Survive

[Intro]
This yah rifle yah dawg? Crazy
(Dat is it)

[Verse 1]
Fighting mi demons, spread a legions
To di team an' di dream, man haffi keep strong
Mi roll wid a heart heavy like a lean hand
Great things cyaan easy fi pale
Is a ting name chance, everybody need one
Who is you fi a tell mi seh mi nuffi speak wrong?
Worser dan di criminal suh stop eh true
Ghetto tru yuh deh inna jacket (Kmt)

[Pre-Chorus]
Who is you fi a tell mi wah fi do?
Life is a game weh nah nuh rules, di ghetto yutes dem a di proof
Look how much a mek di news
Guns dem out, but a di stars wi a shoot
Mi nuh know wah fi do
Mi feel lost an' a true, oh
A wull heap a tings inna mi life mi nuh deserve
Hey, nuh mek dem lef' da yute yah dead inna reserve

[Chorus]
'Cah mi nah lie whisper a cry
All di pain an' all di fight
Come tek a look inna my eye
Afraid to fail a time fi rise
Opportunities gone high
But I know we will survive
Dark days, ruff times
But I-I-I, I will survive

[Verse 2]
Mummy, it nuh matter wah di cost, mi nah let yuh dung
Touch eh road, nuh lef' mi gun even though it get yuh dung
Just pray fi mi 'cah mi need dat
Slowly a mek it out an' mi nuh waan fi reel off
Regular dem try fi tek di ghetto yutes fi eediat
Unread deh a road, nigga, pree dat
Only dem determine nuh illegal
Suh mi tan inna mi lane 'cah mi street smart
Who dem fi try stop it? Mi a fight 'cause I haffi see di risk
An' I watch it 'cah mi nah mek dem tek mi points
Shootin' like rocket to di top, it ironic, try stand it
Stop it, mi a guh affi come tek yuh life
Mek a real sacrifice, now mi reach fi mi goal
Smoke an' mi drink 'cah mi need it fi cope
Fi di days weh mi wake an' nuh feeling di hope
(Oh)

[Chorus]
'Cah mi nah lie whisper a cry
All di pain an' all di fight
Come tek a look inna my eye
Afraid to fail a time fi rise
Opportunities gone high
But I know we will survive
Dark days, ruff times
But I-I-I, I will survive

[Outro]
