shimin - sydney lyrics

[chorus]
funny how an asian guy like me wants to be
some kind of superstar with his music
so he’s leaving his own family, his country
coming over to sydney
follow his dream

[verse 1]
i’ve got my bachelor degree then fly straight to sydney
pack my stuff and get on a journey
i’m just a boy with a head full of dreams, you know
i wanna work and earn some money for my music, yo
i thought my asian fellows’d help me get a job, but no
who would’ve thought that they been livin’ so practical
‘coz all they care about is the money
they wanna make the people pay cash only
‘coz that’s the way they can evade the tax levies
i work my -ss off but they just pay me pennies
and i am like

[chorus]
funny how an asian guy like me wants to be
some kind of superstar with his music
so he’s leaving his own family, his country
coming over to sydney
follow his dream

[verse 2]
i meet a guy the other day on a bus, you know
he keep on swearing “get the f— out of this place my
bro!
you people come invade my country, take the jobs away
give me a dollar or i’m gonna blow your head a way”
and then the visa change, what a shame, you should know
there ain’t no way for you to live in this country
though
unless you be a nurse or you better rush to the lawyer
today
pay him a hundred grands then you can have a partner to
fake

[chorus]
funny how an asian guy like me wants to be
some kind of superstar with his music
so he’s leaving his own family, his country
coming over to sydney
follow his dream

[bridge]
people all come here tryin’ to immigrate
working through the night, grinding through the day
build a better life in a better place
rather than go back to the d-mn country

[chorus]
funny how an asian guy like me wants to be
some kind of superstar with his music
so he’s leaving his own family, his country
coming over to sydney
follow his dream

[speech]

so would you like to leave or would you like to stay?
this is the question that people ask me all the time and honestly, i still don’t have the answer to it. i know that many people out there are trying all sorts of way to get a pr but that’s not what i’m gonna do because it’s not worth it. but at the same time i feel very lost as well, you know. i just don’t know where i belong. what i’m looking for is a place that makes me feel like home, a place that makes me feel happy. so i guess the question that i need to figure out now would be “where is home?”
