The Promise lyrics

[Verse 1]

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 the highway 75

Watch the world come down on borrowed time

Find some way to escape!

[Pre-Chorus]

But we all find hope...

We all find hope

[Chorus]

Do you remember all the plans we made

Hope and pray for a better day

Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave

The promise that we both betrayed

And the faults we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me whatever happened to what I've become

The pain I feel for where I'm from

[Verse 2]

Hanging from the cross on 50 west

You got a dream and a chance to run from this

I'm locked in believing!

Drinking till I'm lost and giving it up

Another day another chance to test my luck

Way out there they won't care!

[Pre-Chorus]

But we can't get out...

We can't get out

[Chorus]

Do you remember all the plans we made

Hope and pray for a better day

Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave

The promise that we both betrayed

And the faults we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me whatever happened to what I've become

The pain I feel for where I'm from

[Bridge]

In the city I found my hope

I know, I feel it

My purpose to end it

I can't go home

[Chorus]

Do you remember all the plans we made

Hope and pray for a better day

Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave

The promise that we both betrayed

And the faults we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me whatever happened to what I've become

The pain I feel for where I'm from

Do you remember all the plans we made

Hope and pray for a better day

Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave

The promise that we both betrayed

And the faults we sang

The times we fought for everything

Tell me whatever happened to what I've become

The pain I feel for where I'm from
