Street Life
Jaya The Cat · Other Songs - Jaya The Cat
and now what once was a life has just become a fight
in this street life
what once you called stars have become your roof
who once was a brother, now just a stranger to you
passing faces have become just marks
corner to corner, you travel thru the dark
in this street life.
