Alive Lyrics - Singles - Arsonists

[Chorus: Swel] 

You can't kill the wise 

We gon be here in your children's eyes 

And your children's children's children's eyes 

We was built to rise and we will survive 

[Verse One: Swel Boogie] 

Who's gettin shitted on? 

Who's gettin shitted on? 

Who's the next motherfucker to get shitted on? 

'Cause if that nigga is me, then we gon get it on 

Don't even smile in my face if we don't get along 

Yeah that's right, I sound foul (so?) 

And maybe even sound bocus, but focus 

just notice that I know how it feels to be hopeless 

and homeless 

But it ain't about hard times 

Everybody goes through a struggle that makes ya mind craze 

and you thinkin who's above you 

but I get up, I don't stay down 

I got lot of shit to climb, get with the time 

You shit on me? That's fine 

I'm at the finish line, now you behind 

We in the race and I'm droppin your horse 

Everything down my road is an obsticle course 

And one by one I see 'em go down 

and I'm sweatin to win 

Who's goin get the gold 

I see the fool is bettin, it's him 

So now we're toe-to-toe, eye-to-eye 

Will you survive? 

My crew will strive, we clever why 

We never die 

It's true we rise 

(Chorus 2x) 

[Verse Two: Jise One] 

We stranded on jungles of concrete 

Primal fear scuffing my feet 

where paper scuffle spear head pens 

And rhymes is good to eat 

Where two species of snake meet ground 

Pound instinct, swamp walkin a leech 

a street parasite wedging my soul to heat 

Machetero, puro latino 

hybrid with hyena 

Laugh it off scraping the blood sucka off 

Racing a cheetah 

key to the world 

I walk, I talk in my step 

Guerilla suited and fitted who chalk reps 

Shitted with hearts knitted 

My tribes kept and never slept 

Night watch changing my shift 

Just in case of deadly concepts 

possess a myth that I could sniff 

my prev's shadow in my perimeter 

Sinister sounds at night 

So I hibernate in the winter 

(Chorus 2x) 

[Verse Three: Q-Unique] 

I stand evenly against all odds 

Now at a war with gods 

so from the heavens came triggered bullets to dodge 

Struggle to survive 

It's never ending 

My eyes locked on the bonus plan 

Though adversity keeps it pending 

Food, shelter, riches, hopes, dreams, wishes 

But life could be like a mixer 

sometimes the fader switches 

Watchin as time passes to the last sand granular 

Put on to run the streets without a survival manual 

I move day to day, unaware but well prepared 

digest the proper rations and framed lenses 

to help my stare 

exists 'cause I'm one step ahead 

Never get ahead of myself 

'cause one too many steps could be 

one step ya dead 

I've played many times with the chess master 

Lost some of my pawns and sent my knights into shear 

and great disaster 

I stratagize and move through life's highway 

At the end smile with a Sinatra's sureness 

'cause I know I did it +my way+ 

(Chorus 2x)
