When you walkin da streets its like you walkin a jungle
keep ya eyes open, keep to yaself n neva stumble
its a battlefiled, and all you got is gun n ya kife
n whateva else that can protect ya from losin ya life
you gotta fight to survive, you gotta stick to ya crew
you gotta watch eachothers back, n dat shit is da truth
Bloods and Crips, North and South, East and West
theres plenty of competition wen tryna be the best
we all wanna rise to da top, there aint no question
but as we fightin to do it, theres jus mass destruction
it aint no different than bombimg countries for oil
cuz in the end, we all fightin for riches and spoils
but like most battles, u gotta fight for ya freedom
or find yaself stripped of all ya rights and agreements
you gotta work real hard..try to maintain ya composure
cuz without it, you gonna fail in life as a street soldier
The streets is a battlefield an untamed war site
Niggas is rippin off track like a mother fuckin whore fight
Its war right? So livin like a coward just wont suffice
In the heat of the moment its hard enough to think once but twice
Impossible....If you wanna keep your life
Gotta learn to hold your own gotta learn to survive
yeah the streets is cold and war is like ice
Life is so chilling that even the sun cant ignite
Both streets and war force you to learn how to fight
Cept in war there aint none left so you gotta go right
Streets and war are two-faced turn they back in an instance
Aint no room for trust or you gets tricked like magicians
Stand tall like a tree aint no hopes in bendin me
streets and war got similarities like in both kill the enemy
Both are alike in take advantages to rise up yourself
Just like a battlefield the streets dont offer mercy or help
