This is written for the victims of the earthquake
Trapped in a building stay trembling when the earth shakes
Could be my birthplace or my house too
Rebuilding of my life without a how to
And so I'm tasteless 'cause I don't taste it
Face glued to the tube then erase it
Blame it on the races or the past invasions
Of my home continent instead of human relations
Post in my status inside I'm careless
With a couple thousand of miles apart I feel fearless
And see it's not me and so I feel fine
Put it in the backburner have a great time
But that lacks effort with bad track record
Instead of back tracking we should really act faster
And keep after we keep praying
And start to take action instead of just saying
If I could make it all a dream a dream a dream
Without the pain and suffering I seem to see
If we could walk alone the places I would go
When this is gone before tomorrow
I got a daughter
She was laughing when I pushed her on a swing
Before the we both felt disaster
A second after
Like a bad backlash in a fat crash
Pedal on the gas faster
I heard laughter
Then I heard a wave crash
Seeing glass float around my feet like ASAP
I couldn't really think or fully comprehend
And so I grabbed her by the hand in AN attempt
To flee the land
As I'm running through the sand
I see a house fall
Sky scrapers on the verge of falling how tall
A bunch of rubble with a stream of blood around it
I tried to hide her eyes
But inside I couldn't stomach
So close that I could touch it
And I could breathe it
The smell of death crept inside my chest felt bulimic
The sight of body parts scattered laying in the streets
I'm praying for the weak
Hoping this is just a dream dream dream
If I could make it all a dream a dream a dream
Without the pain and suffering I seem to see
If we could walk alone the places I would go
When this is gone before tomorrow
The worst case situation
We know and do nothing
We let our days past acting like we know nothing
And keep moving like we see a brother losing
Blood on the sidewalk
Let me get white chalk
Thinking one minute that
I'm proud of my community
For calling out a racist uproar unity
Ching chong ling feels like a public enemy
But then I see the news
And what the numbers telling me
Take a back seat the false it pretends to be
Nuclear reactor oh an epiphany
See now it's real because it starts effecting me
Let me make a phone call
Homeland security
This isn't they are a student or a racist
This is we are a nation and the faceless
Staring in the face a tragic moment in time
I come with open arms your struggle is mine
If I could make it all a dream a dream a dream
Without the pain and suffering I seem to see
If we could walk alone the places I would go
When this is gone before tomorrow
If I could make it all a dream a dream a dream
Without the pain and suffering I seem to see
If we could walk alone the places I would go
When this is gone before tomorrow
