I'm from the streets of New York, where the hustlers roam The city that never sleeps, where we grind and we own I'm the dog in the game, bark loud, bite hard I'm the king of the jungle, watch me play my card Raised in the gutter, where the struggle is real But I never back down, I got that iron will From the Bronx to Brooklyn, I rep my city Ain't nobody gonna stop me, ain't nobody gonna pity I walk these streets with my head held high I'm a warrior, a survivor, I never say die I'm the voice of the voiceless, the hope of the hopeless I'm the spirit of New York, the heart of the city, the focus I spit fire on the mic, I bring the heat I'm the one they fear, I'm the one they can't defeat I'm DMX, the king of the East Coast I'm the beast unleashed, I'm the one they fear the most
