These Damn Streets

Verse 1 Boots on the pavement (HEY! HEY!) Hands in the air (HEY! HEY!) Scars don’t fade, they just prove we’re there, We were born to run, we were born to tear. Pre-Chorus Tear it up (HEY!), don’t hold me down (HEY!), Raise your voice (HEY!) when they shut us out, We’re the noise they can’t contain (HEY!), Every shout’s a mark we’ve made! Chorus These damn streets (HEY!) they know my name, These damn streets (HEY!) won’t play their game, Every wall, I’ll paint it proud, I was never meant to fade in the crowd. These damn streets (HEY!) they set me free, These damn streets (HEY!) can’t cage me, I’ll break the rules, I’ll claim my ground— These damn streets (HEY!) they’re mine right now! Verse 2 Sirens in the distance (HEY! HEY!) We don’t hide (HEY! HEY!) Every shadow’s just a stage tonight, Every chord’s a fist that’s raised to fight. Pre-Chorus Tear it up (HEY!), don’t hold me down (HEY!), Raise your voice (HEY!) when they shut us out, We’re the noise they can’t contain (HEY!), Every shout’s a mark we’ve made! Chorus These damn streets (HEY!) they know my name, These damn streets (HEY!) won’t play their game, Every wall, I’ll paint it proud, I was never meant to fade in the crowd. These damn streets (HEY!) they set me free, These damn streets (HEY!) can’t cage me, I’ll break the rules, I’ll claim my ground— These damn streets (HEY!) they’re mine right now! Bridge (Call & Response) We won’t stop! (NO!) We won’t fall! (NO!) We’re the writing (HEY!) on the wall! Final Chorus (Explosive) These damn streets (HEY!) they know my name, These damn streets (HEY!) won’t play their game, Every wall, I’ll paint it proud, I was never meant to fade in the crowd. These damn streets (HEY!) they set me free, These damn streets (HEY!) can’t cage me, I’ll break the rules, I’ll claim my ground— These damn streets (HEY!) they’re mine right now! Outro (Gang Vocals / Chant) These damn streets! (HEY!) These damn streets! (HEY!) These damn streets! (HEY!) They’ll never take from me!
