You got a fast car

I want a ticket to anywhere
我要的也不多，只想要一张车票，好让我离开这裡
Maybe we make a deal
也许我能跟着你吧
Maybe together we can get somewhere
也许我们会过得更好
Anyplace is better
反正去什麼地方，应该都比我家好
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
就算我们什麼都没有，不过穷者无惧
Maybe we'll make something
也许我们能创造出什麼来？
But me myself I got nothing to prove
