lirik lagu bohan phoenix - unconditional
yeah yeah, uh, bohan
___, i feel you though
i feel you, man
let me get this off my chest, yeah
as i get older, i learn just how very little i know
about this life and even less about myself
i’m grateful for chances to grow
mama, she raised me all by herself
my daddy, he never showed me the ropes
in my darkest hours and my proudest moments
it was music that gave me the hope, yeah
my step~father and mama couldn’t understand why
i was fascinated with the music that came from the black culture
that even after i graduated i stuck with it
oh yeah, they had all their reasons to doubt it
but they could tell that this music had gave me an outlet
and they could tell it gave me confidence
it gave me way more than just common sense
taught me some values that shaped the man that i am
it truly felt heaven sent
brought me friends that done held it down to this very day
i know they gon’ love me for life
brought me to places around the world i only dreamed of
all from the words that i write
it was through music that i had learned
the concept of unconditional love
when other chinese kids didn’t really f~ck with me cuz i was weird and rappin too much
no pokemon, no magic cards
i was tryna spit magic bars
the white kids couldn’t understand me
they just thought i was actin hard
sh~t, it was black kids that first showed me love
gospel choir, where i learned to trust
mr. reed from jubilee, nurturing my passion
a blessing from god
he put me up on my first stage
black was the angel
blessing me throughout my worst days
forever i’m thankful
[chinese interlude]
不知道————这个问题我们的————是社么，对吧？
————这是————————————爱 ————
yeah, uh
george floyd, breonna taylor
you’ve seen the news, go on and say the names
seventeen years in this country now
i seen how the white man played the game
tried to explain to my relatives
back in china this here is not the same
as people picking on me just because i’m chinese
so the virus i’m to blame, nah nah
we weren’t sold here as slaves
murdered and k!lled er’y day
the color of our skin wasn’t made as a weapon against us
i tried to explain that
yes, we also have been oppressed but
nah, these shouldn’t be compared at all
cuz when i’m in the wip f~cked up and the police pull up, nah i don’t get scared at all
what’s more frustrating is trying to rally the rappers from overseas
most of them want to keep it real until times like these you don’t hear a peep
millions made from black culture, you’re world famous, you’re on world tour
a black square and a pr statement, that’s all that you are good for?
but they don’t hear me, so i hit the streets
protesting with no rest
with everything that rap gave to me
it’s only right i give mo’ back
been lookin all around, seein all these clowns, gadam it they so wack
can’t believe i called them homies, gadam i get so mad that
i let my emotions spill
but shorty had told me to chill
maybe to write how i feel
down in a song cuz it heals
cuz who am i to judge right or wrong?
i’m just a kid with a pen
hoping to change the world a rhyme at a tmie
but change, it starts from within, yeah
