Come On

Chorus:
I can see your eyes, ears but not your nose
I can hear you fart but cant tell if it’s gross
all day takeaway, dim sum microwave
the plastic wont go away, my boss just cut my pay
verse 1
It’s stuff with the mask on. kleenex everything I touched on
scrolling my facebook, ma jong games go virtual
how I want to be close with somebody
listen to the experts, cover my nose and chin properly
wipe all my furnitures, my skin peeling off from rubbing
I turned my home into a clinic
I eat facing the wall, how unreal
and why am I doing this? I just to want to be a burden
and why am I doing this? I dont want my family quarantined
and why am I doing this? I’m scared of death, the nothingness
verse 2
put on full harzard gear to go on a plane
it’s not halloween or cosplay party
alcohol everyday, hustle at home
dont dare to go karaoke and caused trouble
gatherings become a crime, drink wine with a straw under a mask
the experts’ predictions are baseless
hidden spreader hidden fear
I’m tired of masking up daily
I dont want no travel bubble
I dont want no plastic barriers, having infra red guns pointed at me
virtual shopping birtual economy
things that can be touched are getting scarse
we all get sick and die and fall down in time
2020, come on!

Suspicion

verse 1
like a rubberband stretched to its limit, a man can only deal with so much stress
if you are happy, something is going on
if you cry, there’s an agenda
questions and answers all over the place
why are you suddenly so friendly
followed all my followers, liked all the comments
cleared the browse history
everything has an agenda, there needs do be some gain
shooting with a selfie-stick, thanks my fans on IG
shall I travel north for opportunity? or go West to the states?
when is the cold war over? Japanese yen or US dollar?
you look friendly but then you stab me
you condemn he condemns you, he condemns you condemn him
you sue him sue you, he sue you sue him
verse 2
the whole new world is falling apart
crazy antics getting overboard
you betray me, I destroy you
the great tragedy, in a deadly spiral
no hurry but be quick
if you dont like it, just leave
done many bad things, waiting for judgement
the fortune teller told me I have to suffer for longer
conspiracy conspiracy conspiracy
the more convoluted the more believable
KOL tells me the answers, I dont need to think
KOLs are so believable it’s to risky to be rational
big data is the future, common sense no longer common
I suspect you suspect him suspect me, suspect the system, something is wrong
I suspect you suspect him suspect me, just be a child and care no more
wrecking havoc

Love You Anyway

verse 1
O, my dear, you are now a teenager
you got a new bed but still sleeps with light on
it’s fate that you are a Hong Konger, and I’m your father
how do you feel about that?
online games, youtube, spotify
it’s so hard to get you out of your room
hanging out with your friends in the virtual world
so much fun with games and trade
so much effort in naming your avatar
getting the coolest profile picture
you like trap and also Eminem
always giving me the run down after a new episode of JoJo
in this crazy world, so much fear so little love
do you blame me for not leaving?
in this crazy world, life becomes a competition
and ended up with nothing
Chorus
13yo you, 40 something me
it’s just wrong to assume you are like me
13yo you, 40 something me
love you anyway, you be you, me be me
verse 2
I thought you’d like swimming, dream of cycling to Tai Po with you
in fact you are not interested with these things,
that’s just you, no one’s fault
cant even get angry, we sure have many heated moments
that’s just the way it is, we gonna live with this
will you speak to me when I’m 70?
the teenage you wants to keep a distant
the teenage you are so private
the teenage you are finding yourself
dont over or under estimate yourself, follow what you like
we haven’t pushed you into elite schools
we haven’t planned everything out for you
in this crazy world, so much fear so little love
let us be the exception

正念 - Right Mind

verse 1
the world is tricky, so many tragedies happening
we got only one shot, no one knows when we are gone
nothing we can do, if we stay still we will lose
that’s the reality for all man
my life is full of bitterness, things dont go my way, bad luck keeps coming
it can always get worse, trying to make a living
just want to hide, wishing that all fake things will go away
be stubborn, dont regret. do I deserve to be better
I’m tired of keeping a nice face, always worrying I’m gonna break
my head is like on a 36 hours shift
cant relax with so much worries
there’s no summer in my world, just winter
I can never get through to the lifeline
Chorus
come what may, whatever, bitter wine has a sweet aftertaste
being hopeful is not being stupid
I accept there may not be reward, every hardship only makes me strong
even though dreams dont come true, it’s ok I keep the right mind
verse 2
pandemic, shut the city. we all die that’s justice
health is not granted, let’s drink up tonight
gaming addiction is a sport
I always keeping my social distance anyway
2 wrongs doesnt make it right, is there anyone who will take me as me
the system is non-negotiable, the kids are on the go
the parents dont care, they are chasing pokemon
let us be clear, the world is not getting better
the politicians are lying, tall as buildings
romanticising everything, like JoJo comics
Facebook is not god, dont believe it
not everything has an answer
the sun shines on good guys and bad guys
everything changes

2020 what’s special about SAR Hong Kong?
saying goodbye to friends who are leaving, good fortune,
have a good life
parliament has changed, no opposition
Biden or Trump, feeling bitter
Five eyes alliance is the righteous, where there’s men there’s war
I hate politics, nice empty words
as far as I know I better not care
we are all good with our words
“suspicious”, “maybe”, “possibly” “presumably”
we are left with half faces
everyone looks familiar, shy
waiting and waiting, cant wait no more
masked up, still trying to love
