survival

Singer: bone thugs-n-harmony

girl

i'll be there when the morning comes

'cause these hands were made for survival

girl

i will be there when the morning comes

'cause these hands were made for survival

there's many levels to my hustle

the struggle won't take me under

they wonder how i survived it

kill it then revive it

witness a survivor

the man is strictly the provider

the ambitionz of a ridah

it's too strong

i gotta make it

but if makin' it mean i gotta fake it

i'd rather stay on my cray shit

basement

nigga we keeping it real around here

they tried to lock us out of the game so now we're coming from 'round rear

gotta hold my head up high

only got ten toes on the pavement

the survival's oh so real

with one foot in the grave

we just signed a new deal

plenty more money to make

i can eat whatever meal

now i can get my bills paid

still hold down the block

still runnin' and duckin' cops

tryna slam me back down but that's not possible

i'm keeping my eyes on the prize man

that's how i'm focus

pedal to the medal and my own lane wide open

girl

i'll be there when the morning comes

'cause these hands were made for survival

girl

i will be there when the morning comes

'cause these hands were made for survival

i won't die

i won't die

i promise i won't die tonight

i won't die

i won't die

girl

i promise i won't die tonight

yeah

girl

tonight

hey look

i do this for the all of the rap

serious like a heart attack

focus on the paper i stack 'cause i need a larger pack

death

see i can't conjure that

here to bring the honour back

get respect so kids in the ghetto can one day follow that

i'm runnin' a marathon

niggas is out here racing me

ain't no erasing me

ain't no disgracing me

ain't no replacing me

i do this for tomorrow

but if i die tonight

i die a martyr

yes here bizzy be still in the zone

when niggas ask me what i'm doing

i proceed to make it known

you don't have to be the coolest

it don't mean you ain't a bone

i'ma have to be the truest

homily to leave the throne

nobody fuckin' with me

got be ready and then i be gone

and after i'm done

they gotta purport fear

baby we're debutant

have no motherfucking fear and i put that on the lord

i'ma pull out one of my swords

i don't give nobody none of my tears

i live and work

girl

i'll be there when the morning comes

'cause these hands were made for survival

give 'em an inch

they want a mile

show 'em love

they play the cowards

that's for me

i was scoping like a thousand niggas

pump now so tomorrow niggas

rock-a-bye b's

never say never

gas out

that's on my mental

it's simple

we hustle

continue

continue

if you not playin' the real games

step out the way

'cause 'round here

it's real thangs

that's all day

'cause what i've been through

i've been through

in my mind

it's no equal

strategise 'em

i'ma have to ride and take from you people

get equal

i won't die

i won't die

promise i won't die tonight
