Inner City Kid

[Intro: davecreates]
He was an inner city kid
Innocent, in a sin city with
Survival on his mind
This is his story
Hear his heart
Hear his cry...

[Verse 1: davecreates]
Inner city kid in a globe full of vultures
In a city with stripper poles and the potion
Mum crying every night praying in devotion
Devil slaying every night preying on the broken
And who do you trust in the belly of the beast, if they'll turn on you when you try and leave?
What a time to be alive
All he can see is grey in his sky
Wondering if he'll live forever when he dies
In this city full of vices
The advice he's getting is leaving his mum sweating in her sleep
Six feet is pretty deep
For a twenty something
Always stunting
It's just stunning how he's still standing on his feet
When she hears the sirens scream
Is this the night were
Her reality is turned into a nightmare
A knock on the front door
Could be a church friend or a church funeral
She knows that she has to attend

[Hook: Banké]
Leaving everything I know
But no one wants to see me go
No one wants to see me go
Alone, do I walk this road alone?

[Verse 2: davecreates]
"BULLET PROOF" tatted on his chest
Since a young g
Ridding with the boys from the block
Won't stop
Never seen daddy since he came here
Earth is looking something like a prison on the rocks
Prison break, prison break, tell me is it late
Chase the money and the fame
Get it in
Never settling till he sees the top
But lately life is pressing him for everything he got

Getting out the city was a life's dream
Thought he had the right team
Brothers in arms
Brothers now armed with attitude and armor
They sense that he wanted to leave
They give him drama
Deadly look in their eyes like assassins eyes on the prize
And now they feel betrayed like a Judas kiss to the face
Who's a friend or an enemy
Garden of Gethsemane vibes
All he knows is that he's meant for something greater in life

He's gotta live

[Hook: Banké]
Leaving everything I know
But no one wants to see me go
No one wants to see me go
Alone, do I walk this road alone?

Leaving everything I know
But no one wants to see me go
No one wants to see me go
Alone
I guess I'll walk this road alone
