Life down here ain't always pretty
The candy coat fades away
The real world is out to get you
And the toughest get their way
Out in the streets
The pain is real
Out in the streets
Kicked in the face
Out in the streets
Nobody wants you
In the streets
Live for today
No justice, there's no mercy
No one asks, play the game
You've got no choice, and then they're on you
You have to learn, or die in vain
Out in the streets
The pain is real
Out in the streets
Kicked in the face
Out in the streets
Nobody wants you
In the streets
Live for today
It all goes by so slowly
And never ever fades away
You think you're the one and only
And then you hear them, hear them say
(Solo)
It all goes by so slowly
And never ever fades away
You think you're the one and only
And then you hear them, hear them say
Out in the streets
The pain is real
Out in the streets
Kicked in the face
Out in the streets
Nobody wants you
In the streets
Live for today
Foolish dreams come too easy
And they almost never stay
You might find out, or just go crazy
But you'll never walk away
Out in the streets
The pain is real
Out in the streets
Kicked in the face
Out in the streets
Nobody wants you
In the streets
Live for today
Out in the streets
The pain is real
Out in the streets
Kicked in the face
Out in the streets
Nobody wants you
In the streets
Live for today...oh yeah
