lyrics

VERSE 1 (JASON CHU)
Kintsugi, had to go broke to get my gold medal
I'm not special, God just outworks the devil
Test mettle, the bezel is steel
I'm still standin, air cushion my heel
Still rappin, afternoon cat nappin, multiple plane landins then I go out to tell tales
Talk story, got bops for top 40, that glory is still not mine but I'm chill
I'm built
by the blood and will that got spilled
Sis sit in Yuji Ichioka office, that's real
What move needles don't raise pule
Came on boat, so my people don't wave hop
Strange plots, I believe about half of them
I know what I love, I don't need a fUckin algorithm
I'm still standin - and all of my mans and em
Fruit from the trees, don't forget the ones that planted em

CHORUS (ANN ONE)
All of my scars
Carry gold
Just get stronger through each storm
Mmmhm
I am so beautiful
We are so beautiful

VERSE 2 (JASON CHU)
Generations
Incarcerated
Kelly Lytle Hernandez taught me about our situation
Black bodies, Latinos, Asians and natives
Swapped in and out the system like replacements
Redeye flights, I'm just workin a late shift
Flyin to a city, but it's not for no vacation
Visitin a college but not for matriculation
If it ain't for liberation, I don't consider that an education
Job creation? Our whole lives a background check
Work hard but you still can't buy respect
Dr. Wen Ho Lee, 9 months solitary then release
Government apology don't iron out the crease
White author said to learn some patience
Hard when I see our elders turnin into patients
New cars, Goyards, Asians "crazy rich"?
Green cards, peace marches, it's a crazy mix

CHORUS
