Drei Ros x RobYoung & Sharlene – Excuse My Accent lyrics Cause where I’m from is a long way
Cross the water, nothing easy
Made up my mind way back when
But we on now and I ain’t look back since
Excuse my accent (x4)
Marbel floors in the Taj Mahal
Cinta Costera in Panama
Brooklyn to Bucharest, one world one life one love
Come one come all come on
Wish I can hand this off
Start a chain reaction Diana Ross
You Gonna have to open these doors
You can never hold the walls we break that off
You ever wonder what it’s like to put yourself in the shoes of a child
Nowhere to call home, cause it’s burnt to the ground
Pray to the clouds only to find locks on the doors
(OH LORD OH LORD)
Freedom call in the distance went from no pot to piss in
Now we all up in that kitchen
Excuse the accent, now deal with it
Cause where I’m from is a long way
Cross the water, nothing easy
Made up my mind way back when
But we on now and I ain’t look back since
Excuse my accent (x4)
Damn this so chaotic
I say damn this so chaotic
Living in the land of the free
But I’m scared that the headlights right behind me don’t get patriotic
Don’t get patriotic
I say
Don’t get patriotic
I heard them say that we come from the same place
Not matter where your from we leave the same way
Can’t put a UHaul on the back of a casket
Spent it all on some Louis Vuitton baggage
When across the axis
Little girl asking
For access
To a warm mattress
Can’t sanction a sanctuary
Can’t sanction a sanctuary
No way no how
We Sanctified and all praises say can’t hold us down
Think about it now
We just want some clear water
Basics, food and education
They say who you pray to, turn around now
You don’t speak my language
Is hard to find love when is opinionated
Is hard to find love but you still with it
You gonna have to excuse my pronunciation now deal with it
They trying to hold us and bring us down
They took the time but is our time now
No more waiting, no more standing outside
No more being excused put the accents aside
Defendemos lo que somos
Con la vida y la muerte
Juntos somos más fuertes
Tenemos sangre latina
Tienen que darse tres golpes
en el pecho
Cuando hay niños pagando
por algo que no han hecho
Cause where I’m from is a long way
Cross the water, nothing easy
Made up my mind way back when
But we on now and I ain’t look back since
Excuse my accent (x4)
