♪ la la la la la la ♪ ♪ jump on the premoi ♪ ♪ la la la la la ♪ >> so i want today share with you guys a little bit about my family, and sort of plight of the cambodian people. for those who are not familiar with the history of cambodian americans and how we first emigrated here to the states in 1975, to 1979, tlfls a genocide that took place in cambodia which resulted in the lives of 2 million lives.

most of them were artist, diplomats or aristocrat or anybody intellectual. they want today do a cleansing and raise a new society. so many of us looked for another. after the genocide. began most commonly in the 80s, my family arrived in 1981, while america gave us a lot of hope and a new life, it also presented a lot of challenges for culturation and i think for cambodia refugees struggling with the dark history, we see ptsd and trauma and and it inspired the this next song called "belief"

♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it ♪ ♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it ♪ ♪ you were day and night striving striving in this new land to make a good life ♪ ♪ boy and girl struggling through ♪ the flat land below the city life ♪ ♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it through, you survived, you made it here alive ♪ dry those eyes, you're going to make it.

♪ believe in you ♪ ♪ believe in you ♪ la la la ♪ ♪ di tara ♪ ♪ when daddy is home and kids are asleep everyone feels alone ♪ words spoken gets lost in translation, he feels the distance further further between them ♪ ♪ he wants to go back ♪ back to the mother land ♪ ♪ when he had a man, he had a plan ♪ oh the good ol' days

before the war ♪♪ ♪ where there was everything to live for ♪ oh don't you cry ♪ ♪ you are going to make it through, you survived, you made it here alive ♪ ♪ dry those eyes, you're going to make it ♪ ♪ believe in you ♪ believe in you ♪ ♪ believe in you ♪ ♪ believe in you ♪ ♪ la la didara ♪ ditara ♪

♪ la di tara ♪ ♪ believe in you ♪ >> so this last song that i'm going to perform for you guys is one of my one of my personal favorite. it was the love theme for the documentary about dr. hung us nau, he was a supporting actor in the 1985 film, the killing fields which was the story

about what took place in cambodian and he was the first asian of cambodian american that won the oscars for his role. when i look at his life, was a actor and also a human rights activist, and a lot of us here, especially like me, born in cambodian but spent most of my life here, i always felt that i had that duty and always awareness about what took place in cambodian. so i want to share the stories through my music, i want people to know what happens and i think while my parents's generation, they struggled about sharing their stories and what they witnessed, what they went through, it's pretty important to remember because by remembering is how we can honor all those that we lost in

the genocide but also pray that history does not company itself. this one is about coming out of the darkness and finding that, you know, the light after the dawn. it's called "like a rose." ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ i ain't going to run ♪ ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ oh listen to the morning song ♪ oh listen ♪ to the whispers and

our voices and singing of love ♪ ♪ singing our story ♪ ♪ i think you're sweet like rose ♪ ♪ calm like the ocean ♪ ♪ who knows ♪ ♪ i think you're soft like the sand ♪ sand in between♪ you, you ♪ ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ and i am afraid of who i am ♪

i promise you i will always tell the truth ♪ ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ and i'm afraid of who i am ♪ ♪ i promise you, i won't run ♪ ♪ [singing in native language]
