fast car

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way
tracy chapman:
song: fast car.


at this point of my mind is clean,clear
more toughs come in to me,
and i realize piece by piece the mistakes
i have done,in this moment of my life
where i don't feel nothing
the only point of light i see
is solin and lucio,
i respect now the way you protect
our children's.
i would do exactly the same as you,
i will protect them.
so now i understand why you doing all this
things to me.
is ok, i want to be part of their life's
i want to be their dad
and now been clean made me realize
that solin santiago and lucio luna have the best mother
for them,i can tell good job
for don't let your heart cross the line of duty
for the safest of our kids.
i don't feel sorry for anything that
i made, because if this would not happened
i will keep this weakness in my soul
i in the process of healing my heart
so i can provide stronger love
and stronger toughs to them.
i Lil bit of self love and discipline
is not an excuse my behavior
but we know it was the tension
of living in the same house
and i sad to say this
but you forgot about me
you forgot to love me, and you
forgot
you was my best friend,
that made me be who i was
but is not your fault,
it was something i needed
to fix in my soul,
no body know who to work,
and know i feel more solid and prepare
to keep living a healthy life
i feel my heart empty
but clean,with out pain
suffering or regrets.
this thing was meant to be
and i accept it.
forgive me for what i said, forgive me for
what i did. i forgive you for everything
that happened before i don't have to
forgive you for nothing
you have done to me now.
because you have to do it
for them.
than you for make me realize
where i have to be and what i have to
do.
