[Verse 1]
Passport page, fresh stamp on it
Old stress in the bin, left that at the gate
Neck pillow, deep breath, aisle seat, small smile
Watching clouds peel back like old tape
Carry-on bag got fruit and a journal
Refill bottle in the side, that’s the flex
Used to race straight for the late-night drive-thru
Now I’m reading labels, learning what’s next
Plane lands, I’m lighter in the lobby
Morning sun sliding through the glass, no rush
Walk past the buffet, pick greens, drink water
Let the day unfold, not crush
[Chorus]
New road, same me, but I walk more slow
Let the breeze in my chest, let the loud thoughts go
I’ve been riding for a while, now I’m steering from within
Travel far, eat well, breathe deep, stay zen
Yeah, new road, same me, but my eyes more kind
Leave the junk in the past, keep the peace in mind
Every mile that I move, I remember where I’ve been
Travel far, eat well, breathe deep, stay zen (stay zen)
[Verse 2]
Airport tram, I’m standing, not scrolling
Watch a kid waving at the tracks, that’s joy
Order brown rice, grilled plate, extra color
Old me would’ve laughed like, “miss the fries, boy”
Morning jog by the bay, sweat on the temple
Heart drum steady, but the pace feel free (uh)
Used to run from myself, now I pace with myself
Every inhale, I let be
Little incense curl in the hostel kitchen
Hot tea in a cracked blue mug
Locals talking, I just listen, just listen
Give the moment a hug
[Chorus]
New road, same me, but I walk more slow
Let the breeze in my chest, let the loud thoughts go
I’ve been riding for a while, now I’m steering from within
Travel far, eat well, breathe deep, stay zen
Yeah, new road, same me, but my eyes more kind
Leave the junk in the past, keep the peace in mind
Every mile that I move, I remember where I’ve been
Travel far, eat well, breathe deep, stay zen (stay zen)
