lirik lagu jason chu - new eyes
[intro: jason chu]
face
[verse 1: jason chu]
new eyes that look at the world in new ways
new eyes make contact, blue, green and grey
new eyes i realized i never knew
when you realized feelings you trapped inside o’ you
new eyes that see the respect you earned
new eyes that shaped by the lessons you learned
new eyes attract new guys and new games
and tonight those eyes will be filled with new gazes
new eyes that thrill the first minute you saw
world through new lashes, no chains involved
new eyes insist you’re taken serious
new eyes fill with confidence and trust
new life written with the p-ssage of time
new eyes that gleam with color that won’t die
who knew i’d see such beauty and love
through eyes that combine perfection
and flaws
[chorus: ruth cho]
i may not be what you think
as standard beauty
but i love my face, my eyes
and body (and body)
[verse 2: jason chu]
those eyes were once made middle school jokes
those eyes are stories of our kinfolk
those eyes are dark but glow in sunlight
our people been hurt but still we gon’ fight
those eyes contain five thousand years of pride
those eyes saw dyin’ stars in old skies
those eyes are shy but those eyes are kind
those eyes are so wise, those eyes are like mine
those eyes speak of turnin’ the other cheek
those eyes turned down so they couldn’t see you weep
they teased you because those eyes are too thin
synonymous with cheap or prost-tute skin
those eyes are me, those eyes are family
those eyes are id of your ident-ty
those eyes are not weak, those eyes are not wrong
those eyes are holy, those eyes are from god
[chorus: ruth cho]
i may not be what you think
as standard beauty
but i love my face, my eyes
and body (and body)
[verse 3: jason chu]
what’s the price of confidence
what the cost to be happy in your own skin
not my place to question
but do you see a stranger when the mirror is reflectin’?
you said i’d never understand
the pressure from magazine covers
asian mothers, and men
whether tan, bleached, or blonde
we remix our colors like we cover pop songs
in a bottle how we battle all the barriers, right?
some drink, some color their hair ev’ry night
some try to stand out, some try to act white
found music, but i never been the stereotype
new eyes break old lies
new skin needs new wine
new highs and new vibes come through
with new life, second coming like christ
you told me that therapy
taught you so much about our parents
we got a chance to reset the path
watch our generation bring the future to the past
[chorus: ruth cho]
i may not be what you think
as standard beauty
but i love my face, my eyes
and body (and body)
i may not be what you think
as standard beauty
but i love my face, my eyes
and body
