streets

i could be somewhere in the cold, where dreams come and go, out there in the streets with no hope, or a place where they know, not to trust, what good would that be, and they know, not to love, what good would that be, what good would that be, would you like me if i had a gun, dodging cops always on the run now, getting caught up over petty drama, selling drugs to somebody's momma, i'm telling you these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i swear everything that glitters ain't gold, these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i've been loving these streets but i don't wanna love these streets no more, they know nothing, about bullet holes and that silence, they don't wanna know, looking at that judge, thinking that he got you this time, they don't wanna know, talking to your loved ones through a window, days, hours, minutes winding down real slow, real slow, would you like me if i had a gun, dodging cops always on the run now, getting caught up over petty drama, selling drugs to somebody's momma, i'm telling you these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i swear everything that glitters ain't gold, these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i've been loving these streets but i don't wanna love these streets no more, i can't sign out, get pulled back when i climb out, it won't let me go, it won't let me go, took me long enough to find out that time out just saved my soul, i remember all the pain that the game caused me, i remember falling down, falling down to my knees, praying i won't be the next one, to fall to these streets, would you like me if i had a gun, dodging cops always on the run now, getting caught up over petty drama, selling drugs to somebody's momma, i'm telling you these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i swear everything that glitters ain't gold, these streets ain't, these streets ain't so pretty, i've been loving these streets but i don't wanna love these streets no more
