Same Cry lyrics
Song information
Artist: Jin Album: The Rest Is History
Lyrics
[Lt] We may look different But we see the same sky We may see different But we cry the same cry
[Jin] To wake up daily and sleep better nights That's what we all wish for to seek a better life, right? It's unfortunate when tragedy strikes But the truth is, reality bites June 4th, '89, a day residents feared Now known as the massacre at tiananmen square The day I turned seven, they were mourning and grieving Thousands of innocent died for what they believed in Armed with nothing but heart and a point to prove Stood in front of tanks and refused to move What would you do? run or stand still? When the life's on the line to test the mans will Seeking change and they found it, but in death Strangers, yet they were my blood and flesh This happened in china but you ain't gotta be asian To relate to the struggle, pain, and heartache So..
[Lt] You'll never know, you'll never get it There is no choice, we can't forget it When we look up, we see the same sky When we look up, we cry the very same cry
[Jin] See I'm a grown man It hurts when I turn on the news And see what's goin on in my homeland The sars epidemic, could've been lies Could've stand for "should asians really survive?" They'll try anything to break your family apart Politics will break down the manliest heart Can the child within my heart rise above? If there's a billion of us I shouldn't have to look for love Overpopulation, but damn, just to meet the needs It's illegal to have more than one seed How can you dictate birth, regardless to women And the parents, they make the hardest decisions Sons keep their family names, so that's not an option Imagine being forced to put your daughter for adoption And even though, it's beyond your control Keep ya head up, here's a song for ya soul
[Lt] You'll never know, you'll never get it There is no choice, we can't forget it When we look up, we see the same sky When we look up, we cry the very same cry
[Jin] If you don't know where you came from You can't get the way you tryin to go Ain't no denying so, it's true I got some big shoes to fill But if I don't lead the movement, then who will? Stuck between a rock and a hard place Thinkin 'bout the refugees that went to see gods face Sixteen thousand miles across the ocean tides Some died, some got lucky and survived I wouldn't call it luck, they reached their destination Modern-day slavery without the plantation Them sneakers on ya feet cost a hundred a pop My people's making 15 cents a day at sweatshops To make them kicks so you can look good Think we open restaurants 'cause we cook good? Hell no, we ain't got no choice I gotta speak up, without me my people have no voice
[Lt] You'll never know, you'll never get it There is no choice, we can't forget it When we look up, we see the same sky When we look up, we cry the very same cry X2
