Lyrics of Shao Yibei's "we"

A narrow alley by a wide road

We live and look up at the splendor in the distance

The sadness of reality in the humble room

Honey coated with fantasy

We try to believe in the imagination of a better future

It's a scene of prosperity in the age of peace

We create and bear the impact of development

The weight is on the shoulders

It's hard to see clearly ahead

We can only try to repair the incomplete status quo

We've been waiting

We try to be strong

We hone our inner broadness in patience

We want to be loved

We take care of hope

We believe that this era will be sincerely improved

In the shaking bus filled with empty heart

We always follow the rush of life

Create too much prosperity

Never had a chance to appreciate it

We are still looking for happiness

Watching excitedly and anxiously in front of the flashing screen

We are helpless but eager to give strength to others

Ordinary and extraordinary wish

Silent but especially loud

We've been delivering warm fire

We've been waiting

We try to be strong

We hone our inner broadness in patience

We want to be loved

We take care of hope

We believe that this era will be sincerely improved

We set sail with a smile in frustration
