We were at school and were growing up side by side
Up in your room, you showed me your collection of knives
And the porn printed in black and white
Big muscle boys and five foot girls shot from behind
And my brother had it right
Never backed down an inch in his life
Quick to the blade when he saw a face he didn't like
He said no one's gonna help you climb
You'd better help yourself and I couldn't deny it
Who knows what goes on in a young man's mind
It's ride or die
Who knows what goes on in a young man's mind
You were 12 years old when your dad went down
He'd been in the army and it put his shit right
Spent his week on the weights getting ready for a fight
Looking for a weakling to put down on Friday night
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna go out, go out tonight
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna go out, go out tonight
Who knows what goes on in a young man's mind
It's ride or die
Who knows what goes on in a young man's mind
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna go out, go out tonight
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna take a weapon and go out tonight
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna go out, go out tonight
Not gonna run for the rest of my life
I'm gonna take a weapon and go out tonight
