where I'm from
Location
Multiple Individuals Allow a Musical Invasion, Miami.
Where keys distort the image of reality each note on the brink of insanity
Where people aren’t people but music,
I my own harmony
New millennium or Jurassic here we all love the classic
Pianos, who believe that white and black belong side by side
Not forgetting my ethnicity of the boom bam slide of the merengue ride
Bachata invading the streets trafficking hip hop on every corner
Colorful skirts spinning to the stomp, stomp beat of Cumbia
Screaming on every block the want to rock but it’s time to roll
Towards a new generation of house music and techno
No longer defined by boots and cowboy hats
And a small part of the map we shuffle to our love of country
Loud drums, saxophone, piano, guitar or acoustic
no matter how you chose it this is the land of the music
Where I’m from we aren’t defined by the color of our skin
But of the rhythms within that you can no longer contain
Makes you jump out of the societal frame and live to your own rhythm
Boom bam slide enjoy the ride, where I’m from
We don’t live to the stereotypes of bump and grind
Every movement has a measured meaning boom bam slide with feeling
And the feelings not deceiving once you’re here you’re never leaving
Where I’m from palm trees weave back and forth to the beat
old men playing dominoes in the street boom bam slide of the pieces
Women preparing a feast boom bam slide of the pots and pans
Fans screaming at the current winning boom bam slide of the people
Children playing baseball with sticks in the streets boom bam slide of kids
Together we all create our own symphony of intertwined melodies
Where I’m from there’s no such things as immigrants we’re all citizens of the music
