lirik lagu zi - paris
[chorus: zi]
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
[verse 1: zi]
so many things to say i don’t know where to start
this is where i was raised born and learned how to walk
some of the best of my days i’ll never find ’em abroad
i got love for this place it’s got a piece of my heart
lights on everything becomes magical
then you got the other side with trash shacks and rats of course
second nation of hip hop and it’s the capital
if you can’t understand it’s just ’cause love is not rational
and maybe you don’t wanna visit
but every year 30 million people think different
i know you know about the fashion how the food is delicious
but my plan and mission is to show the bigger picture
’cause wishes and pennies sometimes it’s all you got
it ain’t always pretty quit putting things in a box
but really don’t wanna dramatize
’cause if my mother hadn’t fell in love with the city she wouldn’t’ve fell in love with my pops
[chorus: zi]
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
[verse 2: zi]
my city’s not my president and f-ck who told you so
my city’s multicultural
and it’s a fact some will work twice as much and never get what they’re hoping for
but where i grew up skin color didn’t make us unapproachable
we might’ve joked about each others parents
or made fun of what the other dude was wearing
but trust me you’ll have a whole different outlook on this planete
growing up amongst whites blacks and arabs
muslims and christians
seeing that it doesn’t have to be the cause of some friction
hands down the best city in the world to live in
but they’re still so many living in appalling conditions
and that’s what
they don’t let the tourists see
the world’s a movie and no one wants to play the shortest scene
kids stuck dreaming of money and power
a lot of people i know have never gone up the eiffel tower
[chorus: zi]
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
[verse 3: zi]
can’t afford to move but i probably wouldn’t even if i could
’cause not too many cities hold memories of my childhood
and from the big city to the wild hoods
when i say paris i’m talking ’bout the one in the guidebook
i’m talking 91 92 93 95
94 77 78 and 75
from where a lot things are too expensive to buy
to where you basically just live to survive
from where lights shine brighter than the stars
to where you still got break dancers and graffitis on the walls
from gorgeous monuments and famous boulevards
to where we’ll call you rich just because you got a yard
we k!lled the king in 93 so you don’t wanna claim the crown
far from being the only rapper coming from this town
but i’ma ride or die for it and i’ma try to make you proud
[chorus: zi]
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
i love new york but i represent paris
got family out in texas but i represent paris
tunisia stand up still i represent paris
i’m talking to the world but i represent paris
