Here I come, rougher than the rest of them
The best of them, tougher than leather
You can call me Knuckles, unlike Sonic I don't chuckle
Ha, I'd rather flex my muscles
I'm hard as nails, it ain't hard to tell
I break 'em down whether they solid or frail
And unlike the rest I'm independent
since my first breath, first test
Feel the right then the worst left

Born on an island in the heavens
Thе blood of my ancestors flows inside me
My duty is to savе the flower
From evil deterioration

Ayy, said I will be the one to set your heart free true
Ayy, cleanse yourself from the evil spirit that's in you

Streaking lights, loud sounds, and instinct
Are the elements that keep me going
I am fighting my own mission
Nothing's gonna stand in my way, no

Said I will be the one to set your heart free true
Cleanse yourself from the evil spirit that's in you

Won't be frightened
I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy
This is my planet, gonna fight for my destiny

Here I come, rougher than the rest of them
The best of them, tougher than leather
You can call me Knuckles, unlike Sonic I don't chuckle
I'd rather flex my muscles
I'm hard as nails, it ain't hard to tell
I break 'em down whether they solid or frail
And unlike the rest I'm independent
since my first breath, first test
Feel the right then the worst left

I have no such things as weak spots
Don't approve of him, but got to trust him
This alliance has a purpose
This partnership is only temporary

I will be the one to set your heart free true
Ayy, cleanse yourself from evil spirits that got in you

Won't be frightened
I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Freedom will be waiting when serenity is restored
This is my planet, I shall not surrender

Won't be frightened
I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy
This is my planet, gonna fight
I won't be frightened
I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Freedom will be waiting when serenity is restored
This is my planet, I shall not surrender

Yeah, shall not surrender
Woo-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

The new porcupine on the block with the puffed chest
Out the wilderness with the ruggedness
Knock, knock, it's Knuckles, the blow thrower
Independent flower, Master Emerald holder
Give you the cold shoulder
My spikes goes through boulders
That's why I stay a loner
I was born by myself
I don't need no posse, I get it on by myself
Adversaries get shelved
