[Verse 1] Concrete jungle is burning bright Red and blue flickering in the night You got a blade in your pocket, a fire in your eye Looking for a reason, looking for a lie Stop that noise, drop that steel Tell me brother, how does it feel? [Chorus] It's too hot, way too hot Cool it down before you hit the spot It's too hot, way too hot The street is crying, like it or not (Brass riff) [Verse 2] Empty pockets and a heavy head Living on the edge, wishing you were fed But violence ain't the rhythm, hate ain't the beat Don't let the anger take over the street Check your watch, check your mind Leave that shadow far behind Cool it down! Easy now! [Chorus] It's too hot, way too hot Cool it down before you hit the spot It's too hot, way too hot The street is crying, like it or not
