Lets show them the world what we've become
And together our backs can never be broken
It's a new breed of kids
Tomorrow may never come
The kids on the street'll have their say and this is our way
For the youth of America, free at last
Because I live for today
Lets show them the world what we've become
The kids on the street'll have their say and this is our way
You gotta live for today
The kids on the street will have their say now, because
The kids on the street'll have their say and this is our way
We work hard now lets enjoy the fruits of what we've done
Lets show 'em the world what we've become
The kids on the street will have their say now, because
You gotta live for today
But now our scene is alive
From the violence and destruction that destroyed our name
Tomorrow may never come
Whenever there was trouble we took the blame
Because I live for today
'Cause now our scene's alive
With a new generation of American kids
We work hard now lets enjoy the fruits of what we've done
We work hard now lets enjoy the fruits of what we've done
Only strong will survive
The kids on the street will have their say now, because
Brought together by a movement and a sense of tradition
Tomorrow may never come
We've had enough of these negative comparisons
Kids on the street'll have their say and this is our way
With a new generation of American kids
