[Verse 1]
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
Oh, yeah!
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
And I can't let it go
Alone in the night, I know I must fight for my home
[Chorus]
Time has changed the seasons
And I 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
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
What's become of us, friends, we were one till 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
[Pre-Chorus]
And I can't let it go
Alone in the night, I know I must fight for my home
[Chorus]
Time has changed the seasons
And 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
