Lyrics:

I was born and raised in the ghetto
Talk with me and youll know
I wasnt satisfied, with living on the side
I started looking around, for a possibility
Listen to my story, of what became of me

I met a businessman
Who said he had some friends back east
So why dont you come along
Well we can help you at least
Well make you into a big star
By playing your guitar
But the joke was on me
They left me flat to see

Going back west
Yes i know ill make out alright
Going back west
Where my musics playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think ill do alright

Going back west
Yes i know ill make out alright
Going back west
Where my musics playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think ill do alright

Struggling for recognition, identity and respect
I got a lot of promises
They told me not to fret
So we will stand by you
If the going gets rough
But when i started thinking
They didnt even bluff

bout a year has come and gone
And left me standing here
Thinking how it could have been
For still i aint nowhere
They surely took me for a ride
Trampled on my pride
But i hold my head up high
Got no more tears to cry

Going back west
Yes i know ill make out alright
Going back west
Where my musics playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think ill do alright

Going back west
Yes i know ill make out alright
Going back west
Where my musics playing all night
Going back west (going back west)
I think ill do alright

Going back west
Yes i know ill make out alright
Going back west
Where my musics playing all night
