Zi - Blessings [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Zi]
She was half black half white eyes kind of blue grey
He was about to lose his job but fought and got a new raise
Thank God they can finally move in a new place
After 10 years at the 10th floor elevator broken every 2 days
See this is for to the warriors who never lose faith
It’s never too late fuck what you say
Reminiscing Fugees and the Wu days
When I had to be reminded of the toothbrush and the toothpaste
My father wasn’t satisfied with the number 2 place
I guess that’s why I’m determined not to lose man
Plus I got more to talk about
Than my new rims and my new chain
This is for the kids who never packed a suitcase
I’ve been in pain and I’ve seen pain
Our situation’s like a beggar ‘cause it needs change

[Chorus: Zi]
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got

[Verse 2: Zi]
Just lost my car in a fucking stupid accident
Just lost a good girl ‘cause all I cared about was smashing it
When it rains it pours I can’t be mad at this
So I’m bumping Jaheim to remind me that I’m fabulous
I’m shooting for the stars trying to pull the right triggers
‘Cause looking back on my future past
I wanna see some nice pictures
And I won’t judge you but you ain’t gotta be a part time stripper
They throw kids in this world with no direction like a blind pitcher
I been doing this for years and I’m still not a dime richer
You can have talent on your team but time is not with you
It’s funny how I use to believe in Santa Claus and shit
And now just believing in myself is like a constant quiz
Sometimes I’m feeling down sometimes I’m confident
I can’t fight death but I can fight for the life I wanna live

[Chorus: Zi]
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got

[Verse 3: Zi]
If life is a movie let me keep the footage
So I can look back on all the work I’ve put in
The choices I made and can I see what else I could’ve been
Have I gotten close to what I should’ve been
It’s funny how today’s losers use to be the coolest kids
‘Cause back then you either knew how to fight or had the newest shit
Needles on the floor you learn about what they do with this
Yo what’s up with the people that I grew up with
Let me see what they’ve become
Oh shit they got a son
They’ve been together since high school they got that love
What’s up with him for real he’s still on the run
Can’t believe she got that position use to be so dumb
Damn all these people never left the block
Damn she became a cop
Yall need to stop me I can go on and on
Shit that shit can make a song of its own

[Chorus: Zi]
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got
Count your blessings don’t expect anything from God
We keep pushing making moves ‘till the day we die
And if one day they see us at the top
Tell ‘em we fought for every single thing we got
