i'm still here - katherine ho lyrics
i am a child of immigrants who upended their lives
left it all behind, to bet on the unknown
my parents told me stories
they were 22 and broke
six thousand miles from home in a foreign land alone
pennies in their pockets
failure wasn’t an option
turn that rusted copper into gold
i was born in perfect circumstances
have success in my genetics
why i’m still such a mess?
well, i don’t know
sometimes i wanna scream so desperately
but i don’t desеrve to cry
the universе, it gave me everything
perfect family, perfect life
my mom is curing cancer
my dad’s an engineer
my friends are moving out an doing well in their careers
and i feel like such a criminal, crying all these tears
i had every head start in the world, but i’m still here
i’m thankful for my privilege and my parents’ sacrifice
but i have this guilt inside
that i will never measure up
i was born in perfect circumstances
have success in my genetics
why i’m still such a mess?
well, i don’t know
sometimes i wanna scream so desperately
but i don’t deserve to cry
the universe, it gave me everything
perfect family, perfect life
my mom is curing cancer
my dad’s an engineer
my friends are moving out and doing well in their careers
and i feel like such a criminal, crying all these tears
i had every head start in the world, but i’m still here
oh woah
oh woah
and my family swears that i make them proud
and messing up and making mistakes is more than allowed
they tell me to not to be so hard on myself
and i deserve the love that i give to everyone else
sometimes i wanna scream so desperately
but i don’t deserve to cry
the universe, it gave me everything
perfect family, perfect life
my mom is curing cancer
my dad’s an engineer
my friends are moving out and doing well in their careers
and i feel like such a criminal, crying all these tears
i had every head start in the world, but i’m still here
oh woah
