lirik lagu tha blue herb - i'm private army
accordin to karma, i will die by mistaken ident-ty.
it’s not funny, that fate is itself a mistake.
this is what i heard when i was just a kid, that my great-grand father died while he was walking
on a street on which he never walked before.
he was killed by a surpise landslide, old men in the neighbourhood said it was a case of mistaken
identify.
my uncle was mistaken as a maoist activist who had the same name save letter spelled differently,
n-body’s heard from him since he got arrested 8 years ago.
recently i don’t hear it, but everytime i was about to leave the house, my father used to tell me;
‘don’t stand out, make sure you don’t get found by the karma, don’t get mistaken for another.
alright? don’t stand out, grandpa and your uncle were also the eldest brother.’
so i walked out to the street, bending forward as i stepped on my shoelace.
miserably and heartlessly, today’s sun also sets, and the west wind brings a coldness.
the darkness slowly shaves the sunset in the east that transforms the curtain, and the day goes to
sleep.
indistinct contours and complexions, this is the beginning of a morning where pleasure amd money sing loudest.
the dead black birds start to caw, this is the world where secret businesses have the advantage.
i saw my father, exhausted by asking round money lenders, dragging an undetachable shadow from the roof.
a loser down on his luck, i’m tried of hearing ‘at least you are alive.’
the tears i had to shed for injustice have long dried up, i seeked desperately for a way to escape.
i could no longer stand living on a doormat, that’s when i joined the family of my partners ram and ski.
ski worked the street since he was 18 years old, the same age as i did.
he tricked the most war
