Victory Tonight

We walk the streets after dark We bow to our opponents at the gate to the park We are the unknown faces of the street The deadliest crew you'll ever meet Our challengers yield in cowardice as we enter in a ring of fire To finally defeat us is their one desire Its simply a battle of territory and infinite game We represent with ink, scars, and not an ounce of shame This is our hood For these newbies it doesn't look good Frost bitten and slippin' on snow covered ice We don't care 'cuz they've done tried us twice Cowboy up and join the rodeo Can't earn your patch by just watchin' the show With the fire of fury we shall rise once again Not even winter's black ice shall do us in We came to win just one more fight We'll leave here in victory tonight
