[Hook - Nah]
Still we striving for a better life, for a greater time
Come take a ride with me

[Verse 1 - Nah]
I got a lot to say, since the day that I walked away
Still the same Vietnamese emcee with an accent that a lot would hate
Now my flight better not delay, almost home just a block away
Still the street ain't safe to play, still fuck the popo like I'm Dr.Dre
And I still ride on my motorbike, nhau all the night, there's more to life
Memories stay on my mind, it's a cold world, but it's hot today
Got rap credibility but I'm not the king cuz I got the ace
I just wanna chill for real, but there're so many problems we gotta face
It's the truth that we ought to say but we would get shot or get locked away
No surprise that inflation is on the rise so it'd be more bribe that we gotta pay
Enemies out there in the sea where our fishers get robbed so we gotta pray
It's the matter of unity or die so I suggest that we stop the hate
Va tui may cung da thay roi day, doan ket la suc manh cua hang bao doi nay
Vay tai sao cu suot ngay chat chan chat tay, dam chem giet nguoi roi con dot nha chay
Tao chi muon ko thu ko ghet, muon tat ca chung ta cung ngoi lai day
Chung ta cung la nguoi viet, mau do da vang
Vay hay cung lam gi do de tao ra su doi thay

[Hook - Nah]
Still we striving for a better life, for a greater time
Come take a ride with me
Music is what I put my life on
Saigon city play my song

[Verse 2 - Mondega]
From Cheo Reo city out to Saigon,
Mondega hold it down with the Mic On
To America, we ain't hard to fine
Trying to rise up to the greater times
My state my mind, same as Nah
Vietnamese, Montagnard, we are one of a kind
LA, NY, ...we all get love!
From the local club to the broken slums
Let's pour some, Heineken's up
Let's roll one, light it up!
Hiam droi jan mo? To all everybody here partying
We ballin' like spalding john wall in ruff Raleigh,
We just try to have some fun, make a million off some trunks
We can't take back what we've done,
We just keep on living on
To a better destination like a spaceship by the sun
Day and day we pray for raises, that our babies will make it home
But tonight, lets celebrate, Saigon city play my song!

[Hook - Nah]
Still we striving for a better life, for a greater time
Come take a ride with me
Music is what I put my life on
Saigon city play my song

[Verse 3 - MAC]
I open the window let the glow blows in
Emotionally knowing it's the old routine
Who proposed to dispose these snows and
The cold frost in November the 14th?
Floatin like dolphin over the whole scene
Demolish this moment would be so mean
An episode that can't nobody oppose it
So let me know if you posting the opposite
Much troubles so let us hold hand
We people we equal show me romance
Salt Lake to Oakland to San Jo to Portland
Sorrows in dustbin yo hello snowman
My flow scheme's restless but don't get it twisted
I spit em truths and they're cold like Christmas
Take it to the crowd, here and now
Fill your cup, put it up, no tears allowed
Before I go on let me kill this stoge
Smoke my cancer like I'm Gorilla Zoe
*Deeply inhale* hold your tension bro
It's not quite time to lock and load
Nah, Mondega holdin it down
Mac kickin in the back, bumpin them sounds
For a greater time's sake, I send mad love
Toi nguoi Viet tren toan trai dat and best luck

[Hook - Nah]
Still we striving for a better life, for a greater time
Come take a ride with me
Music is what I put my life on
Saigon city play my song

I liked da beat on this it's def different I was boppin' my head when it dropped. Nah I got no idea wtf u said @ da end of ur verse but man it sounded krazy sick. I think someone besides u needs 2 be on da hook it's not bad tho I could see a female on it tho. Ur verse was smooth nice work yo. I think ur boy Mondega shined da most on dis track he's nice on da mic so props on givin' em a feature on dis. Mac is good 2 he had a nice flow as well... after listenin' 2 dis twice da hook kinda grew on me so yea keep it nevermind wat I said. Keep droppin' Nah if u could translate wat u said in Vietnamese for us I'd like 2 kno wat u said thank & once again keep droppin'.

[Nah]

ay man I really appreciate the feedback. Mondega and MAC lives in America, their pronunciation is all perfect. I live in Vietnam, hence the accent..

the last part in my verse was basically some motivation shit. here's a rough translation:

"You all seen it, unity is our power through ages
so why committing mayhem, murder, arson?
I just want no hate, let's gather
We are Vietnamese, red blood, yellow skin
So we better do something to make changes"

[Livenlearn]

Actually I really like the chorus, very good in my opinion, it could be sung a lil better, or more effects or panning would make it better, but its str8...The verse was cool, nice energy, the beat was hot too...The second verse came in strong, real nice energy, and fit the chill beat...keeep coming with this good musiq

[Tha Q]

This beat sounds like something you'd hear Wayne Newton sing on...lol

I like your flow on it...sounds good

good creative hook I'd say...

overall, this sounds nice
