In the dark with the Oakland skyline
As I cross the city I avoid land mines
All I wanna do is make it through without dying
All I wanna do is keep on trying

Another night in the streets for me
Another night, no sanctuary
Another night, come and watch me bleed
Another night in the streets for me

She wouldn't move until the coast was clear
She always knew the final battle was near
If you have a bag of dope, she will give it up for free
If you got a song of hope it'll help her see

Another night in the streets for me
Another night, no sanctuary
Another night, come and watch me bleed
Another night in the streets for me

In the dark with the Oakland skyline
As I cross the city I avoid land mines
All I wanna do is make it through without dying
All I wanna do is keep on trying

Another night in the streets for me
Another night, no sanctuary
Another night, come and watch me bleed
Another night in the streets for me
