Word to the Hyphen [Happy Cleaners OST] Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lyricks]
This feeling I’m sure you know
My parents are growing old
I told my dad before you go
한번은 보여줘야 저

He wanted a pastor, doctor, maybe a lawyer too
I told him I’m a rapper, and he cried inside his boiler room
He told me never forget what I been told ya
When you on a roll you pick up more dirt like a lint roller

I trusted in your vision since the very start
It just a parent’s heart don’t bend easy like heavy starch
They made the move to the states, changed how they maneuver
My father's hands and brain decayed 'cause of stain remover
So when I rap, it's deeper than money and double taps
I wanna show my dad where my love was at
This is facts

Reposition my life and treat him a little
My mission became the hyphen so I could meet in the middle
I had to change the narrative, the truce became imperative
Step inside the shoes of a cleaners Korean-American

[Hook]
Word to the hyphen
Word to the hyphen
Word to the hyphen in my name

[Verse 2: JL]
Word to the hyphen in the words that they type in
To describe us in the title of their write ups
Asian-American, first generation born in the states
Parents made their escape so we could be born to be great

From a war torn country to a country full of dreams
In a place they never seen wit' a language they couldn’t speak
Left a position of pulling strings to putting things to the side
Simply so their kids could get by

And passing on traditions that their kids could live by
And it's up to them whether traditions live or they die
And they could've had ambitions bigger than mine
But they put it all behind and put it all on the line

Asians in media seemed to be running in place
But lately I'm seein' our dreams is coming to shape
And it's up to me to believe that it wasn’t a waste
And in time they can retire in a comfortable place

[Hook]
Word to the hyphen
Word to the hyphen
Word to the hyphen in my name

[Verse 3: Lyricks]
As you get older you’ll understand, man I guarantee this
I couldn’t see this, I got angry when my parents beat us
And then I went over to Terrence’, his parents the sweetest
And my parents still at the cleaners, they weren’t there to feed us

And as a young child that just meant bad ratings
That's how the trial and error era for us translated
And due to distance the communication drowned slowly
Over time the kind words turned to 잔소리

And this is our story, couldn’t decide for me
But I’m not living wondering "yo man if I only"
I’m gonna make it here 'cause my mama deserve it
She tried to make my life perfect with some laundry detergent
