Mean Streets

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Raised up with two kinds of people The good ones and the bad I was taught from early on The only choice I had Now I see, it's clear to me What was in the plan Had to walk the walk and talk the talk And try to be a man I swear the wind took me away But now I'm here again today, yeah [Chorus] I'm back on the mean streets Oh, it's the only thing I know Never change me, it was born in my soul And it don't take much to make me mad Push me a little and I bring back I've a mean streak, oh Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets [Verse 2] Somebody stole my money I heard a brother say Used to we'd fight it out That was yesterday Just because you're packing son Don't make you a man If you shoot to kill, what's the thrill Why don't you understand Each time I walk outside my door We need a change and that's for sure [Chorus] I'm back on the mean streets Oh, it's the only thing I know Never change me, it was born in my soul And it don't take much to make me mad Push me a little and I bring back I've a mean streak, oh Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets [Verse 3] Do you ever think about where you're goin'? Have you ever thought about where you've been? Will you ever pass this way again? There's a fear and you know it But inside, you can't show it No where for you to run and hide [Chorus] I'm back on the mean streets Oh, it's the only thing I know Never change me, it was born in my soul And it don't take much to make me mad Push me a little and I bring back I've a mean streak, oh Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets I'm back on the mean streets Oh, it's the only thing I know Never change me, it was born in my soul And it don't take much to make me mad Push me a little and I bring back I've a mean streak, oh Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets
