It's a hard world

I live in a vacumn, no air
I´m stuck in back room, somewhere
But it don´t bother me amyway ´cos I know
Goin´ to get out soon, I got places to go
There´s a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
but right now I´m just tryin´ to survive
Livin´ rough, shackin´ up, hangin´ tough, shapin´ up
Get the picture, get the scene I paint fo ryou
Ah, but it´s worth it, all the pain I´m goin´ thru
Beat the sidewalk, hear the fast talk, everyday
I don´t worry ´cos I know I´m on my way
The view from my window, ain´t too good
Should be some mail for me soon from Hollywood
When the phone rings, could be big things, anytime
Operator is there somethin´ wrong with this line
Rejections, I´ve had a few
Happens to the best, it ain´t nothin´ new
Still I keep on swingin´ away
S´gonna be a breakthrough any day
Keep hanging in there, that´s my philosophy
And soon I´ll find my big chance, wait and see
Some make it fast, but they just come and go
Me, I´m built to last and that´s one thing I know
Those straight life people, they don´t understand
Yeah they just want it all laid out and planned
Me, I´m not like them, I do things my own way
I know I´m gonna break thru any day
Life in the city, can get you down
There´s amillion guys out there all snooping around
You gotta think you´re the best, beat out all the rest
And fight your way up to the top of the town
There´s a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
Right now I´m just tryin´ to survive
I´m know I´m gonna get there, dead or alive
I´m going to reach for the moon
And all the stars too
I´m gonna get there real soon, I know I will
I want the universe, and all the planers too
I´m stuck in back room, somewhere
But it don´t bother me amyway ´cos I know
Goin´ to get out soon, I got places to go
There´s a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
but right now I´m just tryin´ to survive
Livin´ rough, shackin´ up, hangin´ tough, shapin´ up
Get the picture, get the scene I paint fo ryou
Ah, but it´s worth it, all the pain I´m goin´ thru
Beat the sidewalk, hear the fast talk, everyday
I don´t worry ´cos I know I´m on my way
The view from my window, ain´t too good
