"OFW" lyrics
(feat. Vex Ruffin)
He was born in the Philippines
In the slums but he had a dream
To move away overseas
Where he could help his family
Life here isn't easy, the industry is cheap
If they could they wouldn't pay ya, it's crowded in the streets
And the heat, you can't escape it, they smile in your face
But behind your back they hate you
I was born in L.A.
Normandie to the Valley
Moved to Manila in '93
Me and my family
Ten years old, culture shock, talaga
Talaga
Other kids tried to bully me
Napikon nagalit ako
Nagsuntukan kami sa escuela
The school teacher said tang ina
Walang hiya ka
He got out of the Philippines
He moved away and followed his dreams
And made a way overseas
So he could help his family
He's an OFW
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
In the slums but he had a dream
To move away overseas
Where he could help his family
Life here isn't easy, the industry is cheap
If they could they wouldn't pay ya, it's crowded in the streets
And the heat, you can't escape it, they smile in your face
But behind your back they hate you
I was born in L.A.
Normandie to the Valley
Moved to Manila in '93
Me and my family
Ten years old, culture shock, talaga
Talaga
Other kids tried to bully me
Napikon nagalit ako
Nagsuntukan kami sa escuela
The school teacher said tang ina
Walang hiya ka
He got out of the Philippines
He moved away and followed his dreams
And made a way overseas
So he could help his family
He's an OFW
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
He's an ofw
OFW
