We came across the ocean, chasing the dream,
Building a new life, or so it seemed.
Brick by brick, we rise, never fall,
This is our story, we give it our all.
Left my home, packed my bags, said goodbye,
Tears in my eyes, but my spirit stayed high.
New land, new fight, gotta find my way,
Hustle every night, grind every day.
Language is heavy, but my voice is strong,
My roots run deep, that’s where I belong.
They see a stranger, but they don’t know,
My fire inside will only grow.
We came across the ocean, chasing the dream,
Building a new life, or so it seemed.
Brick by brick, we rise, never fall,
This is our story, we give it our all.
Miss my city, miss my streets, miss my sky,
But I’m making this work, I won’t let it slide.
Working two jobs, got no time to sleep,
Dreams don’t come cheap, the climb is steep.
For every no, I’ll find a yes,
Every struggle is my progress.
Step by step, I’m carving my lane,
Turning all my losses into gain.
We came across the ocean, chasing the dream,
Building a new life, or so it seemed.
Brick by brick, we rise, never fall,
This is our story, we give it our all.
Dreams don’t break, they bend and grow,
Through the highs and the lows, we glow.
This is my life, my grind, my fight,
An immigrant’s story shining bright.
