(Yeah)
(United we stand, divided we fall)
(It ain't just a song)
(It's a way of life)
(Realize)
[Daizer]
They say my skin is my sin, so I'm destined for hell
It's a game I can't win, but yet they claim this is fair
Guilty since my birth, at times I feel I'm cursed
And brown against brown, that ***'s even worse
I'm Latino and proud until they put me in the ground
And right now and forever my pride is holding down
There are plenty to say, and fake it take it for granted
When it comes to showing heart, not to many standing
In and out of jail, that's the life I've been granted
Where the only justice that I know is poetic Janet
Bandits all around, all they want is get at me
Haters getting popped like you do to rid acne
There are plenty listen, but never hear what I'm saying
Claiming brown and proud, when truthfully you're hating
White washed individuals selling out like silly hoes
Calling me a *** for my culture language that I know
Fluently in Spanish digo y ago lo que quiera
Never causing static but I'm down for whatever
United is a dream that at times I seem to have
Being brown as you're family
United we stand
[Chorus]
United we stand, divided we fall
Stand tall brown and proud I'm saying it loud
United we stand, divided we fall
Stand tall brown and proud it's on you, you make the call
(Repeat)

I speak more knowledge than a teacher; hold your attention like a preacher
You're mind is like an atlas, that's why I'm here to teach you
Reach out and touch someone like AT&T
Someone had to put it how it is, that someone is me
Ignorance and jealousy usually fills our heads
Competition to the top, on each other we step
Maintain a rep always claiming, down for the bammer
When Latinos try to rise, you're the first to bring us down
You're born in the states, doesn't mean your *** is better
Let the truth be known, we're all *** hueros
It just so happens your family beat mine to the punch
Crossed the border sooner, a matter of time separates us
Don't cuss, the truth hurts, take it like a man
Understand my plan, if offended I don't give a damn
I'm thinking about this problem cause its real
And dreaming about having peace without having to pack steal
But gang members don't seem to understand
I need no hood to back me up
I stand alone, like a man (ohh)
No need to claim and die for a street I'll never own
Run around like a kid, when I know I'm full grown
You're just doing them a favor when you're killing one another
Think, who would have your back if the *** came down to color
Feel they know some project claimed, one street in this land
We could own the world if united we stand
[Chorus: x2]
(Yeah)
(United we stand)
(Remember that)
