Lyrics
People of New York
Crews of the city
Who rule dis madness?

Hey, boppers
At midnight
There's a gathering after dark
In Van Cortlandt Park
Hey, boppers
Cyrus needs five boroughs to see this through
This means you
Hey, boppers
The truce is on
No weapons but your fists, she insists
Hey boppers
Keep your radio tuned tight

Time it just right
And you just might
Survive the night (survive the night)

Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah
Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah

Boogie down
Who's steppin' bright for the Bronx?

This is the sound of something being born
From the ashes 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

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)

Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to (catching air like a plane outta JFK)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (it's Queens, seen?)

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 brrap on sight, ya dig?

The wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight (survive the night)
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrap on sight (survive the night)
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrap on sight (Warriors, come out to)
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrap on sight (play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to (it's island time in the city)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (the island of 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

Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (survive the night)
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (survive the night)
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)

Survive the armies of the night

Warriors, come out to (time come for the clan)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (from Staten)

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

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?

Takin' a train to a boat to another train? (Survive the night)
Takin' a train to a boat to another train? (Survive the night)
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)

Damn

Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to (Brooklyn, tell the people)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (stand up and shine)

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

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 (survive the night)
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)

Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-yeah
