Fear Keep The Faith 1992 (JBJ)

I see you looking over your shoulder,
Tell me who do you think’s out there.
You’re reaching for your four leaf clover,
But baby there ain’t no luck down there.

I swear that there’s no heart in this city,
It’s here the slogan reads “Do your time”.
Everybody’s doing their sentance,
It’s just there ain’t nobody, who knows just what’s the crime.

I watched my father live and die here, I’d rather die than fade away.
I read the rules and yeah I know them,
Still you ain’t ever gonna make me play the game of fear, fear, fear.

Running with the rats in this city,
Makes you feel like you’re a partner in crime.
Girl once you were young and pretty, won’t stop and watch that little girl die.

Hey baby won’t you stop and hear me,
Just being here we’re breathing heart attacks.
We can run and chase the setting sun,
We can run and we won’t ever look back.

Take my hand I know we’ll make it,
I’ll let nothing slow us down,
I know you want to curse this place,
But there’s only one thing stopping us now it’s fear, fear, fear.
Of new things, fear, fear, fear, of the brass ring.

You ain’t one for taking chances.
You work and you live and breathe 9 to 5.
Still that’s what you call living, man that’s surviving to me.
And surviving is living to die in fear, fear, fear.
Of the new things, fear, fear, fear, of the brass ring.
