phortissimo - for me lyrics

[chorus: chaewon lee]
and i’ve traveled around the globe
and yet i still don’t know
is there a place for me?
i’ve seen a lot of things
seen the hurt and the pain
but is there some love for me
i’ve been patiently waiting
for a place i can call my haven
where i can lay for some days
and they say please stay the same

[verse 1: phortissimo]
man, let me take you way back
nestled in the woods of south cackalack
where they spewin’ attacks at your temple, where they sent from
realize this america, that’s their welcome
lately man i’ve been in a slump
found out the whole neighborhood voted for trump
i try not to take it personally
people ain’t the best when there’s ignorance and uncertainty
no yamazama love for my community
’cause growin’ up i never felt i fit in truthfully
it’s black and white and i’m writing between them lines then
tellin’ y’all it’s time, we leaving the side lines bench
still got my pride, ident-ty all invested
but people keep insistin’ that our presence still a question?
rupi said we’re immigrants from birth
trading womb for earth and that we’re all just connected

[verse 2: phortissimo]
sh-t, another role with an accent, right?
cheap jokes used for laughs at night, but what’s the price
of being kept down, out of mind and sight
’cause everybody plays their part and i’m the stereotype
ain’t no one like me, up on tv
still waitin’ for an asian james bond to be seen
still waitin’ for our stories ’cause they’re all incomplete
we can do what y’all do, man just give us the screen, d-mn
f-ck apu, word to hari kondabolu
they recyclin’ the same stale jokes, it’s getting old dude
kids who used to mock my food in the lunchroom
probably gon’ cop that same sh-t at the whole foods (hmm)
like my pops says, it’s all economic
tragic, systematic leave you trapped with empty pockets
and if it doesn’t, it’ll still drain your soul
they’ll never love you so you gotta love yours

[bridge: chaewon lee (phortissimo)]
i’ve been flyin’ all solo, i’ve been for so long
i’ve been flyin’ all solo, i’ve been for so long
i’ve been flyin’ all solo, i’ve been for so long
(ain’t nothin’ change, ain’t nothin’ change
ain’t nothin’ change, ain’t nothin’ change)
i’ve been flyin’ all solo, i’ve been for so long
(ain’t nothin’ change, ain’t nothin’ change)
