There s not a street that you can walk 
You ve got to watch just who you re talking to 
They re out to get you 
Can t turn your back on a smiling face 
Next thing you know, there ain t no trace of you 
And this I bet you 
Some people lose and some folks win 
It s a matter of what they do 

Chorus: 
Are you man enough? 
Big and bad enough? 
Are you gonna let em shoot your down? 
When the evil flies and your brother cries 
Are you gonna be around? 
Someone needs a friend 
Just around the bin 
Don t you think you should be there? 
Are you man enough 
when the going s rough? 

There s not pretending it goes away 
With every step that you take you pay your dues 
And I ain t lying 
You got to struggle to see the light 
Cause someone s looking to steal your right to choose 
And they don t stop trying 
It s like a jungle outside the door 
And it s keeping you so confused 

Chorus 

Gotta keep your eye on the passersby 
Better watch your step! 
Cause you never know when the knife will go 
And they ain t missed yet 
The strong survive 
They stay alive 
They re always cool 
But that they never teach you in school 

Chorus (twice, fade on second)
