The Light Falls on Your Face

Hello, welcome back! It has been a long time.

How's your day? was it good?

This is another random thing that I want to share with you. Let me introduce you someone I admire lately. A young poetic rapper. Chase Lee. That's his name. 

Why do I admire him? you'll know.

Here is the translated lyric of a song, sang by Chen Li. The title is "Light". Some of the lyrics, for rap, composed by Chase Lee.


The light falls on your face

Cute as usual

Your inch by inch

Fill your desires

The city is a little dirty

Passers-by are in hurry

Lonely, fragile, and uneasy

All  normal


I sank into the water low

I stood on the tall building

I meet all your unreasonable demands

I'm numb

Not trying to sleep late

Curl up in a quilt

Study hard, I'm afraid to go to that school

Why am I so annoying?

Boring people always like to make fun of me

No matter how loud they are, it seems that they can't hear all of them

They don't understand

All of them have no heart at all

A person's face roars in my mind

Harsh laughter mingled with their threatening warnings

Bad nicknames and aisles you never dare to go to

There is no light in the little black house surrounded by fear


Happiness, shortcomings, courage

Romantic shortcomings poetry

Silence, sentence by sentence

It's all puzzles

Everyone is awake and independent

There is no trace of delusion

We choked slowy without saying a word


You bow your head and don't say a word 

You walk towards gray

You live in the deep sea of chaos, and you start to have no hope of waiting


The cold words hurt my heart like a knife

Red ink broke into the blood of my body

My throat was covered with glue and made me lose my voice

I'm about to choke on water, so I can't breathe

He suddenly peeled off from my body

Over my head, he stared at me from above

He held out his left hand and clasped my fingers

Take me away from this dark and cold corner

I looked up and saw the sun rising in the clouds

My beautiful youth is still very long

Dancing underwater, I was bathed in the penetrating light

Gently rippling slowly on the water

The blossoming sea of flowers is covered with long bees

Looking back at the deer in the forest is interiaced with my eyes

The wind that washed the dirt in all the corners

Arriving at the dream place and stroking me with catnap


The light falls on your face


Let's talk about this Chase Lee. He has a story that is almost the same as my little story.

Long story short,  he was walking to the front building of his school. Then, some strangers called him out and asked him for money harshly. At that moment, he was so scared that he could not make his voice out.

So, When he was in elementary school, he was being a victim of school bullying (violence). He was still too young to face a situation like that. But, his ability to express the emotion through songs is amazing. The moment he stepped out of the door to face the media and chase his dreams, I immediately fall for him. 

For the one who is struggling with a problem like this, you have to know that you are amazing, more than you think. You can certainly face this all. You will find your light, and that light will replace your darkness. Please always have hope.


And maybe from now on, I will also post some of the translation of Chase Lee's rap lyrics here. ^^


Thank you for reading this random thing ✌
