Survival

How can you be sitting there

Telling me that you care

That you care

When everytime I look around

The people suffer in suffering

In everyway. In everywhere

Na-na-na-na-na

We're the survivors; yes, the black survival

I tell you what

Some people got everything

Some poeple got nothing

Some people got hopes and dreams

Some people got ways and means

Na-na-na-na-na

We're the survivors; yes, the black survival

Yes we're the survivors like

Daniel out of the lions' den, survivors, survivors

So my brethren, my sisthren

Which way will we choose

We better hurry, oh hurry woe now

'Cause we got no time to lose

Some people got facts and claims

Some peole got pride and shame

Some people got the plots and schemes

Some people got no aim it seems

Na-na-na-na-na

We're the survivors; yes, the black survival

We're the survivors; yes, the black survival

We're the survivors like shadrach, meshach and abednego

Thrown in the fire but never get burn

So my brethren, my sisthren

The preaching and talking is done

We gotta live up woe now, woe now

'Cause the father's time has come

Some people put the best outside

Some people keep the best inside

Some people can't stand up strong

Some people won't wait for long

Na-na-na-na-na

We're the survivors; a black survival

In this age of technological inhumanity

We're the survivors black survival

Scientific atrocity, we're the survivors

Atomic mis-philosophy, we're the survivors

Nuclear mis-energy

It's a world that forces lifelong insecurity

All together now we're the survivors

Yes, the black survival

A good man is never honoured in his own country, black survival

Nothing change, nothing strange

Nothing change, nothing strange

We got to survive, we've got to survive

But to live as one equal in the eyes of the almighty
