Say you thought your friends were tight with me 
See them [bad word]  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 [bad word] up behind you

See them on [bad word] with bullets in their head
See them all fighting, they all want revenge
You want a riot, you wanna 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, whacha gonna do?
Someone's [bad word] up behind you

You better get ready, no time to mess around
You better get ready, cuz there's no backing down (speedball)

You better get ready, no time to mess around
You better get ready, cuz there's no backing down
They all want revenge... (x8)
