Zi - Travel Light lyrics

[Verse 1: Zi] Life is a trip I suggest you travel light 'Cause life is very far from Eric Wright Took off your picture from the wall that I stare at night But you still got a place in my heart I'll be there tonight See I sacrificed my wife for a better life It's like we gotta go through hell to see what Heaven's like We all wanna make it but who can bear the price The frustration made us arrogant and now we're yelling that we're hella nice What's up homie we're together right Messing with my trust let 'em once but won't let 'em twice It's not an option man you have to fight A place where we own our homes and have no debt that's the working cla** paradise 'Cause if the world is a cake we get the crumbs Not even half a slice I gotta do some overtime just to fix my headlights And stupid things we fantasize about like hopping on the next flight [Chorus: Zi] We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason [Verse 2: Zi] Those who give the most are the ones who have the least I'm sad about the lack of compa**ion I see But keep your head up there's no straight path to a dream No money no crib so we s** in the pa**enger seat We ain't rich but we're alive and happy to be We joke about each other laugh about it for weeks Some are rapping trying to make a living smashing these beats Others went to jail couldn't find a job so they're back on the street And some can predict what the next fashion will be While others struggled but they finally have a degree See it's a constant battle see we travel Between our dreams and reality That's why it's so easy to sell these kind of magazines But chicks need to quit counting calories and build a stronger personality And kids need to quit trying to make a quick buck and get a smarter strategy [Chorus: Zi] We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason [Verse 3: Zi] Is God absent? 'Cause He's not always easy to believe in I keep telling myself that everything happens for a reason And I ain't chasing paper for status I'm chasing paper for freedom To tell my girl baby start packing 'cause we're leaving See I ain't trying to cop a new bling Just wanna Get out the house and do some new things Have a full bank account for more than 2 weeks And just allow myself to buy a few jeans Allow myself to have a few dreams 'Cause empty pockets make it hard to escape the routine They read a few a books then act like they know it all I talk about life real sh** with an open heart sh** I got nothing to lose I'm just too low to fall Yo I do what I got to do with no hope involved And if life is a show call me Rosa Parks I'm fighting for the front row f** the law [Chorus: Zi] We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason We live in small apartments but we dream big Hustle all week just to blow it on the weekend Keep my chest out keep believing 'Cause everything happens for a reason a reason, a reason
