Lyrics

Don't Wanna Fight

[Verse 1]

Walking down your street with your switchblade in your waist

Everyone you meet, threatening to cut their face

Wild West frontier just like hanging out on your estate

All you know is fear, but you'll never show it on your face

[Chorus]

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more

[Verse 2]

Yeah I've seen your girl, yeah she's beautiful

And your baby boy, yeah he looks just like you

Spent time inside, never knew the kid till he turned two

What hope for him if he ends up just like you?

[Chorus]

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more

[Verse 3]

Where you gonna go when the policeman he say "come"?

Where you gonna turn when they take away your son?

What good's a life if it's always on the run?

What good's a knife when you're staring down the barrel of a gun?

[Chorus]

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more

I don't wanna fight no more, no more, no more, no more
