Black, Andy - The Promise Lyrics
Livin' on the West Side born and raised
Made a deal with the devil found glory days
There's no way, that I'll stay
Drivin' down on Highway 75
Find some way, to escape
But we all find home
We all find home
Do you remember all the plans we made
Hope and prayin' for a better day
Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave
The promise that we both betrayed
The times we fought for everything
Tell me whatever happened to what I've become?
The pain I feel for where I'm from
Hanging from the cross on 50 West
You got a dream and a chance to run from this
I'm locked in, believin'
Drinkin' till I'm lost and giving it up
Another day another chance to test my luck
Way out there, they won't care
But we can't get out
We can't get out
Do you remember all the plans we made
Hope and prayin' for a better day
Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave
The promise that we both betrayed
And the songs we sang
The times we fought for everything
Tell me whatever happened to what I've become?
The pain I feel for where I'm from
In the city, I found my hope
I know, I feel it
My purpose, to end it
I can't go home
Do you remember all the plans we made
Hope and prayin' for a better day
Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave
The promise that we both betrayed
And the songs we sang
The times we fought for everything
Tell me whatever happened to what I've become?
The pain I feel for where I'm from
Do you remember all the plans we made
Hope and prayin' for a better day
Tell me whatever happened to the love we gave
The promise that we both betrayed

Black, Andy The Promise Comments
I love it 😍 from Hungary 2020
I wonder if Andy really made a deal with the devil.
Andy I'm from Ecuador, I admire you a lot, I don't know English but I try to translate your lyrics.
How I would like to meet you in person.
I am a fan of you, adept with your career. You're the best
kaya mo yan @jessie james calva
Wow, I just found this. I've been waiting for a torchbearer to Bruce for so long I think I may have found it.
Am 8 years old and love Andy and other grown up stuff sometimes I just think 🤔 am weird soo yea
That's cool kid, at least you have a good taste on music. Do you listen to black veil brides?
Awesome 😎 song andy keep it up 👍
Muchos prefieren el trap y reggaetón que poseen letras discriminatorias a la mujer y sin sentido, cuando Andy escribe letras que vienen del corazón y con sentido, y no necesita autotune para sonar perfecto
Anyone else getting a Meat Loaf vibe from this? Absolutely incredible song
I don't think he realizes how much he means to us
I identify with this song (and all of andy's) its lyrics reach my heart, its desire to leave his city and succeed elsewhere is something that I am also going through and somehow this song gives me hope ❤😊
bue,la canción tienen 1 parecido con el comienzo de Jesus of suburbia de Green day nO ESTOY DICIENDO QUE ES PLAGIO pero esta bien uwuwuwu
Sounds like nickleback
Come to Poland, Please! ❤️❤️❤️

2:20

I love that he mentioned 75 in this! It's such a staple highway in Ohio!

