Chinese Food

作曲 : UNKNOWN, COMPOSER

My live have been like

One long journey filled with a lot of ups

And definitely a lot of downs

Check it

I dedicate this verse here to my grandfather

Who passed away earlier this year

At his funeral I ran threw a box full of tissues

My tears are dry but I still miss you

And I promise I will never forget you

These last six bars just made it offical

Yeah I know he can hear me

Even though he don't speak English

He can understand clearly

What his grandson is trying to express

It's tough but I'm trying my best

I remember as a kid just running with him

Every year I'll spend a whole summer with him

Visited him in the projects

And he knew I was interred by them

Shiny objects cutting a Rolex

Out of magazine ads tell me

When I grow up I could buy one for my dad

So much energy like me quite clever

These are memories I will treasure forever

Every now and then I still sheld a tear

Walking through Chinatown

I feel his spirit in the air

For your legacy I go harder

Tell my kids that your great grandfather was a great grandfather

But let me walk you to this timeline take you back to my pops

And moms grind they both immaganted to this country as teenagers

You know tropical American dream chasers

Immagrating blew up like disco

As we moving to New York then to Frisco

My pops said NY let's go

This was in the 70's when he used too rock a fro

Bell bottoms pimp hat with the tilted brim

I seen the pictures and I still don't think it's him

Fast forward 82 that

When he met my moms got married and had a baby too

That baby's who

That baby's me Jin Au Yeung

My moms was whoa young

Only eighteen a senior in high school

When I was eighteen that's was my school

I'm in charge of her life

I put that in every single bar that I write

Picture a young couple trying to get on track

What are the options a resturant or laundry mat

So they plan A

For that plan

I was at the resturant every damn day

But I was only twelve

I justed wanted to play

When my friends would come I gave the food away

I know it that bad for business

So I appogize now

If it still make a differences

I guess deep down I just hated the fact I felt trapped

And that was my way of getting you back

I can't go back in time and I hate it

But I can't tell you

Your hard work was appreciated

See to the coustomer

That just a plate of rice

But to my family that **** can save a life

And this's more than Chinese food

It's a life story of a Chinese dude

And I ain't come here to tell you what to eat

Can't just serve food for thought over a beat

And I to tell you what to eat

It just food for thought over a beat
