[Intro]
Look out

[Verse 1]
Hey man, got to take a stand
So you think that you've been had?
Well, I'm here to bet you, street's going to get you
Two out of three ain't bad

Hey man, it's getting out of hand
Cross your heart and hope to die, yeah
You got yours, I got mine
I'm gonna get what's coming to you

[Chorus]
'Cause the street giveth, yeah
And the street taketh away
Where there's no blind justice, wow
No way (no way) that's right, ha

[Verse 2]
Now listen
Hey man, don't you understand?
You can run, but you can't hide
There ain't no life after death, so save your breath
You're gonna be a rock and roll suicide
Hey man, don't you need a hand?
I ain't no blessing in disguise
Feel the agony and the ecstasy
It's going to burn right through you

[Chorus]
'Cause the street giveth (oh yeah)
And the street taketh away
Where there's no blind justice, no no, no way
No way, ow

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge]
Life's too short
So help yourself
'Cause I don't walk on water

[Chorus]
('Cause the street giveth) Yeah
(And the street taketh away)
('Cause the street giveth) No blind justice, there's no blind justice, no
(And the street taketh away) Taketh away

('Cause the street giveth) It giveth away
(And the street taketh away) The street taketh away
('Cause the street giveth) So watch your ass, man
(And the street taketh away) Yeah, it taketh away
('Cause the street giveth) It giveth away
(And the street taketh away)
('Cause the street giveth)
(And the street taketh away)
