Penthouse And Pavement (Single Version)

Sweat my youth away

With the rules we have to play

Speeding through your magazine

Pistol, pavement, no T.V.

(Talk and talk)

No time (nighttime)

Burnt inside, burnt inside, burnt inside

Here comes the daylight, here comes my job

Uptown in the penthouse or downtown with the mob

Here comes the nighttime, here comes my role

Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul

Now here comes my job

Credit bleeding with the mob

Dreams become ideals

No one knows the way I feel

(Love to love)

Daytime (right time)

All my life, all my life, all my life

Here comes the daylight, here comes my job

Uptown in the penthouse or downtown with the mob

Here comes the nighttime, here comes my role

Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul

Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul

As you face the wall

God make it this time or never at all

Before your chance has gone

Captain this lead role, and you'll be the one

(Shine and shine)

This time (my time)

Make me free at last

Make me free at last

Make me free at last

Here comes the daylight, here comes my job

Uptown in the penthouse or downtown with the mob

Here comes the nighttime, here comes my role

Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul

(Repeat)
