I asked him
Where you stay? When you headed back home?
His story ain't a bedtime story it is damn cold
He said the gym or the office at the church
Sometimes I'm not that lucky, every night I gotta search for-
A new place and I hope it's really warm
I would've never known coz his clothes are barely torn
He's always looking fresh on some natural swag
Though his entire wardrobe can only fit his gym bag
No home to run to coz everyone has passed away
I barely know my folks coz they were taken by AIDS
My grandma followed right after coz of old age
And I've been searching for my aunty since then
In this city of gold, this so called land of promise
At least I get to dance and teach these kids so I'm not jobless
I'll push this passion, it's the only thing that gives me joy
Unqualified but I will make though I'm unemployed

I asked her
Where you stay? When you headed back home?
Her story ain't a bedtime story it's a nightmare
She said a shelter downtown at a church
If I don't show up early by tonight I gotta search for
A new place and I hope it's really safe
My daughter's just a baby, gotta find a warmer space
And find a couple boxes for a pillow and a bed for her
I never used care I wanted her dead coz
She a reminder and a product of my dark passed
God's blessing at a time that I never asked
But then her smile takes the pain away so fast
But I hate that she looks like my uncle
In this city of gold, this so called land of promise
Is where I get to hide from my uncle's sexual problems
I'll build a house one day, raise my daughter right
But right now gotta hustle milk for the night

City of Gold
So called land of promise

When the winter time comes and the summer leaves fall
Just know it's only best that you leave your nest - find a new home
Fly away now fly away little bird
Fly away now fly away little bird 

City of Gold
So called land of promise
