Tough Love Lyrics

You got tough love on your side
And your eyes are open wide
A rebel with a cause
Where the sound tracks sirensAnd wrapped around the well, heart you hold
The mean streets won't catch you cold
Another story in the naked city
You got the cure where there's no pityWell, it's a soldier's battle zone
Take aim to prove you're not alone
No prisoners, no fugitivesAnd you're face to face with victory
Heart's like a world, you come to say
The kamikaze pilot crashes
As a phoenix rises from the ashesTough love, you're hard to beat
You're worth the fight, it hits you where it hurts
Oh, are you tough enough, tough enough
Tough love, you're hard to beatYou're worth the fight
Soul surrender to your heart
You're tough enough, tough enough
Take it up against the ropesI've been there where you hold your hopes

Where the fires of passion burns the waiting heart
We can break the red tape hustle
Now that's my kind of muscleThe stamina to end the runnin'
The armor when the night comes gunnin'
To steal your eyes with blind ambition
Beat you down with competitionYou got tough love on your side
When your eyes see red and on dead-end streets
And hunger feeds the heart that beats
My one-to-one drum clears my wayTough love, you're hard to beat
You're worth the fight, it hits you where it hurts
Oh, are you tough enough, tough enough
Tough love, you're hard to beatYou're worth the fight
Soul surrender to your heart
You're tough enough, tough enough
Take it up against the ropes