I'm crying because this fits my life perfectly.
Te amo <3
Es de lo mejor que he visto en mi vida.jpg
Andy should be a character on supernatural on the cw
I love this 🥀💖
I'm so in love with this song !!!
The intro sounds like Jesus of Suburbia?!
😍🎧 je kiffe
Great song. Why is the intro Jesus Of Suburbia by Green Day though?
Now this is music!!
Andy, thank you for always making genuine music that comes straight from the heart.
I didn't have anyone. But i promised to myself. I couldn't even keep it. Fuck.
it reminds me of a good friend, we're not the same, we fucked up this friendship..
Saw him live May 1st at Gramercy Theatre in New York City and 3 days later on May 4th i was him live again, this time at Asbury Lanes in New Jersey. And in between those concerts on May 3rd i saw Falling In Reverse (with CC from BVB drumming) live at Starland Ballroom in New Jersey. On May 4th Andy talked directly to me because i asked him a question, and on May 3rd Ronnie touched me twice, I crowdsurfed for the first time and spent the entire night over the security actually touching the stage
This song in super awesome
Awesome
This sounds like it could be off Mama Mia and I kinda like it
I remember I used to listen to bvb when I was in high school...their songs used to make feel so much better! And now after 3 years I'm here again listening to Andy and I have tears of nostalgia :') this man has improved so much ♥️♥️
Beautiful, it makes me so emotional. Andy always killin itttt!
I oddly relate to this song 🤘🏼
Your great voice always makes me feel happy love all your songs handsome can't stop loving you
Crying because of the lyrics. Feeling better because I know I'm not the only one going through this pain.
I loved his rebellic songs about growing up and the standards and all this things, since I'm in this age myself, going trough puberty.
But I also love his new songs, the deep, adult side full of stories with background. This side shows me that I can become something inspirational and beautiful as long as I don't give up.
Amazing job, Andy. You taught me how to survive society and standards, now you're teaching me how to grow up and become better.
I love u
Saw him live last night at Asbury Lanes and live this past Wedensday night at Gramercy Theater in New York City, the second was way better than the first, BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE, ANDY TALKED DIRECTLY TO ME LAST NIGHT
Ameii <3
I'm on my way to my second Andy Black concert right now as I'm writing this, my first time seeing him was this past Wednesday night
0:29 the made a deal with the devil huh sounds like Andy's taking inspiration from his movie American Satan
Andy has some hits and misses with his solo stuff but this song is a home run.
This is really fucking good
I SAW HIM LIVE LAST NIGHT AT GRAMERCY THEATER IN NEW YORK CITY, BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!
Same for the show I went to. I wish I could turn back time to relive that night! 😭
I'm seeing Andy tonight and I'm prepared for tears.
Is sad 😭 but so beautiful I like it
This was a great birthday present just come home and boom new Andy Black song
I don't care if I'm leaving this comment a month later then it was released hehe
great song, I like the piano intro
This was published a day after my birthday
I'm not ashamed to admit I love that saxophone at the end.
I found my twin since 2014
🖤🖤🖤🤘🏻😢
This album is so good even my mom loves it!
OK this is beautifully amazing I LOVE IT!
Why the heck isn't he performing this song on his current tour? It's good!
this song means so much to me cause i have to leave my best friend cause im moving and in doing so im breaking our promise to never leave each other
@Chantrea Jeffery awwww I'm sorry
Damn, Andy hit the feels on this one
Andy is SO handsome.
If it hadn't been for Andy Black and Black Veil Brides, suicide would've gotten the best of me...
Btw this song is really nice :)
PhoenixCore TV same! I listen to stuff like Motionless in White, Bring Me The Horizon just music like that and people always say that’s why I’m depressed but I just tell them that the meaning in the lyrics is why I’m still alive
I can so relate to this song rn :(
he's in my city tonight but i can't go
So reminiscent of Springsteen. Thematically, the reference to Glory Days, the piano throughout the song and especially the saxophone at the end. True rock n’ roll.
I love how this song doesn't necessarily have to be about a relationship but can actually be what you want it to mean, depending on how you feel
💕💕💕💕💕
Lmao THIS SONG LITERALLY SUMS UP MY LIFE 😂💕.
JESUS Andy I love your Vocals and just everything bout you 💕
I love it!
The way that the introduction to the album transitions into this song.... just. Wow. Blew me away.
The fact that Ashton Irwin help with this song uugh my heart
Man i'm fucking crying i love this song
My favourite song in this album!❤❤💕💞
Mood: Crying in spanish
I’m so excited for his album tomorrow.
Made a deal with the devil? Come on dude...u are to beautiful for that.
Please bless us with covering *”Can’t Help Falling Inlove”* by Elvis. 🙏🏻
It's seen that Ashton Irwin wrote the lyrics of this song
Ela Mizuła Ashton played drums on it, as he did on some of the songs on the first Andy Black album, The Shadow Side. Andy writes the lyrics to all of his solo project songs and the songs for his band, Black Veil Brides.
the only sbeve song I would listen to
Finally found it! Heard this on the radio a couple of weeks ago and had to hear it again!
I was in the mood to have sex now just wanna go out at night with my bf and our friends ..
❤❤❤❤❤
YALL! HIS BAND BLACK VEIL BRIDES IS REMASTERING THEIR FIRST ALBUM SOON!!!!
I love this!
A 21st century masterpiece
Seeing this fantastic specimen 3 days after I turn 17 with my best friend. So. Fucking. Hyped.
