Born in a world
Trynna dodge her
Identity curled
Least I can be a Dodger
Yet acquisition delayed
Showed signs I couldn't keep up
Got RSP aid
Only learn English to backup
Yet my Spanish is a schmuck
Get by with American luck
Cry as I was stuck
No bilingual buck
Picking up words as I go
Good thing living in LA
I'm a pro
By language contact
But not okay
When my words are loss
Hard to get a point across
When not speaking full
Little Spanglish never hurt
Family are overt
To learn too
Unfortunate I couldn't learn
Yet I yearn
To be a heritage learner
But I could be a Dodger
