We Will Survive - The Game[00:00:00]
Written by:The Game[00:00:01]
We will survive we've been through this too many times[00:00:08]
My people are getting stronger they know that we on the rise[00:00:11]
We will not live and let die[00:00:14]
My niggas on the front line and we all here[00:00:15]
Hold your head high[00:00:18]
So many years too many tears living this life[00:00:19]
This a battle we gotta fight so put your war paint on[00:00:21]
A lot of black men died over slavery[00:00:24]
Civil rights and apartheid[00:00:27]
These are the hard times but we will survive[00:00:28]
It all started 400 years ago my people in chains[00:00:30]
400 years later same bullshit y'all ain't changed[00:00:33]
You got a jump shot or you rap or play ball[00:00:35]
Then you can eat in Beverly Hills and shop in they mall[00:00:38]
Who really making calls like my[00:00:41]
People ain't determined enough[00:00:42]
And in the hood they trying to terminate us[00:00:44]
And turn us against each other[00:00:46]
Got us fighting over colours brothers[00:00:47]
I thought the object was to love one another[00:00:49]
We can't see past the 20 inch rims bitches and hoes[00:00:51]
40 bottles and frequent trips to the liquor store[00:00:54]
So how do we raise our children[00:00:57]
There's a new born soul every hour in America[00:00:59]
This is not only there's but our America[00:01:01]
The white man made it this way[00:01:04]
We never asked for the slavery days[00:01:05]
But we still paying for cotton t shirts[00:01:08]
Our ancestors picked that we hurt[00:01:10]
But this is the rebirth[00:01:12]
We will survive[00:01:13]
We've been through this too many times[00:01:14]
My people are getting stronger[00:01:16]
They know that we on the rise[00:01:17]
We will not live and let die[00:01:19]
My niggas on the front line and we all here[00:01:20]
Hold your head high[00:01:23]
So many years too many tears living this life[00:01:24]
This a battle we gotta fight so put your war paint on[00:01:26]
A lot of black men died over slavery[00:01:29]
Civil rights and apartheid[00:01:31]
These are the hard times but we will survive[00:01:33]
They say the black man will struggle[00:01:35]
As long as he continues to hustle[00:01:36]
And pitch crack from a bucket[00:01:37]
These muthaf**kers have no idea[00:01:39]
They lock us in prison for years[00:01:41]
And send us county checks to compensate us[00:01:42]
For our mothers tears[00:01:44]
Too many taxes every 12 checks another w2[00:01:45]
President Bush's way to say f**k you[00:01:49]
Our day is coming we taking over[00:01:51]
How you give us guns when 70 percent[00:01:52]
Of all kuwaiti soldiers[00:01:54]
You gotta be stupid[00:01:56]
Don't ever forget we were African rulers before[00:01:57]
Nba players and furniture movers[00:02:00]
You burnt this I prove it[00:02:02]
We don't want 40 acres no more[00:02:03]
College funds and real estate[00:02:05]
Keep the Grammy awards your h2's[00:02:07]
New watches we don't hate you watch us[00:02:08]
Me and marshall's like hank Aaron and Babe Ruth[00:02:10]
Opposite races still chasing the same dream[00:02:13]
But when it boils down to everyday life[00:02:15]
Who do I trust me[00:02:16]
We will survive we've been through this too many times[00:02:18]
My people are getting stronger they know that we on the rise[00:02:20]
We will not live and let die[00:02:23]
My niggas on the front line and we all here[00:02:25]
Hold your head high[00:02:27]
So many years too many tears living this life[00:02:28]
This a battle we gotta fight so put your war paint on[00:02:31]
A lot of black men died over slavery[00:02:34]
Civil rights and apartheid[00:02:35]
These are the hard times but we will survive[00:02:36]
I will not surrender this is not the ending[00:02:40]
Turn my back in the dirt this is uncle Sam's curse[00:02:42]
You got a hot verse you on MTV[00:02:45]
You can dunk in the 8th grade you on nbc[00:02:47]
Kids struggling to make grades in school[00:02:50]
You run the rock like barry sanders in the[00:02:52]
Tenth grade you getting paid at school[00:02:54]
And all the old heads that paid their[00:02:56]
Dues we don't respect that[00:02:57]
Too worried about where the next nike air checks at[00:02:59]
News rims put on your Lexus[00:03:02]
He ain't registered to vote Al Gore loses the next election[00:03:04]
One strike two strikes three strikes your gone[00:03:06]
25 to life but still life moves on[00:03:09]
A wise man told when I was younger I'm God's chosen[00:03:12]
He don't understand so the ak soak him[00:03:14]
Black wall street got them open[00:03:17]
I try to tell them I'm where hope floats man[00:03:19]
The ghetto spokesman[00:03:21]
We will survive we've been through this too many times[00:03:23]
My people are getting stronger[00:03:25]
They know that we on the rise[00:03:27]
We will not live and let die[00:03:28]
My niggas on the front line and we all here[00:03:30]
Hold your head high[00:03:32]
So many years too many tears living this life[00:03:33]
This a battle we gotta fight so put your war paint on[00:03:36]
A lot of black men died over slavery[00:03:38]
Civil rights and apartheid[00:03:40]
These are the hard times but we will survive[00:03:42]
We will survive we've been through this too many times[00:03:44]
My people are getting stronger they know that we on the rise[00:03:47]
We will not live and let die[00:03:49]

So many years too many tears living this life[00:03:55]
