Story behind the song
my broken past..
Lyrics
verse 1:
From the moment of conception I was put in this position
To reveal all this hidden truth that causes contradiction.
Stranded at birth, I knew that I had to be strong
Because I was on my own since the day I was born.
Left all by my lonesome just a baby on the streets
Victim to abandonment when I could barely breathe.
Never knew my true parents, but how could you come to see?
What is hidden in your past. what a broken family.
I don=t blame my parents, I blame that the system that created
This Alost and found@ box that made us separated.
Stare up at the stars wondering where you are
And what you=d think of me since I grew up too far
From what you might=ve thought a normal Asian kid is
A genius in his own respect that keeps it all hidden
But this is my life and when I scream I=ll be heard.
When I make a statement they hang on every single word
chorus:
Lost among society
Abandoned by the world
Taught never to give in
Taught never to conform
Stress on my conscience
Family in contemplation
These are my trials,
These are my tribulations
verse 2:
I tried to acquit myself of a life of sin
I=m a gook till I die, there isn=t any end.
My mind is consumed with insecurity
Is there any purpose for a person like me?
To live and die like a soldier to have peace of mind when I go
To get my message across to lift the world off my shoulders.
I told my moms I=d never touch the guns or the drugs
Does it take gats and weed to be considered a thug?
I turn my hat sideways and people look at me
Like I=m a killer-criminal but how could this be?
I live and die for the struggle, I live and die for the cause
I live and die for my people, I live and die for the cross.
Not to disrespect my elders, but my father was a coward
Couldn=t take care of his fam, thought money equaled power
Momma couldn=t love me, poppa couldn=t care for sure
Product of a one night stand, do I have purpose in the world?
Look how my life began I was stricken with disease
Another hopeless life stranded for currency
But this is who I am no matter what the wind blows
Forever and for always it=s all that I know
chorus:
verse 3:
Though I walk through the valleys this cloud follows me
Kept me imprisoned in this cell my mind could never be free.
I couldn=t see the main plan for a person like me
Stricken to a blessed mind, can=t tap the vision to see.
Age 13 I could see I found the gift to perceive
I didn=t want to believe that the world would kill me.
Perhaps I was addicted to the realization
Got lost in my dreams, in my contemplation.
Then my heart died along the lines of my childhood
My mind reigned supreme and my ambitions still stood.
Such a horrible pain to live through, what to do..
When the days that you played were precious and few.
We=re all victims to the system so we have to ban together
To rebel against the man and make it through this stormy weather.
My friends couldn=t find me so I couldn=t find them
Why is it so hard to find a treasured friend?
I gave up hope on friends and friendship
It=s too uncertain people aren=t worthy of it
I believe what=s in the dark will come to light
And if you=re not my family you=re standing on the outside
The devil tried to conquer me pushed me back from making it
This is my story: Tribulations of an Stranded Kid.
