Paradigm

Paradigm (典范) - Ani Difranco (安妮·迪弗兰科)[00:00:00]

I was born to two immigrants[00:00:38]

Who knew why they were here[00:00:41]

They were happy to pay taxes[00:00:46]

For the schools and roads[00:00:48]

Happy to be here[00:00:50]

They took it seriously[00:00:54]

The second job of citizenry[00:00:58]

My mother went campaigning door to door[00:01:02]

And holding to her hand was me[00:01:06]

I was just a girl in a room full of women[00:01:10]

Licking stamps and laughing[00:01:14]

I remember the feeling of community brewing[00:01:18]

Of democracy happening[00:01:22]

But I suppose like anybody[00:01:26]

I had to teach myself to see[00:01:48]

All that stuff that got lost[00:01:52]

On its way to church[00:01:54]

All that stuff that got lost[00:01:56]

On its way to school[00:01:58]

All that stuff that got lost[00:02:00]

On its way to the house of my family[00:02:03]

All that stuff that was not lost on me[00:02:06]

Teach myself to see each of us[00:02:12]

Through the lens of forgiveness[00:02:15]

Like we're stuck with each other (god forbid )[00:02:16]

Teach myself to smile and stop and talk[00:02:21]

To a whole other color kid[00:02:24]

Teach myself to be new in an instant[00:02:29]

Like the truth is accessible at any time[00:02:32]

Teach myself it's never really one or the other[00:02:36]

There's a paradox in every paradigm[00:02:41]

I was just a girl in a room full of women[00:03:18]

Licking stamps and laughing[00:03:22]

I remember the feeling of community brewing[00:03:26]

Of democracy happening[00:03:30]
