The Killer Instinct Lyrics - The Killer Instinct - Black Star Riders

We all wear our hunger on our heart 

In the cold blooded academy of ghetto streets 

It ain't treason if it's a good reason 

We're only as real as the promises we keep 

The strength of the wolf lies in the pack 

And the loneliness can get you in trouble 

Let's go feed the vultures down in this concrete jungle 

There's a flag of inconvenience 

That flies above this town 

Where they build you up to touch the sky 

Before they bring you down 

You gotta live with a killer instinct 

You gotta die a little to survive 

You gotta love with a killer instinct 

You gotta hurt a little to get by 

The streets have burned since midnight 

There's tension in the air 

Another waste of time and life in another warlord's lair 

Just one more shot in the mainline 

Straighter than a preacher's dream 

All the animals come out at night 

It's a sundown primal scene 

There's a flag of inconvenience 

That flies above this town 

Where they build you up to touch the sky 

Before they bring you down 

You gotta live with a killer instinct 

You gotta die a little to survive 

You gotta love with a killer instinct 

You gotta hurt a little to get by 

There's no saints in the wild kingdom 

You gotta prowl like a beast of prey 

You gotta live with a killer instinct 

You gotta die a little everyday 

You gotta live with a killer instinct 

You gotta die a little to survive 

You gotta love with a killer instinct 

You gotta hurt a little to get by 

You gotta live with a killer instinct 

You gotta die a little to survive 

You gotta love with a killer instinct 

You gotta hurt a little to get by
