City Living
Got this song I don’t know if from below or above.
But who am I to sing in the tower of love?
Who are they to stand in the firing-line?
Rolling in time getting in tune with city living,
A lady stumbles into an alley at night.
You’re testing the payers of your mother now little girl,
You’re pushing your guardian angel too far
You can decide you can choose
Whether you lose or whether your winning
Inspiration, I’ll have a shot of that over here
Exultation, you can fly out like the lark at the break of day.
Look at the time it’s the season of treason and the city bleeds.
People pass on the street but they see no reason to greet.
Like books just left to rot on a library shelf,
Untapped, unopened, unappreciated, unloved.
You can decide you can choose
Whether to break that smile or refuse
Inspiration, I’ll have a shot of that over here
Exultation, you can fly out like the lark at the break of day.
