Lin Manuel Miranda - Survive The Night Feat Eisa Davis Lyrics

People of New York!
Crews of the city!
Who rule dis madness?

Hey boppers!
At midnight
There's a gathering after dark
In Van Cortlandt Park

Hey boppers!
Cyrus needs five boroughts to see this through
This means you

Hey boppers!
The truce is on
No weapons but your fists, she insists
Hey boppers!
Keep your radio tuned tight
Time it just right
And you just might
Survive the night! (Survive the night!)

Warriors, come out to playayayayeah

Survive the armies of the night

Warriors, come out to playayayayeah

Boogie Down! Who's steppin' bright for the Bronx?

This is the sound of something being born
From the ashes of the Bronx
The siren squeals and the car horn honks
Across the cross Bronx
And what the Bronx wants
Is not a combative retaliatory response
It's a Renaissance
With Cyrus tellin' the truth
Underrepresented youths
An unprecedented truce (don't shoot)
Crews travel to the park
And miracles can happen
When we gather in the dark

Miracles can happen
When we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen
When we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen
When we gather in the dark
Miracles can happen
When we gather in the dark

Survive the night
Survive the armies of the night

Warriors, come out to playayayayeah

Catching air like a plane outta JFK, it's Queens, seen?

Queens gambit: Pawns out, control the center
Annex Astoria, let no man enter
Across the East river
A stormcloud is gatherin'
War crowds are travelin' northbound
And rather than
Packin' heat or attackin'
We actually seein' traction
But is Cyrus attractin' police action?
'Cause you could do 99 things right
Meet the wrong cop at night, and it's brrrap on sight, ya dig?

The wrong cop at night
And it's brrrap on sight
Meet the wrong cop at night
And it's brrrap on sight
Meet the wrong cop at night
And it's brrrap on sight
Meet the wrong cop at night
And it's brrrap on sight

Survive the night
Survive the armies of the night

Warriors, come out to playayayayeah

It's island time in the city, the island of Manhattan

Uh-oh, Manhattan's on the scene
When you say New York we're actually what you mean
You wanna be a part of it, the cream of the crop
Get the best of everything, skim the cream off the top
Now Cyrus has a military, true run crew
It rivals with the finest from the 2-1-2
The Bible says to do 'em as you'd have 'em do unto
But survival all depends upon the corner you run to

Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (survive the night)
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (warriors, come out to)
Survival all depends upon the corner you run to (play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

Survive the armies of the night
Warriors, come out to (time come for the clan)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (from Staten)

Ghostface, from the rough streets of Shaolin
Runnin' through Manhattan where the blocks is wildin'
Been down when Futura bomb trains, a night thing
Fat caps on Krylon cans, it be my liking

So how do we make it back home alive
When we gotta leave our crib at 9:45
For a midnight meeting, word up, what a fuckin' pain
Takin' a train to a boat to another train?

Takin' a train to a boat to another train? (Survive the night)
Takin' a train to a boat to another train?
Takin' a train to a boat to another train? (Warriors, come out to)
Takin' a train to a boat to another train? (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

Damn!

Survive the armies of the night

Warriors, come out to (Brooklyn, tell the people)
Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah (stand up and shine)

B-B-Brooklyn underground lookin' like the United Nations
East Flatbush Jamaicans be packin' these subway stations
Sunset park Asians to Cobble Hill Caucasians
Far Rockaway to Bay Ridge, the borough is here to stay, bitch!
Head north to the Bronx and properly greet our highness
Streets are behind Cyrus, message spreadin' like a virus
The south end of the line is Coney Island's most notorious
Clap your hands if you’re ready to meet the Warriors!

Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the Warriors! (Survive the night)
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the Warriors!
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the Warriors! (Warriors, come out to)
Clap your hands if you're ready to meet the Warriors! (Play-ay-ay-ay-yeah)

Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-yeah

Roll call!
