【Synthesizer V Solaria】 Asian Parent Stories II [original song]
Channel: Anomie Train
Date: 2022-01-19

Woo hoo, they sent out the download link for the Synthesizer V Solaria pre-orders early! So, of course, I just had to drop her in an existing song just to hear how she sings it.

Asian Parent Stories II was a song I wrote in 2019 based on various posts on the Asian Parent Stories subreddit. I originally had Vocaloid 5 Amy sing it.

Solaria is singing this with Koharu Rikka and Eleanor Forte backing her up.

The thing that really amazes me is how Solaria has all these little nuances that a real singer would do--which makes sense since she is modeled after a professional singer.

FAWM 2022 is coming up and I'm going to use Solaria for all the demos.

Lyrics

Verse 1

I'm up to my neck in student loan debt
and I don't know how to dig myself out
I'm still living in my parents' home
paying for a house my momma bought

Now my poppa's telling me that he wants a new car
and I should buy him a brand new mercedes benz
It's pretty clear that my parents think
of their daughter as some goddamn ATM

Chorus

I'm only twenty two but my hands feel tied
I just want to have a chance to live my own life
I want to travel the world in search of that special guy

Verse 2

I've got an app on my phone
so my parents can track me wherever I go, they wanna know
I can't go out, gotta stay at home and listen to my parents tell me how useless I am

I'm beginning to think that my only course
is to pack up my things and walk out that door
This isn't what I want, I'm at the end of the line
I'm tired of living a life that's not mine

Chorus

I'm only twenty two but my hands feel tied
I just want to have a chance to live my own life
I want to travel the world in search of that special guy

Bridge

My momma loves to tell me how much I owe them
And just how much they've sacrificed and suffered all their lives
If it weren't for them, I'd have no bed
no clothes, no phone
'Cause I'm just a stupid child who couldn't
survive on her own 

Chorus x 3
