Charlie Farley Concrete Dreams Lyrics
Concrete Dreams by Charlie Farley
[Chorus]
You can call me a sinner
You can call me a saint
You can say I'm I winner you can say that I ain't
Just know it won't change a damn thing
I am who I am, so I am who I blame while I sip this whisky
And change things Concrete dreams
[Verse 1]
In the streets I was a kid I've had an itch I couldn't fix
It's as if even when I did scratch it just deeper in the skin
Till a scab was covering it
Then I peeled it back and digged deeper until no skin flesh was left
Then I went to discovering I'll have this itch until death
Cause it's in my bones
From on the road been gone to being home
But being alone in my own zone writing songs
I've got an addiction ain't no way to fix it
Just give it what it needs and keep on living with it
Ain't no way to kick this habit but damn it I love it though
I wouldn't wanna take a ride in your boat
[Chorus]
You can call me a sinner
You can call me a saint
You can say I'm I winner you can say that I ain't
Just know it won't change a damn thing
I am who I am, so I am who I blame while I sip this whisky
And change things Concrete dreams
[Verse 2]
I've been cursed with a gift
Guess I've been blessed with a curse
Yeah I've been broke and I'm paid that don't change what I'm worth
I wait for the day when I can exchange words for and honest living
But until then I'm getting by knowing it could be worse
I could be a hypocrite with a whole lot of jealousy in me
Wishing I was chasing dreams
But I can't cause I'm always too busy
Envying the things I don't understand
Luckily for me I ain't had a plan
I got a dream in a bottle empty tank going full throttle
I got an outlaw status because I come from [?] honest
You can call me a sinner
You can call me a saint
You can say I'm I winner you can say that I ain't
Just know it won't change a damn thing
I am who I am, so I am who I blame while I sip this whisky
And change things Concrete dreams
[Verse 1]
