kam prada - sid's song lyrics

[intro]
he moved here to this country with nothing but a nickel in his jeans
he didn’t have no money but had a family to feed
he didn’t even speak the language when they came as refugees
he saved the generations and he saved our family tree

[verse 1]
he came here to this country with nothing but a few dimes in his pocket
they had the clothes all on they bodies and nothing else
they moved onto quilchеna street in this newfound town richmond bc
before thе high rises and houses were ever built
soccer at the nearby fieldhouse where my uncle and dad would play
dad would tell me all the stories, all the goals from those good old days
but sid was always working to put food up on their plates
d+mn near 80 hour work week but he’d still hate to miss a game

[bridge]
when the doves sing, when the rain falls down
when the lights turn to darkness don’t you leave
when your lungs quit, when you’re six feet underground
you’ll live forever through your legacy, oh oh

[chorus]
he moved here to this country with nothing but a nickel in his jeans
he didn’t have no money but had a family to feed
he made a whole new life here for his kids and progeny
our future’s looking brighter from all he did, we’re his legacy
we’re his legacy, we’re his legacy
we’re his legacy
[verse 2]
the rain here feels so gloomy but it helps the grass to grow
you’ll live in this town forever so long as the fraser river flows
about that good old saying the night is darkest before the dawn
i’m doing my best to stay so strong but it hurts inside to think you’re gone

[outro]
mmm, mmm
this is the story about a man who gave his life to his family in richmond bc
