a good man has gone
into the great beyond
straight edge or skinhead
often both at the same time
he had a good influence on many people“s lives

don’t forget the struggle
don’t forget the streets
don’t sell out
an open letter to the scene

and not everybody really likes him all the time
at the sunday matinee he filled the sky
to the dear departed, to the broken-hearted family
at the harcore funeral I cried and cried
for the passing of a hero on the Lower East Side

and not everybody really likes him all the time
at the sunday matinee he filled the sky

don’t forget the struggle
don’t forget the streets
don’t sell out
an open letter to the scene
