Streetcar Lyrics

Let me know
Do I still got time to grow?
Things ain't always set in stone
That be known let me know

Seems like streetlights glowing happen to be
Just like moments passing in front of me
So I hopped in the cab and I paid my fare
See, I know my destination, I'm just not there
All these streetlights glowing happen to be
Just like moments passing in front of me
So I hopped in the cab and I paid my fare
See, I know my destination, I'm just not there

In these streets
In these streets
I'm just not there in these streets
I'm just not there
Life just ain't fair

Seems like streetlights glowing happen to be
Just like moments passing in front of me
So I hopped in the cab and I paid my fare
See, I know my destination, I'm just not there
All these streetlights glowing happen to be
Just like moments passing in front of me
So I hopped in the cab and I paid my fare
See, I know my destination, I'm just not there

In these streets
In these streets
I'm just not there in these streets
I'm just not there
Life just ain't fair

The good Lord gives
The good Lord taketh away
That's how it goes
I don't know what else to say
The good Lord gives
The good Lord taketh away
That's how it goes
Don't go live your life in vain

What is the Meaning of Streetcar?

Navigating through life's uncertainties and complexities, the artist seeks reassurance of his potential for growth amid changing circumstances. The recurring imagery of streetlights and taxi rides symbolizes fleeting moments and journeys in life, emphasizing a sense of direction but not quite reaching the destination. This reflects his feelings of being 'not there' yet in his personal or professional journey. The song also addresses life's inherent unfairness and the acceptance of divine providence - the giving and taking away by the 'good Lord'. It ends with an advice against living life in vain, suggesting a call to value every moment. #LifeJourney #DivineProvidence
