7 Ways Of Looking At A Mexican

Mexicans stand up for what they believe in
and not letting anything,
nor anyone get in there way

There skin color in brown
from my ancestors working hard in the hot sun,
to save enough money
to move to a better place

Mexicans pay someone
that they don't know to cross them,
across the boarder
in the trunk of a car

Mexicans get up early
every day, ready to work,
to support there family

Mexicans warm, hand made tortillas
with steaming beans,
right out of the pot

Mexicans play the mananitas,
for you on your birthday

Mexicans aren't always
in a gangs,
nor having a poor education
