I'm walking home Look over my shoulder The sound of my steps Echos in the dark People I meet Don't look them in the eyes, no Keep watching the street Do not stop and talk Oh I'd Better calm down Better calm down Better calm down I'd Better calm down Better calm down Better calm down There's no need to be terrified I'd better calm down Better calm down Fear is a curse Spreading like a fire Yeah fear is the street You no longer walk And if you still do it's like Walking on a wire Don't you fall off Cause nobody saw Oh I'd better calm down... But a family cries How can you calm each other When your boy lost his life? And we're walking home Don't look at one another And kids in the streets Start playing with knifes And this is our home Yeah this is our town Oh I'd better calm down...
