Can you read the determination on my face; I'm as solid as the gravel now.
|
Cause I kept getting on my feet after all the times you knocked me down.
|
Went back to see the place I came from and I began to understand my pride
|
From the brick streets a northern factory town where Grandma's work improved my chances
|
|
Common man, this is me, I'm not ashamed to be here I am this is me.
|
I'm glad you're uncomfortable near me
|
|
Never had nothin never no one to care, nothin but the wind in my hair, still I'm a millionaire
|
|
You see me standin out on fifth and union right across from the abandoned drive-in
|
The sun's gone down on the future here, the past one leaves my mind
|
The rich boys gave up on you but the soul out here is much too strong
|
And I'll carry it with me for my whole life, the face of human dignity
|
I don't have to be the boy with the most cake. I don't have to be the boy with the most cake
|
Still I'm a millionaire.
