We all wear our hunger
on our heart
in the cold blooded
academy of ghetto streets
It ain't treason
if it's a good reason
We're only as real
as the promises we keep
The strength of the wolf
lies in the pack
And the loneliness
can get you in trouble
Let's go feed
the vultures
down in this
concrete jungle
There's a flag
of inconvenience
that flies above this town
Where they build you up
to touch the sky
before they bring
you down
You gotta live
with a killer instinct
You gotta die
a little to survive
You gotta love
with a killer instinct
You gotta hurt
a little to get by
The streets have burned
since midnight
There's tension
in the air
Another waste of time
and life in another
warlord's lair
Just one more shot
in the mainline
Straighter than
a preacher's dream
All the animals
come out at night
It's a sundown
primal scene
There's a flag
of inconvenience
that flies above this town
Where they build you up
to touch the sky
before they bring
you down
You gotta live
with a killer instinct
You gotta die
a little to survive
You gotta love
with a killer instinct
You gotta hurt
a little to get by
There's no saints
in the wild kingdom
You gotta prowl
like a beast of prey
You gotta live
with a killer instinct
You gotta die
a little everyday
You gotta live
with a killer instinct
You gotta die
a little to survive
You gotta love
with a killer instinct
You gotta hurt
a little to get by
You gotta live
with a killer instinct
You gotta die
a little to survive
You gotta love
with a killer instinct
You gotta hurt
a little to get by
