Even the night air was like a blow dryer
so in the daytime he would stick to the canyons
between the buildings where the anomie is enough to send you reeling
but in the evening he found a scene where that didn't matter
Maybe 200 people and some old amplifiers
and when he was among them he was someone at last
Among this little scene people recognized the mind of a poet
and a prophet with some wisdom of the world
I'm at war with the liars
I'm at war the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
I'm at war with the liars
I'm at war the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
Go!

The other side of this glorious life
was the true credibility of being dirt poor
You can't get a job if you can't get a shower
besides there's no fucking grandeur in being a slave
So his favorite transgression was big overstocked stoors
It seem much less harm than robbing of the poor
It's not up to us to question the way he lived
but i have a huge problem with the way that he died
I'm at war with the liars
I'm at war the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all i want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
I'm at war with the liars
I'm at war the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all i want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
ย
Some say, one evening he was caught in alley
with his namesake in one hand and a new pup in his coat
The cops shot him in the face
They said he was armed
He's just a scared kid holding a hacksaw
I'm at war the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
I'm at war liars
I'm at war with the thieves
I'm at war with all this hatred and all I want is peace
But I can't find the truth, there's politics to these streets
There's a cop in everyone of us and I'm an urchin thief
ย
Just another street kid, wasn't worth a thing
Nothing more to see, just go on with your day
Listen late at night you'll hear the streets ring
The sum of all this conflict and all he had to say was
"All I Want Is Peace!"
