(Fawng Daw)
It's Viet Worldwide
Let me take you on a ride
It's Fawng Daw
[Verse 1:]
Uh, this is the city of 8 million residents
People sittin on motorbikes outnumber pedestrians
No legitimate playground for little kids
It's difficult to find trash cans so people litterin.
Many men sippin drippin coffee smokin cigarettes
And senior citizens runnin businesses sellin fish baguettes
In garbage livin orphans sellin lottery tickets
That's all that I witness as I ride through the districts.
Smog in my lungs I'm coughin junk
Got a black medical mask as I walk through the jungle of -
Saigon Sin City, Ho Chi Minh City
The street's been filthy, but the sunset's pretty.
Now I ain't saying that everything's going wrong
But just take a look at the traffic and you'll see what's going on
Saigon ways, Saigon days
As much as I love this place, man I'm gon pray.
[Verse 2:]
I see my people hurtin so I'm back, and I rap to save them
Represent for the Vietnamese, the strugglin peeps, and all the Asians
Man I'm on my grind, we gotta shine, this more than entertainment
Ain't gonna stop till they bury me to “Life Goes On” by Pac is playin.
I know that life is hard, just keep the faith alive
Down in my country people starvin knowin they can't survive
Sellin them lotto tickets to make enough for a plate of rice
And if I'm not gon be changin yours, then you can be sure you're changin mines.
On the streets they stayin broke, no shoes up on their feet
But we as Vietnamese we always find a way to make ends meat
The city's active, and it's pack with no immunity
We need to grab this moment, snatch it like some jewelry.
That's how it is in Saigon cus they need paper too
It's just the way of life so homie I really can't hate on you
But I wanna pave a way for the kids to graduate from school
Or givin a chance in life and makin things right is what I plan to do.
[Verse 3:]
This is the Saigon trap, better keep your eye contact
Cus this is where you get your iPhone snatched, man
Lighta and Fawng Deezy, you can call us Đại Ca
This ain't no rap homie, this the sound of Viet Pride.
It's Viet pride, and you can hear it man we spit nice
You think that this a game but what we say is real life
I'm leakin out the truth cus lately it's been sealed tight
Smaller than the average but I'll never stop I'll still fight.
Viet Kieu style, representin for my Anh Em
New game plan cus we gonna make a change man
My people lost and only God can save them
So Lord, guide my generation, Amen!
We stay blessed I thank you Lord each time I'm prayin
You made my circle smaller and you took away my fake friends
It's time we rise as one, I know that we gon make it
2 of the illest Viet Kieus WE DO IT FOR OUR NATION!
