US3 - Dead End Street lyrics

rate me

I never thought the streets that I loved would turn to hate me

Same nights that gave me a life would try and take me

Same streets I played on they'd have me lay on

The next morn same spot kids play on

Tomorrow never comes again

One night remember it well

I saw a war becoming fahrenheit, hotter than hell

Blaze the street with potentials, no longer we speak

The next 40 days ways we no longer stay weak

Thinking of dark nights moonlight and games that we played

'Til the guns came, and then the nuns came

And took my youth away

Never been the same (since) that day

But I always had to walk that way

Nobody knows what I coulda been, or if they saw me again

Just because of the violence of men

It's like I'm living in the last days, pushing me in

When I'm walking down the street's dead end

Blame it on the night time

City streets I can't sleep

Blame it on the concrete slabs my Tims eat

The murderous glow

Thoughts you never know when it could happen

Hoping streets would blink and let go, but gun clapping

Surround me like the stratus

I fear from all the madness

For now until my heart beats slow

Another shadow lying another lost child crying

Generations frozen in tears and half dying

But all giving

I thought I saw your light shine, was it the moonlight

Felt you when I wrote the last line

Give me the strength to show the next one, make 'em all yours

Next time I wanna spark put the flame on pause

Poverty you got me

Unemployment, yo he shot me

Stress, put me on ice and played hockey

Like I'm living in the last days, pushing me in

When I'm walking down the street's dead end

I dreamed of being the fastest

Your favourite son, make you proud of me

The streets so hard they won

Used to leave the school books just to run with the crooks

Was it the fancy cars that made me drive around with that look

Every night like the 31st of October

Couldn't stand to face reality and not be sober

Had a child dream to one day take the world over

Until I laid in the battle like a fallen soldier

So many pitfalls, you never know what life might bring

Have you trapped inside a world of material things

Outta every corner, a light ready to strike

I soared above the consciousness and landed in flight

Thinking of dark nights moonlight and games that we played

Like graffiti on society, mistakes that I made

Like I'm living in the last days, pushing me in

When I'm walking down the street's dead end
