 My father came from Japan  1905
He was 15 he immigrated from Japan
He worked he was able to buy - to actually build a store

Let me tell you the story in the form a dream,
I don't know why I have to tell it but I know what means,
Close your eyes, picture the scene,
As I paint it for you, it was World War
When this named Kenji woke up,
Ken not a soldier,
He was just a man with a family who owned a store LA,
That day, he crawled out of like he always did,
Bacon and with wife and kids,
He lived on the second of a little store he ran,
He moved LA from Japan,
called him 'Immigrant,'
In he'd say he was called "Issei,"
That meant 'First Generation In The United
When everyone was afraid of the afraid of the Japs,
But most of all afraid of a homeland
And that morning when Ken went out the doormat,
His world went black
Right there; page news,
Three weeks 1942,
Harbour's Been Bombed And The Japs Are Comin'"
Pictures of soldiers dyin' runnin',
knew what it would lead to,
Just he guessed, the President said,
"The evil Japanese in our country will be locked away,"
They gave Ken, couple of days,
To get his whole life in two bags,
Just two bags, couldn't pack his clothes,
Some folks didn't even have a suitcase, pack anything in,
So two trash bags is all gave them,
When the kids asked mom "Where are we
Nobody even knew what to say them,
Ken didn't wanna he said "The US is lookin' for spies,
So we have to live in a place Manzanar,
Where a lot Japanese people are,"
Stop it don't look at the
You don't wanna the soldiers wonderin',
you gonna run or not,
'Cause if you run then might get shot,
Other than that try not to about it,
Try not to worry 'bout bein' so crowded,
Someday we'll out, someday, someday.

soon as war broke out
The came and they just come to the house and
"You to come"
"All the Japanese have go"
They took Lee
People understand
Why did they to take him?
Because he's laborer laborer

So now they're in a with soldiers surroundin' them,
Every day, every look down at them,
From watch towers up on wall,
Ken couldn't really hate at all;
They were just doin' their and,
He wasn't gonna any problems,
He had a garden with vegetables and fruits that,
He gave to the troops in a basket wife made,
But in the back of mind, he wanted his families life saved,
Prisoners of war their own damn country,
What for?
Time passed in the prison
He wanted to live it down when they were free,
The only way out was joinin' the
And supposedly, some went out for the army, signed on,
And ended up flyin' to Japan with bomb,
That 15 kilotonne blast, put an end to the war fast,
Two cities blown to bits; the end of the war came quick,
Ken got out, big hopes of a normal life, with his kids and his
But, when got back to their home,
What saw made them feel so alone,
These people had every room,
Smashed in the and bashed in the doors,
Written on the walls and floor,
"Japs welcome anymore."
Kenji dropped both of his bags at his sides and just stood outside,
He, at his wife without words to say,
looked back at him wiping tears away,
And, "Someday we'll be okay, someday,"
Now the names have been changed, but story's true,
My family was up back in '42,
My family was there it was dark and
And they called it an camp

When we first got back from camp...
It was... pretty... bad

I remember my husband said
we gonna stay 'til last?"
Then my husband died before they close the
