After his detainment and eventually denied entry to the United States, <strong>Constanza</strong> began to wrestle with exactly it means to be displaced in the United States. Though now an American citizen herself, <strong>Constanza</strong>, recalls a time when she was just a visa-carrying alien herself when she stated that:</font><br /> <blockquote> <p><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">“America is a land of opportunity that many people never get to see because of certain laws that prevent foreigners from obtaining a visa. I wrote this song to make people aware of what our [The USA's] government expects from its international citizens and to bring attention to how much it lets the native citizens get away with.”</font></p> </blockquote> <p><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">The lyrics of “<em>Just Another Alien</em>” are taken directly from U.S. immigration form DS_156 and repeatedly begin with the line “have you ever&#8230;” They paint a vivid picture of the type of &#8216;American&#8217; this administration expects, and what type will be denied access: </font><br /> <blockquote> <p><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">“Have you ever been arrested or convicted for any offense or crime, even though subject of a pardon, amnesty or other similar legal action? Have you ever unlawfully distributed or sold a controlled drug, or been a prostitute or procurer for prostitutes?” </font></p> </blockquote> <p><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">It goes on to ask the most poignant question of them all, “Have you ever been a human being?”</font> <p><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">Please take a listen to this track at <strong>Constanza</strong>&#8217;s EPK (</font><a href="http://www.mynewsletterbuilder.com//tools/refer.php?s=208727301&amp;u=18136539"><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">http://www.zerokilled.tv/COSTANZA_SonicDiary_EPK.html</font></a><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">) or </font><a href="http://www.myspace.com/"><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">MySpace</font></a><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2"> page (</font><a href="http://www.mynewsletterbuilder.com//tools/refer.php?s=208727301&amp;u=18136551"><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">www.myspace.com/costanzafrancavilla</font></a><font face="Trebuchet MS" size="2">.)
