To Whoever
Am I dreaming?
(Wake up!)
To whoever finds this message
I remember the life I had in Guam
The beach, the way the water felt
The warm sunlight on my skin
Shit, life was pretty good
I really miss those days
But then again, I hated school
I hated how people shouted at
Me for looking different
Calling me names
Just because of my skin color you know?
But I didn't really care
As long as my mom and dad were smiling
I thought nothing could go wrong
What could go wrong?
Nothing, nothing
What could nothing
2007, February 4th
I was packing my things
And I was leaving for Korea
I didn't know why at the time
All I knew was I had to say goodbye
To the place I called home
And say hello to
Mister sun shine
I ain't got no time yeah
Mister fast car
I don't want no ride no
Mister city lights
I don't want no fight
I don't want to hide
I don't want to lie
And I want to know why?
Why I had to feel incomplete
Every second of my week
Like why I had to have 3 jobs
Just to stay on my feet
Why I had to enlist in the army
Before I could even speak
Or why my dad had to be diagnosed
With something he couldn't beat cancer
Honestly, it felt like death
But he was facing death
So I was confused
I remember asking myself
Where do we go when we die?
Hell? Heaven?
Do we enter a void?
Space? Reincarnation?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Too many questions with no answers
Where do we go?
God I don't know!
Where do I go?
Now fast forward 5 years
Coming to you live
Lite cool
I guess a lot has happened since then
But here I am asking myself the same questions
