My hope is that every person feels welcome where they choose to live. I believe in the human right of pursuing our dreams, even in places far away from where we were born. Many more before me have taken this path, and I have followed their steps to migrate to this land I love.
lyrics:
This land is also mine it’s not only yours
I’m proud to say I love it because it is my home
This land is also mine it’s not only yours
I’m proud to say I love it because it is my home
If you were in my shoes I bet you’d understand
People learn to find themselves sometimes so far away Many more like me since the earliest times
Have gone down the same road for a better life
This land is also mine...
It may be that you don’t know somebody just like me
But if you’d only take the time I know that you would see I’m here to make some good with the very best I have
Work everyday to see my dreams come true before my eyes
This land is also mine...
It’s true that we don’t choose wherever we are born
But everyone has got the right to find a nest to grow
You are right to say that I have somewhere else to call my home
I love it so and won’t forget my dear old Mexico
This land is also mine...
Now it is my home
