歌词
(Verse 1)
Little boy alone in a world so cold,
No hand to hold, no story told,
Mama's gone, left him in the night,
Daddy never was there , always outta sight.
He walks the streets, with shoes worn thin,
Hunger in his eyes, life's wearing him thin,
No shelter from the storm, no place to call home,
Just a cardboard bed, and he's all alone.
(Chorus)
Why do I wander, with no place to go?
Because home's just a dream, and dreams fade slow.
Why do I shiver, in the cold night's air?
Because love's been a ghost, never truly there.
Why do I fight, for a life so tough?
Because hope's all I have, even when it's not enough.
Verse 2)
Faces in the shadows, eyes filled with sin,
He's just a child, but the streets pulled him in,
Hands that once held toys now grip the wrong,
Caught up in a game where everything's gone.
Abused and bruised, trust turned to dust,
In a world of deceit, who can he trust?
Tears fall like rain, but no one sees his pain,
In a concrete jungle, he's lost in the game.
(Chorus)
Why do I wander, with no place to go?
Because home's just a dream, and dreams fade slow.
Why do I shiver, in the cold night's air?
Because love's been a ghost, never truly there.
Why do I fight, for a life so tough?
Because hope's all I have, even when it's not enough.
(Bridge)
Dreams of better days, they're fading fast,
Memories of laughter, now in the past,
He's just a boy, but he's seen too much,
Life's heavy hand, with a cold, hard touch.
(Verse 3)
Illegal hustles, just to get by,
Caught in a cycle, can't break, can't fly,
He's lost in the system, forgotten by the world,
Just a broken soul, a lost little boy.
Hope seems like a distant star in the night,
Every breath a battle, every moment a fight,
But in his heart, a spark still glows,
A will to survive, no matter how it goes.
(Chorus)
Why do I wander, with no place to go?
Because home's just a dream, and dreams fade slow.
Why do I shiver, in the cold night's air?
Because love's been a ghost, never truly there.
Why do I fight, for a life so tough?
Because hope's all I have, even when it's not enough.
