Beside Me歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Gordon Tsai
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Gordon Tsai
[00:16.596]Four hundred years since the trip was made
[00:18.037]Placed on a boat and was laced with chains
[00:20.057]Got a bunch of other slaves that were made the same
[00:22.000]Get a taste of the states through a grave of dreams
[00:24.001]Like 'my god made us' - 'your god didn't'
[00:28.278]First you gonna kill us then, say you Christian
[00:29.784]Every whip that you cracked on my back ripped in it
[00:31.453]Intervention of the sin but you fear no sentence
[00:32.256]You could even ask Emmett ask George and Arbery
[00:34.033]Call it manifest destiny its robbery
[00:36.055]Take another ride through the journey of the south
[00:37.858]Want to flag another black man fire when in doubt
[00:40.044]It don't matter whats the cause when you're running the law
[00:42.006]First thing's to draw with no feelings involved
[00:43.971]I'm not saying that i know but the feelings are raw
[00:45.996]How can anybody sit back let poison evolve?
[00:47.462]Do you see what I see?
[00:47.932]You breathe the same air I breathe
[00:50.525]This isn't how it should be
[00:53.175]We gotta go, right now, lights out
[00:56.070]Change - it's coming to be
[00:58.499]Will you be there beside me
[01:01.905]Change - is coming to be
[01:04.195]I'm an Asian American - first generation
[01:05.957]Meaning that i walk the path of this nation and my heritage
[01:07.904]Honor and shame with a plate full of arrogance
[01:09.994]Side of a bow from LA up to Maryland
[01:11.924]Growing up i never had to get taught
[01:14.019]How to pull over how to handle the cops
[01:15.751]How to show your hands first for bullets get shot
[01:17.785]How to best verse a store when I'm tryna shop
[01:19.795]I could - show up in a hoodie and sweats
[01:21.778]I'm never second guessing when i'm cashing a check
[01:23.645]I could push a tinted Tesla and the feeling is norm
[01:25.250]But if my skin was darker then 'something is wrong'
[01:28.025]Wait - i know i fight model minority myths
[01:29.979]Like we all subservient we majority rich
[01:31.705]Those are nothing more than lies that I'm trying to evict
[01:33.896]But if black people hurting then we got to assist
[01:34.857]Do you see what I see?
[01:36.448]You breathe the same air I breathe
[01:38.518]This isn't how it should be
[01:41.309]We gotta go, right now, lights out
[01:44.270]Change - it's coming to be
[01:46.530]Will you be there beside me
[01:49.890]Change - is coming to be
[01:52.303]Nasir Jones said that knowledge's king
[01:53.958]Followed only second by the effort you bring
[01:55.898]This is a daily intervention that we're pressing to change
[01:57.759]We're not second guessing nothing cause we're destined to win
[01:59.608]First, can i fight without feeling the hurt?
[02:01.721]Can i really mourn how it feels in a hurst
[02:03.840]If i take another step that's two feet in the dirt
[02:05.718]Who wanna give they comfort up who wanna go first?
[02:07.918]Times complex but we need an ally
[02:10.037]Fight against lies that are built to divide
[02:11.976]When we die, why should the future be denied
[02:13.792]If we try now then the road will be more bright
[02:15.893]'I'm king' thats the nature of sin
[02:18.079]Help me feel above you let me target the skin
[02:19.757]From the ships taking sail we will travel again
[02:21.916]We're focused on the ending not how it begins
[02:23.535]Do you see what I see?
[02:24.570]You breathe the same air I breathe
[02:26.569]This isn't how it should be
[02:29.300]We gotta go, right now, lights out
[02:32.019]Change - it's coming to be
[02:34.422]Will you be there beside me
[02:37.927]Change - is coming to be
