I live in a vacumn, no air I´m stuck in back room, somewhere But it don´t bother me amyway ´cos I know Goin´ to get out soon, I got places to go There´s a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe but right now I´m just tryin´ to survive Livin´ rough, shackin´ up, hangin´ tough, shapin´ up
Get the picture, get the scene I paint fo ryou Ah, but it´s worth it, all the pain I´m goin´ thru Beat the sidewalk, hear the fast talk, everyday I don´t worry ´cos I know I´m on my way
The view from my window, ain´t too good Should be some mail for me soon from Hollywood When the phone rings, could be big things, anytime Operator is there somethin´ wrong with this line
Rejections, I´ve had a few
Happens to the best, it ain´t nothin´ new Still I keep on swingin´ away S´gonna be a breakthrough any day
Keep hanging in there, that´s my philosophy And soon I´ll find my big chance, wait and see Some make it fast, but they just come and go Me, I´m built to last and that´s one thing I know
Those straight life people, they don´t understand Yeah they just want it all laid out and planned Me, I´m not like them, I do things my own way I know I´m gonna break thru any day
Life in the city, can get you down There´s amillion guys out there all snooping around You gotta think you´re the best, beat out all the rest
And fight your way up to the top of the town
There´s a big world waiting for me I just need a break, someone to believe Right now I´m just tryin´ to survive I´m know I´m gonna get there, dead or alive
I´m going to reach for the moon And all the stars too I´m gonna get there real soon, I know I will I want the universe, and all the planers too
