【81】A song for the former richest man, the ordinary road
After hearing the story of the homeless man, the song "The Ordinary Road" by Pu Shu quickly appeared in Li Bu's mind.
The song "The Ordinary Road" fits the story of the homeless man very well.
Because the protagonist in the song is just like him, he once reached the top level of society, and then fell from the altar because of his own mistakes.
In addition, in his previous life, Li Bu, who thought he was a top-level figure, loved this song very much. Not only could he sing it, but he also sang it very well, so well that he could directly sing with Pu Shu.
However, although Li Bu was already very familiar with this song, he had already started singing it.
But at this time, he was a little unable to sing, because he had not recorded the song, or even finished the soundtrack of the song.
Of course, if he wants to sing, there is no way out, because the way is very simple. The way is the guitar that the homeless man is carrying, a very expensive, but very brand-new guitar.
After deciding on this method, Li Bu, who had been quiet for a long time, walked directly to the homeless man, pointed at his guitar and asked with a smile: "Well, since this is a new song, I need to borrow it from you.
Can I use my guitar?"
"Of course, because I bought this guitar for you!!
I see that whether you are at the farmer's market or in a live broadcast room, you are always singing with music on your mobile phone.
Although the songs soundtracked by mobile phones are still very good, I always feel that they lack some soul..." The homeless man who was originally planning to use this guitar in exchange for a song of his own, heard Li Bu
After saying this, he immediately took off his guitar and handed it to Li Bu with a very solemn look.
After lovingly reaching out to take the tramp's guitar, Li Bu first tried the tone, then walked back to his seat, sat on his van with the guitar in his arms, and said in a faint voice: "Everyone's life
, will experience many successes and many failures.
Some people succeed first and then fail, and some people fail and then succeed.
For example, some people successfully proposed marriage, but after a few months or years, they got divorced. This is his first success and then failure.
Another example is that some people start a business and fail all the time, but when they do business for the last time, they succeed and make a fortune. This is because they failed first and then succeeded.
As for the former richest man in Beijing, the man before us experienced success first and then failure in his life.
But even though it shouldn't be, what I still want to tell him is that life is not just about the present, but there is actually a bright future.
You were brilliant in the past. Even if you fall down today, you will not stand up again. I believe you will stand up again, and many people believe like me that you will still stand up.
Stand up again.
Now a song called The Ordinary Road is dedicated to this big brother and to everyone.
Please all friends who hear this song, if you are very tired at this time, stop and take a rest, look at the mountains and the sea. After you have rested, we will continue on the road. You and I are all ordinary...
..”
After a bowl of chicken soup for the soul, Li Bu started playing the guitar and singing in a slightly hoarse voice; "
Wandering, on the road,
Are you leaving via via,
Fragile and proud,
That was also what I looked like
As soon as Li Bu opened his mouth, the tramp was stunned. Listening to the song, he seemed to see himself in his former high-spirited self, the business tycoon who had thousands of people following him with a wave of his hand and tens of billions of investments with a wave of his hand.
But then he dimmed again, looked at Li Bu in shock and said to himself; ...Yes, the past self was fragile and proud, but after all, it was just the past self.
There is no chance for me to go back to the way I was in the past."
boiling, restless
where are you going via via
enigmatic, silent
Are you really listening to the story?
After hearing this paragraph, the homeless man seemed to see himself when he was wandering after failure: "Yes, after the failure of the career, wasn't it that I was boiling and restless at that time?
And when I was carrying my backpack alone, I really didn’t know where I was going, and then I just walked around in a daze, as if I was lost in the world and became silent."
"Did anyone really listen to my story before today? Maybe if I hadn't interrupted Brother Lizhi's speech at that time today and asked him to use his own story to write a song, maybe no one would have talked about it anymore.
Tell your own legendary story."
I have crossed mountains and seas
Also passed through the sea of people
everything i ever had
In the blink of an eye, everything disperses like smoke
I've been disappointed
lose all direction
Until I see the ordinary
is the only answer
Hearing this paragraph, the homeless man burst into tears: "Yes, since the failure, haven't I just crossed mountains and seas, and also crossed mountains and seas of people?
But what's the use? After failure, I am no longer myself. At that time, I am just an ordinary person, a useless person who has lost everything."
"Is the only answer until you see the ordinary?
Is ordinaryness really the only answer? Maybe, after all, now I just want to go home and be an ordinary person."
when you are still fantasizing
your tomorrow via via
Will she be better or worse?
It's another day for me
"When I was still imagining, my tomorrow was really like what you thought, I kept going via via.
But will this be good for her at home? Will her life be better or worse after I run away from home? But to me it is just another day. Yes, to me it is just another day.
It’s just one day.”
I've ruined everything
Just want to leave forever
I once fell into boundless darkness
Want to struggle and be unable to extricate myself
I used to be like you and him
Like the wild grass and wild flowers
Desperate and longing
I cry and laugh in an ordinary way
"You finally wrote me out frankly.
Yes, I once destroyed everything I had and just wanted to leave forever. In the past five years, I have also fallen into the endless river bank, trying to struggle but unable to get out.
I also try to live like you, like him, even like a wild flower.
At the same time, in the past five years, I have spent every day in despair and longing. During this period, I also laughed and cried, just like you, me, and him."
And just when the homeless man's heart was churning and tears streaming down his face.
Li Bu suddenly stopped playing the guitar and shouted loudly in the local dialect: "Go forward like this, no matter what has been given to you, just go forward like this, no matter what has been taken away from you, just go forward."
Just go like this, even if you will miss something, just go forward, even if you will..."
After roaring, Li Bu picked up the guitar again and started playing while continuing to sing in a hoarse voice and with great emotion: "I once crossed the mountains and the sea.
Also passed through the sea of people
I once asked the whole world
never got an answer
I'm just like you and him
Like the wild grass and wild flowers
Somehow this is me
The only way to go
Time is silent like this
Tomorrow is already hia hia
The road blown by the wind is still far away
Where does your story go..."
After listening to Li Bu's ordinary road, the homeless man felt that his life had been written.
And he is 100% sure that he is the soul in this song, and just like what is written in the lyrics, he once had everything and then lost everything.
After losing everything, I immediately became confused and depressed for five years. I also used these five years to travel to many mountains and beautiful scenery in my motherland. It was not until I saw a video of my son recently that I realized that being ordinary is actually the best thing.
It is truly your own.
At this time, I should be back to ordinary life. I should be like those retired people, spending time with my wife and children at home. When I get older in a few years, I can take my grandchildren or granddaughters to the park.
