Survival Lyrics - Survival - Bob Marley

(Ow, ow-ow-ow-ow! 

Ow, ow-ow-ow-ow!) 

Yeah, yeah, yeah! 

How can you be sitting there 

Telling me that you care - 

That you care? 

When every time I look around, 

The people suffer in the suffering 

In everyway, in everywhere. 

Say: na-na-na-na-na (na-na, na-na!): 

We're the survivors, yes: the Black survivors! 

I tell you what: some people got everything; 

Some people got nothing; 

Some people got hopes and dreams; 

Some people got ways and means.

Na-na-na-na-na (na-na, na-na!): 

We're the survivors, yes: the Black survivors! 

Yes, we're the survivors, like Daniel out of the lions' den 

(Black survivors) Survivors, survivors! 

So I Idren, I sistren, 

A-which way will we choose? 

We better hurry; oh, hurry; oh, hurry; wo, now! 

'Cause we got no time to lose. 

Some people got facts and claims; 

Some people got pride and shame; 

Some people got the plots and schemes; 

Some people got no aim it seems!

Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na! 

We're the survivors, yes: the Black survivors! 

Tell you what: we're the survivors, yeah! - the Black survivors, yeah! 

We're the survivors, like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego 

(Black survivors), 

Thrown in the fire, but-a never get burn. 

So I Idren, I-sistren, 

The preaching and talkin' is done; 

We've gotta live up, wo now, wo now! - 

'Cause the Father's time has come. 

Some people put the best outside; 

Some people keep the best inside; 

Some people can't stand up strong; 

Some people won't wait for long. 

(Na-na-na-na-na!) Na-na-na, na-na-na na! 

We're the survivors 

In this age of technological inhumanity (Black survival), 

Scientific atrocity (survivors), 

Atomic misphilosophy (Black survival), 

Nuclear misenergy (survivors): 

It's a world that forces lifelong insecurity (Black survival). 

Together now: 

(Na-na-na-na-na!) Na na-na na na! (Na na-na na na!) 

We're the survivors, yeah! 

We're the survivors! 

Yes, the Black survivors! 

We're the survivors: 

A good man is never honoured (survivors) 

in his own yountry (Black survival). 

Nothing change, nothing strange (survivors). 

Nothing change, nothing strange (Black survivors). 

We got to survive, y'all! (survivors) - /fadeout/

But to live as one equal in the eyes
