R.A.W. "Only The Strong Survive" (Lyrics Copyrighted)

[Verse 1: R.A.W.]
Personally, I’ve seen these streets give the strongest fright and dread
That'll make some people cry in bed but I chose to fight instead
Scarred emotionally and inside my head bout to die on edge
But no scar (Scar) could have me like Mufasa, lyin' (Lion) dead
I’ve been stressed ‘cause I’m pressed to break through this
Cycle that breeds psychos to think ruthless
Round dudes who drink foolish and make movements
Wit' lunatics (Lunatics) in a state of misery (Missouri) that ain’t from St. Louis
This pain music roots from the slums
Where bad influences run the pursuit of some crumbs
For the fewest of funds cats usin' a gun
So I don’t mean cheap socks when a small price has tubes on ya tongue
You can get erased from the hunger
Of paper chasers and hunters walkin' round like they days isn’t numbered
If your soft the storm is takin' you under
So make your guard harden (Harden) like a Rocket and get away from with thunder (Thunder)

[Hook: R.A.W.]
I hope you ain’t weak ‘cause you won't stay alive
If you’re a sheep, wolves see it in your eyes
And please don’t weep ‘cause no one cares for your cries
In the streets only the strong survive
I hope you ain’t weak ‘cause you won't stay alive
If you’re a sheep, wolves see it in your eyes
And please don’t weep ‘cause no one cares for your cries
In the streets only the strong survive

[Verse 2: R.A.W.]
It might take the strength of Hercules to escape emergencies
Such as rapes and burglaries, movin' weight and murder’s these
Kid’s commit that’ll spit a clip to plague the urban streets
‘Cause in the end Benjamin’s the only thing they urge to see
But I’m worry free ‘cause if worries steady on ya mind
Fear’ll kill you round the deadliest of crimes
Stay away from shooters heavy on the grind
‘Cause Packers get defensive when white's (White’s) on the line like Reggie in his prime
And won’t hesitate to levitate ya to the essence
And leave the murder scene with unsolved questions
‘Cause wearing gloves never left hints
For detectives who need a will (Will) to be Jeffrey and work hard for fresh prints (Fresh Prince)
And honestly if they don’t gotta lead
On you, they’ll get someone to rat you out to stop your cheese
The weak’ll snitch just to cop a plea
So marcs(marks) don’t get brought down by sentences like apostrophes

[Hook: R.A.W.]
I hope you ain’t weak ‘cause you won't stay alive
If you’re a sheep, wolves see it in your eyes
And please don’t weep ‘cause no one cares for your cries
In the streets only the strong survive
I hope you ain’t weak ‘cause you won't stay alive
If you’re a sheep, wolves see it in your eyes
And please don’t weep ‘cause no one cares for your cries
In the streets only the strong survive
