Trying to board a plane Stopped at the gate Taken to a windowless room Filling out paperwork Saying I've been here since birth I don't speak much Portuguese Just enough to say it's not me I'm sure Ottawa is better When it's not on your record Think they'd write a letter To prove it wasn't you Someone used my name To get away From their mistakes From their mistakes Checking in my past What have I done Am I who I am to anyone Talking to county clerks Finding out who made this worse I don't even own a gun I'm sure Ottawa is better When it's not on your record Think they'd write a letter To prove it wasn't you Someone used my name To get away From their mistakes From their mistakes I'm sure Ottawa is better When it's not on your record Think they'd write a letter To prove it wasn't you Someone used my name To get away From their mistakes From their mistakes From their mistakes From their mistakes
