It Don't Hinder Me Lyrics

Enough with the Cadillacs and the Hampton Estates
And enough from the people that tell ya you need that to be something
I want the cooking that my grandmother made
I want the bed that I was yelled at to make
I want sweat dripping off my face
Dripping off my face
My face

Mango peeling in the kitchen at night
Dogs on the street corner start having a fight
“If you stop eating tortillas maybe you'd lose weight!” “Ave María Purísima” 'cause I went on a date

My hometown has a chain-link fence
A backyard party playing Suavemente
My cousins and I used to spend our days jaywalking to the corner store

Some say my hometown, it hinders me
They say it hinders me and that hurts me

But what they say now, it don't hinder me
It don't hurt!

What they say now it don't hinder me
It don't hurt me!
