about

The Eagles, the city's second most powerful gang and main rival to the Cobras, continue their campaign to take the city street by street.

lyrics

MEMBER OF THE EAGLES:
This is a warning to the streets, we run this
Call to all arms, take aim, don't miss
Kiss every last lover because we take them away
We grow in the night and we study the day
Where can you hide and where will you run?
How will you see when we destroy the sun?
All bills move through us, all product
Meet the new bosses, the balance is fucked

LEADER OF THE EAGLES:
If there's a new product, then we're the new source
Drop a condo on your house like a motherfuckin' stork
Take your girl, move her near the Royal Fork
By the porno booths where we like to hold court
Snakeskin boots, we roll in troops
With a clubhouse like a chicken coop, here's the truth
Anything you see belongs to we
If it's under our wingspan it's in the plan

The plan is to expand on any plot of land
And demand our inheritance to community chest

We are the coins you flip aside to get my divine right at an amenable price
Hope you had a quite hospitable life
It's about to get tougher, better stay undercover
See us on the street and I suggest you burn rubber, bounce like flubber
You should really listen because eagle power's enough to bring back prohibition, yeah we'll ruin your condition
Handle liaisons, build the power plant with smokestacks like grey bongs

You don't wanna mess with big bird, yeah I heard
You're saying that we're preying on the neighbourhood you stay in
But we're really just taking the apple from you cavemen
Concerned with snake plan, get locked outta Eden
Even if you pay it, it don't mean that we're even
Stay in formation no matter the season
Low to the ground for despicable reasons
Slithering creatures should be held out for treason
Jesus, I hope that they're leaving

MEMBER OF THE EAGLES:
So now we reach and wrap our hands around what you hold loosely
And when we shake the towers down we map new borders clearly
We are recruiting, are you with us or against us?
So now take your gun and menace everyone

LEADER OF THE EAGLES:
Birds of a feather, yeah we do that thing
We take wing and run from the weather
We fly in rings as corporate kings
We're a gang but we stick together
Consider this a tete-a-tete
My set is dead set on wrecking your credibility and promoting your flying ability

Forced relocation is my actual passion
I got snakes on a plane like Samuel Jackson
Done with casual actions, you're in my sights
Life's like hell when you see the wing swell
And you realize your city isn't what it was once
Too much venom, poison love buzz
Wracked with pain, it's all from the way that you act
Watch me turn this display into whacking day, back away

You don't wanna see me and my crew in front of your watering hole, we'll bother your soul
Check me out, don't test, this is my nest
This is the official eagle anthem, flying on an airport you're scared report, see?
You listen, we see you shedding in the distance
What it do? What happened to that boy?

MEMBER OF THE EAGLES:
So now we reach and wrap our hands around what you hold loosely
And when we shake the towers down we map new borders clearly
We are recruiting, are you with us or against us?
So now take your gun and menace everyone
