Lyrics
Intro - mooNchild:
-------------------------
Uh have you ever wondered why,
your livin millions of miles,
away from your homeland,
what could have been,
growin up i know every asian and anyone else,
who immigrated here,
can relate to this!
1st Verse - Assassin:
---------------------------------
Somebody tell me cause i don't understand,
what it means to be Korean livin in a foreign land,
am i supposed to feel this shitty,
when my visions don't follow traditions,
i'm havin visions of a country i used to be in,
or maybe they're just false recollections,
through neglectance see the way i'm on my way,
i'm just searching for acceptance,
so take a minute to reflect, self check,
to see if this song is about you and,
conversatin with your parents leads to depression,
when you can't find the words to express your emotions,
that's when it gets deep, deeper than oceans,
deeper than the seas that we crossed over nations,
and then every stage advance Australia fair,
but never forget your roots don't let them disappear,
memories can fade,
but the blood in your veins is made,
and that's why we will always remain the same
Chorus (Singing - Mel):
---------------------------------
I can make it on my way,
even if times get hard,
and i did it my way,
and that's the way that it's gonna stay
2nd Verse - Admiral:
-----------------------------
Yo born in Australia,
Korea was unfamiliar,
but the pride flows in my veins,
Ahn-Dong Kim Shi is the name,
to this land it still remains,
to reign throughout the sunburnt plains,
but I still feel the pain,
the mental strain,
i used to complain,
but my mother always explained,
to be strong and to refrain,
cause one day I’ll be on top of that food chain,
and to this day I’m still waiting for that day,
to come someday
3rd Verse - Scientist:
------------------------------
This life in another land,
with strife I must comprehend,
the fact that my knowledge of my motherland,
could contract into oblivion,
through age and lose my Korean,
culture and language,
hurts so much that,
my parents message,
wont be passed through my lineage,
as I embrace these Caucasian ways,
and my childhood memories,
and ethnic heritage is erased,
so I must reverse this erosion,
and remember I’m Korean
Chorus (Singing - Mel):
---------------------------------
I can make it on my way,
even if times get hard,
and i did it my way,
and that's the way that it's gonna stay
4th Verse - mooNchild:
---------------------------------
Through many troubled nights and days,
livin in a foreign land far away,
there's always moments where you think back and ask,
i wonder what kinda life i woulda had,
if my family never immigrated but in our homeland,
we were born and raised,
what type of person i would be,
what type of life that i would lead,
but nothin can ever change history,
the sacrifices that my parents made for me,
i respect and give my best,
tho not the perfect son at times,
i could never verbally admit that what i feel inside,
is a love that i hold tight,
irreplaceable like the national pride,
that would cause tears in my eyes,
each time i touch down at the place of my birth,
i smell the air and kiss the ground cause i'm a Korean at heart!
Chorus 2x (Singing - Mel, Rap - mooNchild):
---------------------------------------------------------------
Singing - Mel: I can make it on my way,
even if times get hard,
and i did it my way,
and that's the way that it's gonna stay
Rap - mooNchild: Korean immigrated,
Asians understand it,
listen to the lost cries of a second generation,
underestimated,
but deep inside our blood and veins,
we as the children,
respect our parents decision,
read it, feel it,
missin our homeland,
the culture and tradition,
we won't forget it,
you can almost taste it,
so here we come with this song,
written from the tears that were wrapped up from the fallen
