Bloodstreets

I was born on these streets Years ago I was the king of the neighborhood Fast on my feet I was elite I was the star of the show This task must be done I will not run I will not lay me down to die This war I will win so let it begin Deep in my heart is a burning fire I can't let it go Alone in the night I know I must fight for my home Time has changed the seasons And I will go on with no reason I feel my life slipping away These streets are getting colder And I am growing older Tomorrow seems so far away What's become of us friend we were one til the end Now I'm alone in the streetlight gleam This town knew our names but nothing's the same The places I played have forgotten the dream I can't let it go Alone in the night I know I must fight for my home Time has changed the seasons And I will go on with no reason I feel my life slipping away These streets are getting colder And I am growing older Tomorrow seems so far away
