Gus G. - Big City

Looks like the times have got the best of me
My world is jaded, or so it seems
It's got me crawling through this urban dream
Life is oh so hard, yes it's oh so hard

How's it make you feel?

So I - take the bus and try to hurry home
I know the landlord is waiting, expecting compensation
Hustle and bustle over sanity
I can take this wind and grind because I'm where I wanna be

In the big city - I come alive
In the big city - I don't want to hide
Cuz in the big city - the struggles real
In the big city - my dreams will... set me free

I play with fire and sometimes I get burned
I took too many chances that left me so defenseless
But I'm not afraid to take a chance on you
You might leave me for another but I'm sure you'll enjoy the ride

In the big city - I come alive
In the big city - I don't want to hide
Cuz in the big city - the struggles real
In the big city - my dreams will... set me free

I go on, cuz there's more to life than just pretending
How long till I'm over the line?
So long, all these avenues seem never-ending
So strong, I cross over the line

I cross over the line...

In the big city - I come alive
In the big city - I don't want to hide
Cuz in the big city - the struggles real
In the big city - my dreams will... set me free
