Third Strike Lyrics

[Verse 2]
Yo rock what you got. Block what you shot
Another chapter and what you get is what you got
'Nuff warriors here to fight, choose one
The best of the best will be the champion
Whose world is this after all?

Capcom living with LockDown forever y'all
This contains scenes of violence and death”
Viewer discretion, some ain't ready yet

If a pack they ain't ready step up with all you got
With the fighters who ain't ready take your regular
Spot
So what? Come down before it's too late to stop
Tryin to front like you was kids of the block
Step too close kid you might get shot
Only one master's goin straight to the top
One false move your whole game gets blocked
Only one master's goin straight to the top

[Verse 3]
Yeah, yo
You're about to get your life with something you wish
You wouldn't
It's too late, you gotta borrow what you wish you
Couldn't
Pass the first stage, you thought you could live it
Now you just realized you never could survive it
Dealin' with cold blooded assassinators
Decapitate your body give the food to alligators
You needa put your power over here it's much greater
It's either you push start or try again later
It's all about the confidence bet they don't cater
You got no time to talk to the player haters
I guess one fly kick would leave your body critical
Talkin bout real street thugs and big criminals
Now you're helpless all the way to the finish
Where you can practice, come back and get with it
You can't bite my hits, the sky's no limit
Anything distant yo it's Infinite

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

“Third Strike” by Infinite is the song that plays on the intro for the Capcom fighting game, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, mainly the chorus looped over again, much similar to another song from the soundtrack, “Let’s Get It On”

Arcade machines at the time could only hold so much space, so this song had to compressed and shortened to free up space for the actual game, the full version only being in the game in the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions.
