Expectations Lyrics

[Chorus]

I climbed up from the bottom to the top
But I still gotta prove that I’m awesome to my mom
Cause I live with
All these Asian expectations
Gotta live with all these Asian expectations
Ooh yeah

[Verse 1: LEX the Lexicon Artist]

Yeah my mom’s amazing
You might’ve guessed but my mom is Asian
I only see her when I’m on vacation
Or when she gets to take a break on occasion

She’s a children’s doctor working all day
It’s not a lot of money but we do okay
Despite being tired, she greets patients with
Smile on her face
Saying how are you today
Yeah

Always worried that I might ashame her
Cause I chose to be a psych major
She wants me to go back to school
Cause she says I’m book smart like Hermione Granger

But now I’m tryna be a rap star
And I don’t know if she would let me take it that far
Do I play my part or entertain the crowd
Because I wanna chase my dream but I wanna make her proud

[Chorus]

I climbed up from the bottom to the top
But I still gotta prove that I’m awesome to my mom
Cause I live with
All these Asian expectations
Gotta live with all these Asian expectations
Ooh yeah

[Verse 2: Shubzilla]

The OG Fly Pinay
Mom to me be like do or die
Three times a hustle to keep us afloat
Hardest woman in the game and she ain’t gotta gloat, uh

Her ambition passed on to me
Hot-headed boss raising me to be a queen
And the world wasn’t ready but she did it anyway
Momzilla raining fire every hour every day

She expects a lot more from me
Pride success and happiness
The best hype woman there could ever be
If she gotta fix shit better write a eulogy

Cause somebody’s gonna get dropped if they don’t stop
Messing with their kin so they better close shop
From 1983
We been a dope team and we livin’ the dream

[Chorus]

I climbed up from the bottom to the top
But I still gotta prove that I’m awesome to my mom
Cause I live with
All these Asian expectations
Gotta live with all these Asian expectations
Ooh yeah

[Verse 3: LEX the Lexicon Artist]

I don't get to see you very often anymore
And pretty soon I'll no longer be twenty four
You’ll prolly never see me live, you’re so far away
But at least I can write you songs for mothers day

It’s been six years, still kinda new here
Can I come home just for Chinese New Year
I know you're gonna tell me to apply for law school
But I promise that my songs got a lot more thoughtful

You always told me I should be more gentle
More femininely temperamental
But when I tell you that I miss Taipei
You always say to not be so sentimental

I wanna be a great artist and a good daughter
When I’m famous maybe I could be a book author
庭安, she remembers what you taught her
Sending love to my mother and father, I’ll bring them both honor

[Outro]
All these Asian expectations...
