Songtexte Prodigal Pete - Rachid

Left a good home, suburban drone
Had to fulfill some dreams of my own
Dancing in bars, sleeping in cars
One day I will be a superstar
On these mean streets, I feel so cheap
I've had to trick for all of my treats
City of swine, the cruelest kind
Dear mom and dad, I'm doing just fine

I won't let you down
I'll make you proud
I won't let you down
I'll make you proud

Get out the bed, that's what they said
You've got to give head to get ahead
The more they spit, the more I'll shine
Dear mom and dad, I'm doing just fine

I won't let you down
I'll make you proud
I won't let you down
I'll make you proud

I'm here on my own
Although, I could really use a friend
Who wouldn't betray me and forgive my deadly sin
I won't go back home, I'll make it alone
I'm gonna rise, I'm gonna shine

I won't let you down
I'll make you proud
I won't let you down
I'll make you proud

I won't let you down
I'll make you proud
I won't let you down
I'll make you proud

My story's on the rise
I'm gonna shine
My story's on the rise
I'm gonna shine
I'm gonna shine
