a song i wrote a year ago, dedicated to my parents. As intellectuals, they joined the Unification Movement in Taiwan in the early 70s, at a time when it was extremely unpopular to do so. My soul searching and quest to find out why they joined led me to the likewise enlightenment that they had encountered. here are the lyrics: 各位大家,小朋友 我們來代表台灣統一教會 顧澄,陳美滿,顧天勝 1970 something was when May Mahn Chen studying philosophy at the university National Taiwan, the Harvard of Taiwan life would be changed forever from then on from a duck to swan, her spirit self shone on get her masters degree, lecturer of the highest pedigree then working on to get her PhD til she was called, hey move into the center quit your day job this life is even better so she did, no joke. The papers took note "Esteemed faculty, part of a bad cult!" see, back in those days, the church was outlawed the reasoning [for it] was fundamentally flawed but in 1980-something my Ma could praise God TSG was born, lemme hear you applaud [Faith Evans] I remmember back in time, before all the homies died, before all the dollars and nines, i knew that i was goin' somewhere, let me take you back in time, before i even got the rhyme, before i had nickels and dimes, i knew that i was goin' somewhere 我們來好好慶祝,慶祝 二十五年祝福,祝福 When Cherng was 15, playin sports, makin green on the honor roll, made the soccer team he was born again, that's when he entered the Christian scene then in 1970 somethin, at 19 he found Sun Myung but then didn't show up, messed the flow up his Ma said he should grow up, and check hisself before he wreck hisself, disrespect hisself put the DP on the shelf, nah he couldn't see it righteous soldier for God, he wanna be it school was secondary, God was necessary then he went to Berkley, and became legendary delivering all the Taiwanese BCs, starting with my bro and me keepin God's dream alive in the R.O.C. and working hard for the Guh Blessed Family!! [Faith Evans singing on behalf of Mama] I remmember back in time, before all the homies died, before all the dollars and nines, i knew that i was goin' somewhere, let me take you back in time, before i even got the rhyme, before i had nickels and dimes, i knew that i was goin' somewhere
