sin city
  From the warming welcome when you first enter the city
  To the the very middle you never have to worry about it getting dark wherever go
  The visitors rush to their luxurious rooms
  Hurrying to the expensive bars and shiny slots downstairs
  Everyone seems to be a annoying drunk kid at the party
  No one ever wants to leave this “wonderful” city
  they refer to as an adult playground
  No one else sees what’s pass the blvd
  Only the locals heading to mountain views
  To see the lights beyond the the MGM, LUXOR, HIGH ROLLER, etc.
  Such a beautiful sight to see
  But when you head back down you remember what this city is made of
  We get to a red light
  as i look out the window
  I see a large black escalade turn into the front of a gas station parking lot
  And outta of nowhere two young teenagers run outta the store
  Trying to carry their weight
  with a 24 case of Corona in their hands
  The car door opens
  They hop in as quick as they can trying to not drop the yellow, blue & white boxes of beer
  The door closes and they drive off
  Leaving nothing but the sounds & the streak of their tires
  The light turns green and we drive off minding our own busy
  And continue having fun as long as the city lights shine.
