24-7 Spyz

24-7 Spyz (pronounced "twenty-four-seven spies") are a band from the South Bronx, New York, formed in 1986, originally consisting of Jimi Hazel (real name, Wayne K. Richardson) (guitar), Rick Skatore (real name, Kenneth D. Lucas) (bass), Kindu Phibes (drums), and P. Fluid (real name, Peter Forrest) (vocals).

Break the chains
Crazy ways on the streets, its a freak show
Times have changed since I was day one old
There he lies on the ground with his torn up clothes
Gotta help this man but he is not alone

There got to be a way, that's what I say to myself
But if I try too hard, I'm right back on that shelf
You give and give and give, you think you've won this race
People crying - people dying, seems like its lost in space

[Chorus]
Break the chains! Of this freak show, ah
Clear my brains, I can't take no more, yeah
Break the chains! Of this freak show, da da ra ra
Clear my brains, I can't take no more

Crazy ways on the streets its a freak show
Times have change since I was day one old
There he stands with no hope, and his pride in chains
Gotta help this man because his souls in pain

There's got to be a way, that's what I say to myself
But if I try too hard, I'm right back on that shelf
You give and give and give, you think you've won this race
People crying, people dying, seems like its lost in space

There's got to be a way,

[Chorus]

Break the chains! Of this freak show
Clear my brains! I can't take no more
