellin' education and got clothes that ya throw away Got plenty food in ya nation I could tell cause a lot of y'all are overweight I already work for y'all I'm in the sweatshops makin' these shirts for y'all Naw, I ain't gettin' money Go to bed hungry, but I make some exports for y'all But y'all don't know a thing about that You was made in America I'm tryna to find me a ticket where the sky is the limit Catch a plane to America It should be plain to America Y'all blessed and ya got it made Heard y'all don't pray no more, y'all ain't saved no more Y'all looking for another way Well I hope it ain't true, but I'm packin' my suit Farewell to my motherland Said bye to my loved ones Fate here I come, I'm goin' to another land I done made it to America I'm amazed at America But I couldn't get approval to stay so they sent me away from America
