Where I’m from we speak from the heart
We show goodness without judging
Yes, where I’m from when you extend your hand
It's to give what’s inside
Where I’m from there are a thousand and one nights
Our eyes exude gold and fire
There are tables full of fruit
Lips have the accent of my folks
Where I’m from, some roll their "r"s,
Others speak little or are loud
Whether they come from the snow or the desert
They’ve all once travelled North
We tell each other ancient tales
Passed on through memory
We know where our roots grow
We are not ashamed of our history
I’m from everywhere
Where I’m from, people sow, sow
Make seeds come to life and bloom
Where I’m from, people love each other,
love each other
Differences are a beautiful thing since I'm alive
In my blood there is war, loss and departures
But above all, there is love, love
In my blood there’s a mix of people and mist
But only love can tell my story well
Oh oh oh
Where I’m from, so many destinies deserve to be heard
Even if it's worth nothing to you
How many of us have experienced
Being forced on those boats
To lands of unknown languages
To a life that had to be relearned
To forget what we had known where I’m from
There are those trains that were headed
straight towards death
Where I’m from, there are true ties
In hundreds of thousands of ports
Where I’m from there is also a gipsy who sang by the fireplace at night
I bear her name and I hold up her flame
Standing there, before your eyes
I’m from everywhere
Where I’m from, people sow, sow
Make seeds come to life and bloom
Where I’m from, people love each other,
love each other
Differences are a beautiful thing since I'm alive
In my blood there is war, loss and departures
But above all, there is love, love
In my blood there’s a mix of people and mist
But only love can tell my story well
Oh oh oh
If there is one thing to remember
It’s that where I’m from we’re all about sharing
Of course life isn’t always fun
But we inherit a kindness of heart
Where I’m from, there is transmission
it smells of the city, it smells of the sea
Money is counted in traditions
In tears on my grandfather's cheeks
Where I’m from, women are strong
Men are not afraid to cry
Our skin is tough as old leather
You're loved, whoever you are
Where I’m from, no one really dies
Since all become memories
For whom we sing together at dusk
Yes, where I’m from the dead are smiling
I’m from everywhere
Where I’m from, people sow, sow
Make seeds come to life and bloom
Where I’m from, people love each other,
love each other
Differences are a beautiful thing since I'm alive
In my blood there is war, loss and departures
But above all, there is love, love
In my blood there’s a mix of people and mist
But only love can tell my story well
I’m from everywhere
Where I’m from, people sow, sow
Make seeds come to life and bloom
Where I’m from, people love each other,
love each other
Differences are a beautiful thing since I'm alive
I’m from everywhere
Where I’m from, people sow, sow
Make seeds come to life and bloom
Where I’m from, people love each other,
love each other
Differences are a beautiful thing since I'm alive
