They can keep us on the sideline we gone stick together Diamonds in the soil about to pop from all the pressure Juggling different worlds and you know we won't select one Make something out of nothing, holding hands when we not welcome Believe me it's a gift Golden skin and tint Scared of the slipper like a normal little immigrant kid Gratitude cause we know what our parents risked Our roots got stronger every time we had to shift Brown and proud yeah you know that And we just getting started Blessing the roots that hold us And we just getting started Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud They say our food smells a lil strange Moved countries, but our culture didn't change The way they looked at us would never be the same Oh they couldn't coin us down when they mispronounced our names We built new families with people that we chose Created fashion with your second hand clothes Brown solidarity hits hard like dominoes Pushed us out your cities so we took over the globe Brown and proud yeah you know that And we just getting started Blessing the roots that hold us And we just getting started Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud No pass no we didn't com to bargain Here to stay, no this land was never foreign Built our homes no humans will be forgotten Cause we put all of heart in Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud Brown and proud
