Song Description:

My father once told me that if I'm committed to creating art music that truly represents who I am, I should let go of any expectations about how and when the world might respond. It could take 2 years, 20 years, or even 200 years for them to connect with my work, or they might never do so—and that's okay…

I use this song to explore the transformative capacity of the human spirit, similar to the mystical process of alchemy. Through hardship and suffering, trials and tribulations, we can discover true strength and humility. It's the alchemy of the soul, transforming pain and struggle into wisdom and love.

This song is my signature production and writing style of avant-pop, combining complex emotions with melancholic melodies and a hopeful undertone. It mirrors the duality of human experience—the blend of sadness and joy, loss and discovery. It's an ode to the power of the human heart to overcome, to change, and to find beauty in life's most challenging moments.

Lyrics

爸說我選擇的路很難走，得做好準備這個世界可能要2年， 20年，或200年
My father told me, it might take the world 2 years, 20 years or 200 years for them to understand.
也有可能他們永遠都聽不懂，也無所謂了。

I refuse to breakdown
I hate to turn around
Oh oh oh
When autumn leaves are gone
Where do I belong
Oh oh oh

I’ll turn it into gold
I’ll become the alchemist
And carve my prayer in stone
To get a little higher
So I can see the light, so I can see the light
Surrender to the light
Light…


I have been holding on
Hold it beneath my tongue
Oh oh oh
There’s nothing left undone
I’ve got no needs and wants
Oh oh oh
I asked for all this pain
To be the alchemist
I’ve burnt it all
So my dreams are a little brighter
So I can see the light, so I can see the light
Surrender to the light
Light…

Under the sky I forgive it all
I understand it’s not their fault
I hear the whisper in my ears
It makes my body go crazy
But I know it’s the only way
To be the alchemist
To be the alchemist
and surrender to the light
Surrender to the light
Light…
