People of New York!
Crews of the city!
Who rule dis madness?
Hey, boppers
At midnight
There's a gathering after dark
In Van Cortlandt Park
Hey, boppers
Cyrus needs five boroughs to see this through
This means you
Hey, boppers
The truce is on
No weapons but your fists, she insists
Hey, boppers
Keep your radio tuned tight
Time it just right
And you just might
Survive the night
Survive the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Boogie down! Who's steppin' bright for the Bronx?
This is the sound of something being born
From the ashes of the Bronx
The siren squeals and the car horn honks
Across the cross Bronx
And what the Bronx wants
Is not a combative retaliatory response
It's a renaissance, with Cyrus tellin' the truth
Underrepresented youths, an unprecedented truce
Don't shoot
Crews travel to the park
And miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Survive the night
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Survive the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Catching air like a plane outta JFK, it's Queens, seen?
Queens gambit, pawns out, control the center
Annex astoria, let no man enter
Across the East River, a storm cloud is gatherin'
War crowds are travelin' northbound, and rather than
Packin' heat or attackin', we actually seein' traction
But is Cyrus attractin' police action?
'Cause you could do ninety-nine things right
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight, ya dig?
The wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight
Survive the night
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight
Survive the night
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight
Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
It's island time in the city, the island of Manhattan
Uh-oh, manhattan's on the scene
When you say, "New York", we're actually what you mean
You wanna be a part of it, the cream of the crop
Get the best of everything, skim the cream off the top
Now Cyrus has a military, true run crew
It rivals with the finest from the 2-1-2
The Bible says to do 'em as you'd have 'em do unto
But survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survive the night
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survive the night
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survive the night, survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Time come for the clan from Staten
Ghostface, from the rough streets of Shaolin
Runnin' through Manhattan where the blocks is wildin'
Been down when Futura bomb trains, a night thing
Fat caps on Krylon cans, it be my liking
Now how do we make it back home alive
When we gotta leave our crib at 9:45
For a midnight meeting? Word up, what a ****in' pain
Takin' a train to a boat to another train
Takin' a train to a boat to another train?!
Survive the night
Takin' a train to a boat to another train?!
Survive the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Takin' a train to a boat to another train!?!
Takin' a train to a boat to another train?!?!?!
Damn!
Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Brooklyn, tell the people, stand up and shine
Brooklyn! Brooklyn! Brooklyn!
B-b-brooklyn underground lookin' like the United Nations!
East Flatbush Jamaicans be packin' these subway stations!
Sunset Park Asians to Cobble Hill Caucasians
Far Rockaway to Bay Ridge, the borough is here to stay, bitch!
Head north to the Bronx and properly greet our highness
Streets are behind Cyrus, message spreadin' like a virus
The south end of the line is Coney Island's most notorious
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the warriors!
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the warriors!
Survive the night
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the warriors!
Survive the night
Warriors, come out to playayayayeah
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the warriors!
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the warriors!
Warriors, come out to playayayeah
