streets of desire
on these streets of desire
i think i forgot your name
but i keep the fire
deep inside me just the same
all pimps, hustlers and pushers
barely anyone is real
theyre giving out their insides
only looking for a deal
on these streets of desire
maybe we can take a chance
we can lift ourselves up higher
we can profit and advance
with a different kind of money
its a special kind of wealth
that drives us to keep going
in this search inside ourself
on these streets of desire
temptations at every turn
but the seller is a liar
in the crucible we burn
we come out the other side
and were better off, surely
our desires are purified
and theres nothing left thats hurting
and theres nothing left thats hurting
