The Promise - Andy Black

Living on the west side, born and raised

Made a deal with the devil, found glory days

There’s no way that I’ll stay

Driving down on highway 75

Watch the world come down on borrowed time

Find some way to escape

But we all find home

We all find home

Do you remember all the plans we made?

Hopin', prayin' for a better day

Tell me what ever happened to the love we gave?

The promise that we both betrayed

And the songs we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me what ever happened to what I’ve become?

The pain I feel for where I’m from

Hangin' from the cross on 50 West

Got a dream and a chance to run from this

I’m locked in, believin'

Drinkin' 'til I’m lost and giving it up

Another day, another chance to test my luck

Way out there they won’t care

But we can’t get out

We can’t get out

Do you remember all the plans we made?

Hopin', prayin' for a better day

Tell me what ever happened to the love we gave?

The promise that we both betrayed

And the songs we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me what ever happened to what I’ve become?

The pain I feel for where I’m from

In the city I found my hope

I know, I feel it

My purpose to end it

I can’t go home

Do you remember all the plans we made?

Hopin', prayin' for a better day

Tell me what ever happened to the love we gave?

The promise that we both betrayed

And the songs we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me what ever happened to what I’ve become?

The pain I feel for where I’m from

Do you remember all the plans we made?

Hopin', prayin' for a better day

Tell me what ever happened to the love we gave?

The promise that we both betrayed
