Heidi Rojas - La Situación Lyrics




Etta la situation
Etta etta la situacion
Buscando where I belong
Been buscando where I be
Etta la situation
Etta etta la situacion
Buscando where I belong
Been buscando where I be

The gringos call me exotic
My gente call me whitina
Don't know where I belong
It's been like this since I was a niña
Too brown or I'm too light
Too colorful or too uptight
I can never get it right

Quiero ser yo!
Can that be enough sometime?

I am the daughter of Rosa
I am the granddaughter of Gloria
My abuelito and mis abuelitas
Are watching over me
I can feel them watching over me

But oh sometimes I feel so solita alone in a room full of gente
You say oh I know what you're going through but you don't cuz you're not in my mente

Etta la situation
Etta etta la situacion
Buscando where I belong
Been buscando where I be
Etta la situation
Etta etta la situacion
Buscando where I belong
Been buscando where I

My 4th grade teacher was racist
But I was too young to name it
She was so nice to the white kids
And all the blonde girls were her favorite
Grew up and I thought it was me
So hurt and a little naive
Guess I didn't wanna believe
Just being me wouldn't be well received?

I am the daughter of Rosa
I am the granddaughter of Julia
My abuelito and mis abuelitas
Are watching over me
I can feel them watching over me

But oh sometimes I feel so solita alone in a room full of gente
You say oh I know what you're going through but you don't cuz you're not in my mente

Some people think it's OK to call all brown people Mexican
Take geography again
It's not cute being ignorant
I'm from Guatemala, Cuba
Nicaragua, España,
Africa, Italia
There's Latinos and Hispanos
Mestizos, mulatos
Somos de todos lados
I'm orgullosa of my cultura
Música loud y la gente pura
Colorful cities, delicious food and beautiful people
I come from immigrants and hard workers Sacrificios, tide turners
I want to change the world with my beautiful people


But oh sometimes I feel so solita alone in a room full of gente
You say oh I know what you're going through but you don't cuz you're not in my mente

Etta la situation
Etta etta la situacion
Buscando where I belong
Been buscando where I be
