I Live On the Streets
I live on the streets they're not pearly white.
To tell the truth I didn't realize how hard it would be to
Sustain
Until I had to remain
Then I didn't know whether to laugh or cry at night.
I have given up the sunlight
Where I have no name.
I live on the streets they're not pearly white.
To tell the truth I didn't realize how hard it would be to
Sustain.
My night when it lights
Is not tame.
Peer pressure I disdain
No matter how slight.
I live on the streets they're not pearly white.
To tell the truth I didn't realize how hard it would be to
Sustain.
