The story

About this song

Fifteen years fit inside one cardboard box. He couldn't tell his family, so every morning he still got dressed for a job he didn't have.

ក្រោកឡើងវិញ (Get Back Up) is a cinematic Khmer trap-soul song about a dad who loses his job, fights the voice in his head telling him to quit, and finds his way back the night he finally tells his wife the truth.

Dedicated to every Khmer dad who sat in the car a little longer before walking in the door.

Lyrics

"I'm sorry... we're going to have to let you go." Fifteen years, they fit inside a cardboard box Sat there for an hour in the parking lot Couldn't tell my wife, couldn't tell the kids So every morning I got dressed like I still did Kissed 'em at the door, said "have a good day" Then sat in that car till the light went away ខ្ញុំខ្មាស់ណាស់, a man's supposed to provide Smiling at the dinner table with a war inside Every door that closed, every call that never came Every night I lie awake and whisper the same ក្រោកឡើងវិញ, get back up again Knocked down nine times, gonna rise up ten ក្រោកឡើងវិញ, I know it hurts right now But I'm getting up somehow Rock bottom got a basement, and I found the floor Final notice on the table, landlord at the door Looked into the mirror, didn't know the man (ឈប់ទៅ ឯងធ្វើមិនកើតទេ) Shut up, I'm trying, I'm doing what I can (Look at you... your kids deserve better) Then I'll BE better... មិនចុះចាញ់ទេ, not today ក្រោកឡើងវិញ, get back up again Knocked down nine times, gonna rise up ten ក្រោកឡើងវិញ, I know it hurts right now But I'm getting up somehow Finally told her everything, hands shaking, couldn't breathe Thought she'd pack her bags, thought she'd up and leave អត់អីទេបង... បងមិនមែនម្នាក់ឯងទេ យើងរកផ្លូវជាមួយគ្នា She never married the paycheck, she married me I forgot who that was till she reminded me ក្រោកឡើងវិញ (get back up again) Knocked down nine times, gonna rise up ten ក្រោកឡើងវិញ, starting from the ground Watch me get up now New job, night shift, coffee and no sleep Kids still think I'm a hero, and that one I'll keep I'm not okay yet... but I will be ក្រោកឡើងវិញ... KHMER LINES IN ENGLISH ក្រោកឡើងវិញ: Get back up again ខ្ញុំខ្មាស់ណាស់: I'm so ashamed ឈប់ទៅ ឯងធ្វើមិនកើតទេ: Just quit, you can't do it មិនចុះចាញ់ទេ: I won't give up អត់អីទេបង... បងមិនមែនម្នាក់ឯងទេ, យើងរកផ្លូវជាមួយគ្នា: It's okay, honey... you're not alone. We'll find a way together. Music created with AI tools. Concept, lyrics, and story by Somleng Studio.
