Street Beat Lyrics

LISTEN to the street beat
Hear the sound pound
Plug yo' ears, mask yo' fears
Something weird's goin' down

So listen to the street beat
Listen to the [?]
Listen OR I'LL KILL YA

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
