This song is about my move to Los Angeles. The first year here was quite the struggle, but the City of Angeles gave me the hope I needed to keep pushing through the pain.
Lyrics
Only 2 bags packed heading from Philly On a plane to LA feeling kinda silly As I’m holding back the tears I haven’t cried. Just days ago I lost my housing situation, And I’m single now from our last conversation, I’d be breaking down, but I gotta stay strong. Slowly descending the clouds greet as we touch down Anxiously waiting to meet you Chorus Staring face to face with the city Your mountain tops are looking oh so pretty And the palm trees sway into the night Reminds me I’m gonna be alright No matter how much I cry, You lift me up with every city light And feed my dreams so I can fly Thanks to you I’m gonna be alright, Alright Staying with a stranger wishing it was different And I’m working two jobs just to make a living While the tears Inside wash the days away Try to make friends, but everybody’s busy Going out alone pretending like it’s no biggie But when I go home it catches up to me Hoping not knowing but trusting you’ll show me I’m right where I need to be Chorus Starting from zero it just isn’t easy, trying to pave a new way Slow ascending each tear that has fallen, Gives me the strength to keep going. Chorus No matter how much I cry, You lift me up with every city light And feed my dreams so I can fly Thanks to you I’m gonna be alright, Alright.
