Song titled: Brother
Together we will chiong
On and on and on
Till the break of dawn
Through all the times we had
Whether they be good or bad
We have stood together as comrades
Day in day out training under the sun
From all walks of life
We have bonded as one
These memories I’ll hold forever
We’re not just buddies
We are a band of brothers
Now as a boy in Singapore, we have done our thing
After finishing, wonder what the future will bring
Will we still be close after time passes by
Or is this really the time when we say goodbye
Nobody really knows but as time goes
We all realise what matters is that
We were bros at one point in time
We were all we had
Sharing everything from soap to bread
Some of us will go to SCS (Specialist Cadet School)
And some of us will go to OCS (Officer Cadet School)
But you know it really doesn’t matter who’s the best
Cause at the end of the day we represent the same crest
I confess no less this is one of life’s tests
Braving through the rain while we serve NS
And what we gain are moments that will flash as
memories
That reminds us of when we were soldiers when we feel the breeze
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
Two years of our time can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong when I sing this song
Cause this is truly where I belong
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
Two years of our time can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong we will miss Tekong
That’s why we are marching singing this song
And whoever would have thought we would be this close
I know the memories and good times we will miss the most
Went to strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
Kena confine in camp together doing guard duty
And we know it’s our duty but it feels so sian
When 我不能book out 看我girlfriend 的脸
Tapi gua understand I am not the only one
Who has to go through training that is hardly fun
I got my brothers from different races and religions
And we have stood together as one, to serve our nation
All we really need is just a little patience
Two years will pass by like poetry in motion
Emotions, training in the wild wild jungle
United we stand, divided we crumble
I know, we will miss this, when it’s gone
And reminisce about the times we had in Pulau Tekong
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
Two years of our time can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong when I sing this song
Cause this is truly where I belong
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
From ah boys to men can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong we will miss Tekong
That’s why we are marching singing this song
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
Two years of our time can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong when I sing this song
Cause this is truly where I belong
From strangers to friends to brothers from buddies
From ah boys to men can’t wait to ORD
But don’t get me wrong we will miss Tekong
That’s why we are marching singing this song
We will forever be singing this song
Cause this is where I’m from
And no matter when the memories fade away
I will always remember
And keep you guys in my heart
Because without you guys
I will never be who I am today
A 20th Jack Neo production. All new experience. I really like this movie a lot and I can relate so much although I've never join NS but the experiences were so similar to my scouting years. I would love so much to write a detailed post on it but time doesn't allow me too.
Quoting it's really a movie close to life and not just about NS and military. You laugh and you cry and you go through life. This is a little something i wrote inspired form the original lyrics and some from my own experience. Sometimes in life, memories are the only thing you get to bring along.
Please support the movie cause its just too awesome for an asian movie, especially Singaporean. All the actors are newbies as well but under the well leadership of a great director Jack Neo whom I admire a lot and would hope to have a chance to learn from or work with someday. Support support support Ah Boys To Men 1 & 2. Part 3 is rumored to be released at the end of the year.
