STREET BY STREET

You wanted company?
Look who showed up.

YEAH!

Same road, new mood, soles on the concrete
You were talking real loud, now you're underneath me
Cracks in your grin, got a bend like a cheap shot
I can read the whole thing from the place that my feet drop

Throw another hill, put your shoulder in the way
I've been getting acquainted with the weight all day
Now the crew rolls deep through the kick and the snare
Every voice in the track puts a fist in the air

RIGHT HERE!
COME GET IT!

Let me get a piece of that, move, let me through
Got a mouthful of thunder and a different point of view
You can drag that straight till it slips out of sight
I'ma break it into pieces by the pools of streetlight

One block, next block, hear the whole pack answer
Bass comes heavy with a back-alley swagger
Guitar cuts in like it heard somebody talking
Now the whole damn track's got the pavement rocking

STREET BY STREET, WE TAKE IT BACK
SOLE BY SOLE, WE MAKE IT CRACK
YOU BRING THE WEIGHT, WE BRING THE SOUND
LET THE WHOLE BLOCK KNOW WHO'S COMING ROUND

There's a turn up ahead with a mean little lean
And a long uphill wearing that same old sneer
All right, I see you, got a trick in the sleeve
Put the pressure on the rhythm, hear the whole thing breathe

I don't throw every word at the very same spot
Let a line hang back, let the next one drop
Then the third voice enters where you thought there was space
Now we're coming from the left and the right of the bass

LEFT!
RIGHT!
ALL SIDES!

STREET BY STREET, WE TAKE IT BACK
SOLE BY SOLE, WE MAKE IT CRACK
YOU BRING THE WEIGHT, WE BRING THE SOUND
LET THE WHOLE BLOCK KNOW WHO'S COMING ROUND

You had the incline, I had the grip—

You threw the corner, I leaned into it—

You stretched the distance, we filled it with noise—

NOW EVERY FOOTSTEP'S GOT A WHOLE CREW'S VOICE!

Bring that weight—

Let the bass bite—

One more round—

LIGHT UP THE NIGHT!

STREET BY STREET, WE TAKE IT BACK
SOLE BY SOLE, WE MAKE IT CRACK
YOU BRING THE WEIGHT, WE BRING THE SOUND
LET THE WHOLE BLOCK KNOW WHO'S COMING ROUND

Talk all you want.
You felt every step.
