Say you thought your friends were tight with me
See them all running, they all want revenge
See them on the street, see them all around
Upset the system, gonna burn it down
Take a strike, fight back
Chance to save the day
Knockdown, drag-out, story’s all the same
Street fight tonight, whacha gonna do?
Someone’s always running up behind you
See them on the run with bullets in their head
See them all fighting, they all want revenge
You want a riot, you want to fight
New York City is ours tonight!
Take a strike, fight back
Chance to save the day
Knockdown, drag-out, story’s all the same
Street fight tonight, whatcha gonna do?
Someone’s always running up behind you
You better get ready, no time to mess around
You better get ready, ’cause there’s no backing down (speed ball)
You better get ready, no time to mess around
You better get ready, ’cause there’s no backing down
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
They all want revenge
