Turning the Tide 破浪 - Theme Song for "China's Stealth Invasion"《偷袭美国》

中文歌词如下。 “Turning the Tide” was written as the theme song for the documentary China’s Stealth Invasion, a host-led investigative film about the Chinese regime’s infiltration of the United States across multiple fronts.

When writing the lyrics, I drew inspiration from several quotes by the interviewees featured in the film. I was also inspired by the host’s personal story: being born in China, coming to the West, and realizing that the freedom many of us take for granted is now under threat.

英文和中文歌词:

Turning the Tide
破浪

The threat we face is like no other
We need to wake up
It concerns everybody
Before we lose our hope and liberty
It’s time we take it back
It’s up to you and me

我们面临的威胁前所未有
我们需要觉醒
这与每个人息息相关
在我们失去希望与自由之前
是时候贏回它了
这取决于你和我

Turning the Tide
A beacon of Light
Save America
We cross the night
As our missions align
Save America

破浪前行
光明的灯塔
拯救美国
我们穿越黑夜
当我们的使命交汇
拯救美国

When you fear the truth you’ll fight with lies
They wrap the world in friendly ties
But every gift demands a price
What we do next decides if our freedom survives
Is our nation asleep, with an enemy inside?

懼怕真相者，與謊言爲伍.
他们用友善的纽带将世界缠绕
但每一份馈赠都有其代价
我们接下来的行动决定自由能否存续
我们的国家是否已经沉睡，內有敌人潜伏？

Turning the Tide
A beacon of Light
Save America
We cross the night
As our missions align
Save America

破浪前行
光明的灯塔
拯救美国
我们穿越黑夜
当我们的使命交汇
拯救美国

I grew up in China
Where the state controlled
What I said or what I feared
And my dreams dissolved
A place where you could vanish overnight
I left that behind
Or so I thought…

我在中国长大
那里由政权掌控
我所说的，我所畏惧的
我的梦想也随之消散
在那个地方，你可能一夜之间消失
我把那一切抛在身后
或者我以为是这样……

Turning the Tide
A beacon of Light
Save America
The truth will shine
As our hearts align
Save America,
Save the World

破浪前行
光明的灯塔
拯救美国
真相将会闪耀
当我们心意相連
拯救美国，
拯救世界
