They smile in your face
and they talk behind your back
And when you give the story,
it's never exact
Some say they're your friends,
but they really are not
Because they're only out to try
and get what you've got
Survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
In order to stay alive,

In jail they got a game,
and they call it survival
They run it down to you
on your first arrival
They tell you what you can
and what you cannot do
So if you ever go to jail, watch ya
It's called survival

It's called survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
In order to stay alive,

I went looking for a job
every day last week
But it turned into a crazy game
of hide -and -seek
Because every place I seemed
to look a job wasn't there
I might as well apply for food
stamps or welfare
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
It's called survival
In order to stay alive
It's called survival,

People like Hercules,
your body is strong,
but your mind is like the devil,
your ideals are wrong.
You hurt people's feelings
and mess with their minds,
then have the nerve to call me brother
and wave the peace sign.
The young and the old,
they all hate your sight,
because of people like you,
they're scared to walk in the night.
It's called survival,
if only the strong can survive,
it's called survival, if only the
Strong can survive,
it's called survival
In order to stay alive,

Survival, survival, survival
The problems of the world today
are bigger than life
You have recessions and depressions
Men are cheating on their wives
Babies born each morn
with part of their bodies gone
Because of some crazy drug
that their mothers was on
There's countries fighting, not uniting
Always putting each other down
Blacks and whites don't realize
that they're really pink and brown
You got gun joke, cut joke,
stress and strife
And looking out for number one
is a way of life
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
It's called survival
In order to stay alive
It's called survival, survival, survival,
survival
You got to lock all your windows,
chain up all your doors,
to protect what's inside of
your houses and stores.
Beware of the food,
it might be no good,
cause there's someone trying to poison
the whole neighborhood. Ha!
Today they found something
in somebody's store
They said kill ten people
and hurt four more
They can't even trust a bill
to make life easier
When there's sudden death
on your roses' freezer
Survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
In order to stay alive,
it's called survival
Survival, survival, survival
About to lose your mind
Because life is hard
Yet you believe in everything
But, God, those pretty women
Lots of money, yeah, that's alright
But don't you ever forget
The man with the mic
Now get a hold of yourself, man
Think positive
Because that's definitely
The only way to live
Don't let your mind flow like water from a cup and don't
you ever let me hear you say that you're giving up
it's called survival
only the strong can survive
it's called survival
only the strong can survive
it's called survival
in order to stay alive
it's called survival
survival survival
remember a child is born
With no state of mind,
he was blind to the ways of mankind
God is smiling on you,
but he's frowning too
Because only God knows
what you'll go through
Ha! Survival
Only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
And only the strong can survive,
it's called survival
In order to stay alive,
it's called survival
Subaru! Subaru!

I'll see you next time.
