lyrics

One step from the border street
Change in neighborhood
The difference is an escapee

How many wet seedy bars
and dark alleys will it take
to make it look the part?

He’s an actor in the scene
But who say’s the play’s not
Everywhere that he has been


Pilgrimage, to figure it all out craftily
was given a taste of artistry
but locked into concrete neighbohoods

Pilgrimage, with nothing to give up but to gain
the knowledge that every thing’s the same
Both inside and outside boundary lines


Curbing lonely urban blues
took a detour
to hear musicians paint their hues

Muscles moving to the sound
Let him bump into a girl
Who danced the scene she found



He found the scene in her eyes
-reflected the people, not the place
He found the scene in her hair
-it shown of the people, not the place
He found the scene in her voice
-it shouted the people, not the place
He found the scene in her dance
-it moved like the people, not the place
