She's got a heart of gold wrapped in chains,
Living for the moment but it's driving her insane.
Every step she takes, another chance to fall,
She’s caught in a game, will she answer the call?
Toni, don’t you know the streets don’t love you?
You’re dancing with the danger, baby, what’s a girl to do?
Procrastinating rehab, got your mind in a twist,
I can’t watch you die on this never-ending list.
Come back to the light, where your family waits,
Don’t throw it all away, don’t tempt the fates.
Skating down the boulevard, high on the thrill,
But every little high comes with a heavy chill.
Mom and sisters calling, can you hear their plea?
The streets are a prison, don’t let them keep you free.
Conflicted in your mind, pulled in every way,
You’re searching for the answers as the night turns to gray.
Each minute you wait, the darkness creeps in,
Dancing with destruction, where do I begin?
Toni, don’t you know the streets don’t love you?
You’re dancing with the danger, baby, what’s a girl to do?
Procrastinating rehab, got your mind in a twist,
I can’t watch you die on this never-ending list.
Come back to the light, where your family waits,
Don’t throw it all away, don’t tempt the fates.
Roller skates beneath the moonlight,
A beautiful disaster, she’s losing the fight.
Gotta break these chains, take a step towards the dawn,
Toni, hold my hand, let’s find where you belong.
Toni, don’t you know the streets don’t love you?
You’re dancing with the danger, baby, what’s a girl to do?
Procrastinating rehab, got your mind in a twist,
I can’t watch you die on this never-ending list.
Come back to the light, where your family waits,
Don’t throw it all away, don’t tempt the fates.
Toni, rise up, let the music play,
Leave the shadows behind, don’t let them take you away.
Together we’ll fight, through the darkness we’ll roam,
Find your way back, baby, to the place you call home.
