Survive The Night Lyrics

[DJ LYNNE PEN, spoken]
People of New York
Crews of the city
Who rule dis madness?

[DJ LYNNE PEN]
Hey boppers
At midnight
There’s a gathering after dark
In Van Cortlandt Park

[DJ & CLEON]
Hey boppers
Cyrus needs five boroughs to see this through
This means you

[DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Hey boppers
The truce is on
No weapons but your fists, she insists
Hey boppers
Keep your radio tuned tight

[DJ]
Time it just right
And you just might
Survive the night (Survive the night)
[CLEON & SWAN]
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah

[DJ]
Survive the armies of the night

[CLEON & SWAN]
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah

[In response to the DJ’s call, legendary MCs represent the gangs across all five boroughs who are traveling to CYRUS’s solidarity meeting uptown.]

[DJ, spoken]
Boogie down
Who’s steppin’ bright for the Bronx?

[THE BRONX]
This is thе sound of something being born
From the ashеs of the Bronx
The siren squeals and the car horn honks
Across the Cross Bronx
And what the Bronx wants
Is not a combative retaliatory response
It’s a renaissance
With Cyrus tellin’ the truth
Underrepresented youths
An unprecedented truce (Don’t shoot)
Crews travel to the park
And miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
[ALL GANGS, DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark (Survive the night)
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark (Warriors, come out to)
Miracles can happen when we gather in the dark (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

[CLEON & SWAN, DJ, spoken]
Warriors, come out to (Catching air like a plane outta JFK)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (It’s Queens, seen?)

[QUEENS]
Queens gambit; pawns out, control the center
Annex Astoria, let no man enter
Across the East River, a storm cloud is gatherin’
War crowds are travelin’ northbound, and rather than
Packin’ heat or attackin’, we actually seein’ traction
But is Cyrus attractin’ police action?
‘Cause you could do ninety-nine things right
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it’s brrrap on sight, ya dig?

[ALL GANGS, DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
The wrong cop at night, and it’s brrrap on sight (Survive the night)
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it’s brrrap on sight
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it’s brrrap on sight (Warriors, come out to)
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it’s brrrap on sight (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)
[DJ]
Survive the armies of the night

[CLEON & SWAN, DJ, spoken]
Warriors, come out to (It’s island time in the city)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (The island of Manhattan)

[MANHATTAN]
Uh-oh, Manhattan’s on the scene
When you say “New York” we’re actually what you mean
You wanna be a part of it, the cream of the crop
Get the best of everything, skim the cream off the top
Now Cyrus has a military, true run crew
It rivals with the finest from the 2-1-2
The Bible says to do ’em as you’d have ’em do unto
But survival all depends upon the corner you run to

[ALL GANGS, DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (Survive the night)
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (Warriors, come out to)
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

[DJ]
Survive the armies of the night

[CLEON & SWAN, DJ, spoken]
Warriors, come out to (Time come for the clan)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (From Staten)

[STATEN ISLAND #1]
Ghostface, from the rough streets of Shaolin
Runnin’ through Manhattan where the blocks is wildin’
Been down when Futura bomb trains, a night thing
Fat caps on Krylon cans, it be my liking

[STATEN ISLAND #2]
So how do we make it back home alive
When we gotta leave our crib at 9:45
For a midnight meeting, word up, what a fuckin’ pain
Takin’ a train to a boat to another train?

[ALL GANGS, DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Takin’ a train to a boat to another train? (Survive the night)
Takin’ a train to a boat to another train?
Takin’ a train to a boat to another train? (Warriors, come out to)
Takin’ a train to a boat to another train? (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

[STATEN ISLAND #1]
Damn!

[DJ]
Survive the armies of the night

[CLEON & SWAN, DJ, spoken]
Warriors, come out to (Brooklyn, tell the people)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (Stand up and shine)

[BROOKLYN]
B-B-Brooklyn underground lookin’ like the United Nations
East Flatbush Jamaicans be packin’ these subway stations
Sunset park Asians to Cobble Hill Caucasians
Far Rockaway to Bay Ridge, the borough is here to stay, bitch!
Head north to the Bronx and properly greet our highness
Streets are behind Cyrus, message spreadin’ like a virus
The south end of the line is Coney Island’s most notorious
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors!

[ALL GANGS, DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors! (Survive the night)
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors!
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors! (Warriors, come out to)
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors! (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

[CLEON & SWAN]
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah

[CLEON]
Roll call!
