I Can Only Write My Name

 

I Can Only Write My Name


Kids would laugh at my mom's accent
And the food that she made
Say that stranger
Is my brother
Cause we all look the same
Thought I'd be cool if I could laugh too
Even at my own expense
I'd be just like all of those guys
"All-American"

Spent my life wishing
My eyes were shaped
A little differently
And always answered back
In English when my family spoke
To me

Now I'm ashamed
I can only write my name
I can only write my name
I can only write my name

I'm ashamed
And I'm the only one to blame
That I can only write my name
I can only write my name

I lost it all when I was young
So no one would ask me where I'm from
And now, I don't speak the language
Wouldn't even know how to say
That I'm ashamed

Wanna sit down with my grandpa
I know nothing about smile and nod
Instead of talking
Only way we know how
So forgive me, all the years I was embarrassed
Must of hurt to see I couldn't care less
I rejected my own culture
Like all Americans

Maybe I just never had a hero
I could look up to
It's hard to see yourself
In Superman when he looks nothing like you

Now I'm ashamed
I can only write my name
I can only write my name
I can only write my name

I'm ashamed
I'm the only one to blame
I can only write my name
I can only write my name

Lost it all
When I was young
So no one asked me
Where I'm from
And now, I don't speak
The language
Wouldn't even know
How to say

That I'm ashamed
I can only write my name
I can only write my name
I can only say

That I understand
And really I can't
Stop running from who I am
And write my own name

Fatto
