[Intro]

Is this the American?

Is this the American?

Is this the American?

Is this the Ame–


[Chorus]

Woke up in London with you next to me

Made love in Brixton with both hands around your neck

I'm back in New York on British ecstasy

So I feel like an immigrant in America

Yes, I am just an immigrant in America


[Verse 1]

Cigar and cigarette ashes

As I open all my luggage up

I still speak my native language

But I only want your foreign tongue


[Pre-Chorus]

Remember? Remember?

When you spilled coffee on my J

Coffee on my J Dilla vinyl

I didn't even mind, didn't even mind (crazy)

When you spilled coffee on my J

Coffee on my J Dilla vinyl

I didn't even mind, didn't even mind (baby)


[Chorus]

Woke up in London with you next to me

Made love in Brixton with both hands around your neck

I'm back in New York on British ecstasy

So, I feel like an immigrant in America

Yes, I am just an immigrant in America


[Verse 2]

South London, born in Colombia

Texts in Spanish that she's all alone

She said she's found an apartment

I'm in Harlem, screaming, "take me home"


[Pre-Chorus]

Remember? Remember?

When you spilled coffee on my J

Coffee on my J Dilla vinyl

I didn't even mind, didn't even mind (crazy)

When you spilled coffee on my J

Coffee on my J Dilla vinyl

I didn't even mind, didn't even mind (baby)


[Outro]

Woke up in London with you next to me

Made love in Brixton with both hands around your neck

I'm back in New York on British ecstasy

So, I feel like an immigrant in America, I miss you

Yes, I feel like an immigrant in America, that's how I feel...
