Where I'm From

I am from hard-working people
From climbing mountains
To cutting cactus

I am from a single mother and father
From long working hours
To coming home tired

I am from a full of irritating cousins, aunts, uncles, and siblings
Who never leave me alone
Never let me relax

I am from rocky streets
From street that become hills
From hills that become rivers

I am from a farm full of life
From cows to chickens to donkeys
To feeding each one

From hiding in the back of a truck
To crossing the border
To giving our family a better life

I am part of a loving family
