[Lyrics]
[Verse]
We met in 05 and the rest was history
05年認識你 後來嘅事係盡人皆知
I hated you at first, I’m sorry forgive me
一開始幾討厭 希望你唔好介意
I was still in middle school, and I didn’t understand
嗰時讀緊中學 有好多野未明
Wanted to leave you asap but you had other plans
我想走 但係你想見證我嘅成長過程
You were my first love, you were my first fight
哩度係我嘅初戀, 拳頭初次揮動
First drug that kept my mama up at night
第一次吸毒, 我記得母親幾咁心痛
I almost died for you, you gave me this pain
差啲為你而死, 心切嘅嗰種痛楚
just to teach me how to use it now I’m runnin’ this thang
而家學識運用 放咗落嚟錄歌
Introduced me to people, that now I would die for
認識咗好多兄弟 我嘅信心保證
I rep you so hard, you are someone I’d ride for, on everything
當兄弟開始爬山 我會繼續努力
And we did just that..
所以我發誓
Even fought police for you cuz we got your back
即使遇到極權都唔會跪低
I guess your mama got shook, cuz I know she trippin’ now
見到嗰個女人嚇到廢枕忘餐
Just to save you she done shut the whole city down
出師不利 而家又話要封關
Says you got sick, but everybody sick too
賴你病咗 但係有邊個地方唔係
It’s been 2 years I just wanna say we miss you.. damn
眨吓眼又兩年 我掛住你個本體
[Hook x 2]
Where did we go wrong..
係咪我哋犯錯
Where did we go wrong huh
我哋有邊度做錯
My mama told me to move on
阿媽想我從頭嚟過
But you’re all that I know in this world Hong Kong, forreal
但我淨係認識一個地方, 香港
They’re telling me to give up on you
啲人都話係時候要放棄你
But you were the only one that gave me a home
但係由始至終都係得你有比我一個家嘅感覺
Even though I feel like I never really belonged anywhere
即是我覺得自己唔屬於邊一度
So you’re always gonna have a piece of me
你喺我心裏面永遠都會有一個好重要嘅位置
[Verse 2]
Who are you anymore? Do you even know?
我想問你知唔知你自己已經變成咩樣
You lettin’ helpers and elderly sleep in the cold?
你係咪要啲外傭同年老嘅集體瞓喺冰箱
Is anything worth it if you pay with your soul?
出賣完個靈魂仲有啲乜嘢路向
We can’t even breathe but your face is exposed?
我哋都未敢呼吸 但係你夠膽露樣
You actin’ real Hollywood, like you ain’t from the road
玩埋啲荷里活嘅把戲 但係你冇蒲荷李活道
Took our jobs, but still said to pay it in full,
我哋連份工都冇埋 你就照收全數
said charge it to the game.. but our bills are due
唔想玩啲咁嘅遊戲 又係時候交租
You know that landlords always in their feelings too
我明白啲包租公嘅心態只係想搲撈
Like goddamn.. we had enough tears
已經欲哭無淚
Some of us haven’t even seen our family in years
有啲幾時先見返屋企人都毫無頭緒
Some never again.. so many missed funerals..
有啲就冇埋機會 錯過幾個喪禮
I know we fight, but damn, what did we do to you
我哋試過爭取 但俾人當係衰仔
I wrote this letter, for our times together
寫嘅呢首歌 係希望可以一齊
a reminder that there won’t be another you
提醒呢度嘅人 呢個地方唔應該分體
Still got a piece of the city in my heart forever
哩個城市已經植入我嘅心臟
so they can kill me but not my love for you, Jap Boy
即使我有日被殺 滅去唔到我對呢個地方嘅深愛, 日本仔
Everything gonna be alright
聽日一定會好天嘅
Add oil, Hong Kong
加油香港
