A local youth hip-hop group calling themselves “Josey” produced this video titled “7AM” in Chinese about once being young and still loving to dream. The social commentary video was posted on YouTube with this description (translation):$CUT$
In our childhood, we hear grown-ups reminisce over their past
Most of the stories are about either their glorious deeds or the missed opportunities
Now, my friends and I start to talk about things such as, “If we had…, only if…, had I known…“Like a mantra, as if we could have gotten something back from our younger days
Maybe we are trying to recover those distant memories, our reckless feelings
The fearless years, and the immense joy whenever the school dismissal bell rang
This just confirms what we’ve always cared most in our mindsOtherwise we would not mention them so often
Let me wake you up with this song the road we traveled togetherAwaken the child inside the heart of everyone
Together, let us once again believe in the momentRecklessly without the fear of remaining idealistic and embracing the dream
We never really graduated…
