Listen to the music: Maestro Sersea – The Immigrant Ballads, Vol. 1
Sing along with the lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I came here searching for a brighter light
Kept my head up to the American sky
Worked my fingers down to bones
Finding places where I can call mine
Every dream takes some time to grow
Gonna write my story line by line
[Chorus]
Oh, I didn’t break American laws
Just tried to find my way and cause
This land’s a beacon, oh so bright
Grateful for each day and night
[Verse 2]
With a suitcase full of hope and dreams
Crossed those miles, chased the golden beams
Kept my heart steady and true
Seeing the red, white, and blue
In the land where freedom reigns
Every day, I’m planting seeds
[Chorus]
Oh, I didn’t break American laws
Just tried to find my way and cause
This land’s a beacon, oh so bright
Grateful for each day and night
[Bridge]
Carry the love that brought me here
Through the struggles and the tears
No regrets, just dreams in sight
In this great, harmonious night
[Chorus]
Oh, I didn’t break American laws
Just tried to find my way and cause
This land’s a beacon, oh so bright
Grateful for each day and night
