I'm Pinoy

I'm not gonna start this song with you don't know what it like It's selfish; I didn't choose where I was born in life I wished some of you know what you really sound like Even if it wasn't intentional, the shit already happened I'm annoyed because its ignorant and it keeps happening My last name is of Hispanic descent I'm Filipino, my first name, Anglo Saxon My parents named me after a couple of musicians E-R-R-O-L, I-A-N It's stupid when I have to repeat myself again You only see a fraction of my pride Your eyes implied it's all lies and disguised And Just because I can't speak it; you all assume why Sad I'm gonna have to fucking meet people like you until I die You show hate where I'm from Regardless of my pride I was given another life Grew up a different way Our blood and motherland the same That shit is never gonna change You being dumb stupid and fucking ignorant Repeating cliché phrases Our ethnicity points to the same pages I can't speak it; I hear you critique it Mind your business leave it Regardless of what you believe bitch I'm married to a pinay, who don't care the way I was raised She doesn't reject that I adopted American ways But every other Filipino look at me like I'm crazy Consider me like I'm a freaking fucking fugazy Just because I was born on Hawaii, and I'm Ilocano That's a Filipino dialect other than Tagalog Stupid ignorants considered me blood of a Hawaiian Yes, I'm local because I was raised on the pacific island I'm not gonna explain it; I'm tired of trying; I hide it with smiling My parents too are children of the sun; I still get judged I feel like I turned out to be a decent son I still know where is my motherland You show hate where I'm from Regardless of my pride I was given another life Grew up a different way Our blood and motherland the same That shit is never gonna change You being dumb stupid and fucking ignorant Repeating cliché phrases Our ethnicity points to the same pages I can't speak it; I hear you critique it Mind your business leave it Regardless of what you believe bitch I can't speak the native tongue Even if you don't know it, you show hate where I'm from I still carry Filipino pride in my heart, expected nothing but love But some of your minds so corrupted with drama Turn gossip into a wildfire; so many vultures in our culture Some of the shit you say is so insulting I never realized how true this statement is until I met you I know now home is where the hater lives I do give a fuck that you think we're different, it's inconsiderate I hear you whispering, it might be minor to you, but to people like me its blistering Only god is keeping my answers in conversations with you from being belligerent I can't believe I get stereotyped and verbally prejudiced by my own people If you don't think we're equal, I give it to you But I'll hold my thoughts on you being unethical Because I'm professional and in all fairness Maybe I never tried hard enough to be on your level But at least I still have that situational awareness Maybe you're just jealous, so you keep your conversation infectious That you felt the need to highlight us on your own merit I'll be honest, I find all of this shit so fucking hysterical You show hate where I'm from Regardless of my pride I was given another life Grew up a different way Our blood and motherland the same That shit is never gonna change You being dumb stupid and fucking ignorant Repeating cliché phrases Our ethnicity points to the same pages I can't speak it; I hear you critique it Mind your business leave it Regardless of what you believe bitch
