They say everyone's the smith of their own luck
But who knows, maybe I don't deserve any luck at all
They ask me why I don't make love songs
Look me in the eyes, tell me, do you see this hate?
And my daily life was f*cking around, the arcade and rolling joints
Ridiculous sh*t, ridiculous, I know
Goddamn, what a ridiculous time
A boy with no prospects, roaming the streets
And nothing on his mind but that street stuff
Until I saw you and your eyes
Alhamdulillah, a dream comes true
But maybe it's just asking too much
That you could love a boy like me
I'm a boy from the streets, I own nothing
But I wanna be honest with you 'cause you matter to me
Yet you took my hand
First time in nineteen years I made it to shore
Tell me where you were all those years
'Cause I turned invincible when you held me in your arms
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
And I'm sorry 'cause that's just not enough
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
And I'm sorry 'cause that's just not enough
With you by my side my dream came true
All my friends said we're a dream couple
I don't have to stay up all night anymore
'Cause lovers got no business in the club
You took all the hate and all the rage outta me
I think fate's finally treating me right
You ain't human, no, I'd know
You must be an angel, that's why you protect me
All your girls laughed at you
You didn't give a sh*t, it didn't bother you
They said it looks weird
A street boy with a girl from a good family
But I'll make everything right, promise, with every kiss
So you won't have to be ashamed of me anymore
I know I kept that last job for only ten days
But you didn't see how much I was ashamed
Please trust me, I'll prove it to everyone
Don't let them fill your head, let me stay in your life
Rich and pretty? No, I never was
But I was your king in my fantasy
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
And I'm sorry 'cause that's just not enough
And now don't tell me the spark is gone
Just look at yourself, you can't handle the pressure
And you wonder if I was really worth it
'Cause of us you've got nothing but trouble in your world
And you think your dad might be right after all
And your future with me might end up bad
You need a man who's already on his feet
Not like me, drifting through life as a daydreamer
Who drives a Benz and owns a nice house
That's something you don't wanna give up like your sight
I can totally get you, 'cause you love glitz and glamour
And in your world I'm just a sick bum
They laugh at me, call me street boy
And you laughed along at the street boy
At the boy who stood at your window at night
And called your name, forget that street thief
I'm gone, somewhere they know how to value me
Where they don't stare at me like I came from the Enterprise
Your love was just a big joke
And because of it I turned into a boy without a heart
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
And I'm sorry 'cause that's just not enough
Rich and pretty? No, that's not me
I'm the wrong one if that stuff matters to you
I've only got my heart and my honesty
And I'm sorry 'cause that's just not enough
