This song is titled “Immigrant,” and it’s in two parts: the first part of the song reflects on the general reasons why some of us find ourselves wanting to leave our countries of origin, the struggles of actually managing to get to our destination countries, and the difficulties we face on a daily basis as immigrants. The second part of the song is more personal—the issues I have faced in over three years of living in Germany, and how people react to me because of my skin colour, both at work and at social gatherings.
