[Verse 1] Cobblestone cracks where the rain pools black Northern Quarter backstreets, no turning back Red brick towers and the trams roll past City's got a pulse that's built to last Tracksuit and trainers, we move in packs Corner shop lights flicker, count the stacks From Moss Side to Piccadilly's glow This concrete heart's the only home I know [Pre-Chorus] Bassline drops when the sun goes down Every postcode claims their crown We don't sleep, we don't fold Manchester blood runs cold [Chorus] Wild Manchester nights, we're alive in the chaos Jungle drums hit, feel the breakbeat save us 808s shake the ground where we stand This is our city, our wild, our land Wild Manchester nights, no rules, no mercy Rain-soaked streets but the fire's still thirsty From the warehouse raves to the dawn's first light We own these wild Manchester nights [Verse 2] Warehouse windows smashed, graffiti tags Sound system stacked in abandoned flats Underground kings with a mic and a dream Grime in our veins, we're a ruthless machine Canal paths echo with the sirens' scream But we keep moving, chasing that gleam From Salford docks to the Etihad roar We're the ones they warned you about before [Pre-Chorus] Bassline drops when the sun goes down Every postcode claims their crown We don't sleep, we don't fold Manchester blood runs cold [Chorus] Wild Manchester nights, we're alive in the chaos Jungle drums hit, feel the breakbeat save us 808s shake the ground where we stand This is our city, our wild, our land Wild Manchester nights, no rules, no mercy Rain-soaked streets but the fire's still thirsty From the warehouse raves to the dawn's first light We own these wild Manchester nights [Bridge] No sleep till the speakers blow Rapid-fire flow, let the whole world know From Hacienda ghosts to the new wave scene We built this sound from the in-between Breakbeat soldiers, we march as one The night's not over till we see the sun [Chorus] Wild Manchester nights, we're alive in the chaos Jungle drums hit, feel the breakbeat save us 808s shake the ground where we stand This is our city, our wild, our land Wild Manchester nights, no rules, no mercy Rain-soaked streets but the fire's still thirsty From the warehouse raves to the dawn's first light We own these wild Manchester nights [Outro] Rain keeps falling but we never drown This is Manchester, this is our sound Wild till the end, wild till we're gone The city's heartbeat keeps pushing on
