I was born with rock in my heart

No one walks these dirty streets,
where hooded shadows control the beat,
motorcycles outside my door
Sirens take the night and I ask for more.
Concrete and steel hold these fragile elite,
an eye for an eye just confirms my belief,
 
I was born with rock in my heart
And I stand up when the music starts
Kick off your shoes and stomp your feet
Check my pulse to feel that beat
 
Ring stained mattress bare wood floor
my eyes roll back as she fakes for more
The music stops me from shouting out,
I need you now and that was never in doubt.
Stomach turns with a need for food,
all I want is cigarettes and booze.
 
I was born with rock in my heart
And I stand up when the music starts
Kick off your shoes and stomp your feet
Check my pulse to feel that beat

AcDc esk song lyric

I did this as a colab with a talented musician Richard Hanyu who writes and plays all the music, it needed some lyrics that I wrote and then he foolishly asked me to sing :)
I dont do youtube but here is the soundcloud link if you fancy a listen.
