About

My family’s first-hand experience brought on a whole different wave of emotions—of anger—and this feeling of “What can we do to help?” But you can only get so angry about things before it becomes completely unproductive. So, why not write something about it? I play in a band. This is the platform I’...

Pursuit of Liberty Lyrics

[Intro]
Can this be America, the home of the free
When for the first time, I feel like a refugee?
Where we sought asylum, we were welcomed in
These days, it's perceived as a sin

[Verse 1]
Do you remember the fall of Saigon?
The city turned red by the Viet Cong
The choices they had were to flee or believe
That's when my family had no choice but to leave
This is the way of the Vietnamese
Where we became the new refugees

[Chorus]
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By raising the fences, we're lowering the bar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty

[Verse 2]
Since when do passports without the right stamps
Send people back to concentration camps?
No sight of future, no guarantees
Yet they still risked it all to save their families
What kind of world do we live in where this is okay?
Borders are baseless, it's one human race

[Chorus]
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By raising the fences, we're lowering the bar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
All of the people still watching their backs
Hiding in fear, covering their tracks
Could this be the start of the Fourth Reich?
This isn't what freedom looks like

[Outro]
By raising the fences, we're lowering the bar
It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By persecuting people just trying to be free
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
We're stopping them from their pursuit of liberty
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
By raising the fences, we're lowering the bar
(Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh)
It seems like we're traveling back to Manzanar

What did Bad Cop/Bad Cop say about "Pursuit of Liberty"?

“Pursuit of Liberty” comes from trying to understand why refugees have to do what they do to seek a second chance. The experiences that my family did have to face have helped mold me into the person that I am today. It’s taught me a lot about what people would put themselves through to get themselve...
