Street Life Lyrics - Singles - Astal

Check it out, oh 

Detroit city got me gritty I'm filthy I can't help it 

I really hope to make it with this hand I was dealt with 

Staring out my rear view, looking for a clear view 

It's hard to pray to God when you feel the devils near you 

Kids turn to burglars, streets are full of murders 

Enough to turn you cold so we all pack burners 

Junkies by the furnace and they trying to keep warm 

Doing right ain't feeling right so I rather do wrong 

The world is on fire you can hear the bodies burning 

The oil is running out but the wheels keep turning 

Tomorrow ain't certain so I'm living for today 

I hope to go to college but prison's in the way 

Enough stress to turn me crazed so I'm looking much older 

You kill for colder if you turn the wrong corner 

Life expectancy is shorter than you really can imagine 

Hope to see 23, the only thing I'm asking 

It's another day alone, it's a war to survive 

I'm all on my own, hope to make it home alive 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

My heart's turned to stone man it's almost like it died 

You could run and run forever but there ain't no where to hide 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

Now who the hell's there, someone's knocking on my door 

I feel death is out to get me hope to make it out for sure 

There ain't a star in the sky so it's hard to make a wish 

I might be the next to die, hard to see through the mist 

Blowing kiss from my mother, give a hug to my brother 

Light a candle on the mantle, say a prayer, say another 

It's a street life, we fight for everything we got 

It's the street life, three strikes, the only thing we got 

I make my money in the hallway, feast by the doorway 

Sell a pack, make a stack, I'll be here all day 

Hustle when it's broad day, forget what the law say 

Welcome to the jungle you a long way from broadway 

Never knock the hustle and they really would've see is 

Pistol packin in my jeans, see the demons in my dreams 

Now what does it mean when your body turns numb? 

And you're scared of what's comin so you begin to run 

It's another day alone, it's a war to survive 

I'm all on my own, hope to make it home alive 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

My heart's turned to stone man it's almost like it died 

You could run and run forever but there ain't no where to hide 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

Call the cops, call the swastik, gotta mend me a loose 

Doose doose in my goose ain't no calling a truce 

I spit the truth and nothing but it, now why can't I kick the bucket 

I'm used to having nothing so I'm always having something 

Have my mind on the front, why the hell would I lie 

I know exactly where I'm going, why the hell should I try 

Everybody's getting locked up, bodies turning chopped up 

Girls are being knocked up, money's being mocked up 

You could get socked up so watch how you talking 

The whole city's scorching so watch where you walking 

This can happen often so it's really nothing new to me 

Usually, you could catch a kiss before puberty 

People's screaming unity but nothing seems to change 

Everybody's on the way, diamond knows what's in my brain 

Enough to make a man insane, all I feel is the rain 

I wanna welcome you to the city full of pain 

It's another day alone, it's a war to survive 

I'm all on my own, hope to make it home alive 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

My heart's turned to stone man it's almost like it died 

You could run and run forever but there ain't no where to hide 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

It's another day alone, it's a war to survive 

I'm all on my own, hope to make it home alive 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

My heart's turned to stone man it's almost like it died 

You could run and run forever but there ain't no where to hide 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life 

It's the street life, street life
