vannda - khmer blood lyrics

i see clouds pass by
like silk wrapped across the sky
waters are still
peaceful and serene…
i see mountains
unwavering in perseverance
the earth is a pair of eyes
window to the soul
and when i see forests
they give me the strength to meditate
i negotiate with myself high in the skies
people look at me like i’m a superstar
because i’m rising high amongst the stars
i don’t get stomach pains anymore
cuz i can finally afford good food
i wanna live my life like a rockstar
wanna grow the bare soil
beneath me into something amazing
using only my hands, eyes and body
because i got khmer blood in my veins to protect me
ohh oh oh oh
ohh oh oh oh
ohh oh oh oh
ohh oh oh oh
because i got khmer blood in my veins to protect me
chillin’ like i’m j cole
my blood is cold like the north pole
this beat so old but gold
i can make you fly like you’re riding a swing
can you make you feel like oh [_____]
when vannda k!lling this beat
like ninja assassin’s creed
like a magic spell, up in this [_____]
like a life that is peppered with flavor
don’t abandon your work
keep working on it
keep striving
one day you’ll find that success
but if you remain idle
what will you have left?
the path of life is not the same thing
as the path we walk
climb up each step one by one like going up the staircase
suffer for it like a slave
i can finally see who is my real friend
and who is just a yes man
the paths that i’ve walked are sown with blood, umm yuh
some people cough blood, some get blood clots, umm yuh
some wanna be famous even if it drains their blood dry, umm yuh
and some grew envious of me
but only gave themselves high blood pressure
they play the good guy and i’m the villain
they said they’re the wolves and i’m the sheep
they played the nice guy
but were villains doing bad deeds
and when they pitied themselves
i was the first one to blame
i’ve been through more than enough
to get to where i’m at today
forced to adapt to an environment
opposite to most other countries
stayed sharp, stayed strong
dancing around it like ballet
my face tough, my insides suffering
and too embarrassed to show it
back in the day, when i was weaker
even when i was right they said i was wrong
said that i’m just a kid and a newcomer
they threw it in the dirt for me to kneel
and pick it up
but this is the past that i contend with
learning to become acquainted with backstabbers
as they clung to me like weeds in garden
i negotiate with myself high in the skies
people look at me like i’m a superstar
because i’m rising high amongst the stars
i don’t get stomach pains anymore
cuz i can finally afford good food
i wanna live my life like a rockstar
wanna grow the bare soil beneath me
into something amazing
using only my hands, eyes and body
because i got khmer blood in my veins to protect me
uh uh, i got khmer blood inside me
[_____] anxiety
i’ll eat it all like i’m eating a buffet
we who have khmer blood are born to be resilient
if you wish to challenge us
i doubt that you will be able to endure as we have
money flows in like water
and i use octopus arms to gather it
everyday is my payday
the roots of my core are optimism and equity
and i use my strength to pull it in
roll it the right way
(came out the mud, now i live in the city)
think wiser because now you’ve grown baby
the burden is heavier than you think
this ain’t senior year in high school
gotta think about society
family at every second
thinking of my homeland
i wonder about our progress (uh, uh)
hey hey
how far have we come from where we were?
i wanna be as the shoot that grows strong into bamboo
a son who deserves to inherit his surname
a man destined for his fortunes
a man that people envy
but will only remember his contributions
want to sharpen my mind round like logs
i want to always see the truth
but never overthink it
i want to see this and see that
learn this and learn that
do this and do that
like the [_____] i’ve been told
