asmr.education - foreign face foreign land كلمات أغنية
[verse 1]
every time i hop on the metro i feel like i’m losing my mind
all i hear are languages that aren’t mine
and when i overhear an accent of my origin
they’re never alone
they’re always with friends
but one thing i know
it’s better than being home
and by home i mean where i’m from
because when you get accustomed to things for so long
they just seem normal
[verse 2]
i’ve had therapists laugh at me during sessions
i’ve had therapists imply that i’m lazy
i’ve had family think i’m faking that i’m crazy
i have too many chips on my shoulder to go back
even just saying going back says it all
because i’d be returning to a land
that represents the past
i’d rather be alone furthering my future
i’d rather be alone hearing six languages on a walk
i’d rather get heartbroken by women from countries and languages i didn’t even know people talk
i’d rather feel like i genuinely lived it
but you know now my life feels like gosling as officer k
[verse 3]
except my ai isn’t a hologram
it’s just text on a screen
just on my phone
but that’s ok
i watch that movie and don’t feel so alone
because you’ll feel it when you’ve been insulted on the street
here and in my homeland
which it isn’t really
h_ll, i don’t even like to call my past place home
because the memories are enough to make a grown man groan
i couldn’t even buy a house at my home
i could only eat cheap ass sandwiches and a burrito if i was feeling fancy
and now i can go out to eat whenever i want, five hundred restaurants in the zone
but i feel the guilt because you know the locals here can’t do the same
feeling jaded
i’m just one of the gentrifiers i used to laugh at
i became the very thing i hated
but once i experienced it i can’t lie
life is easier
now i can see why
those yuppies i hated back home always seemed so happy
they don’t have to drive past the windows of restaurants they can’t afford
[verse 4]
because they can eat without worry
they might even be bored
instead stressed the f_ck out
hoping to get a seven dollar sandwich before the sandwich shop close
because after a long ass day at work i don’t want to pay five dollars per taco at the only place left open in that tiny town
[outro]
these memories can make a grown man groan
because how can you call a place home if it never felt like home?
