[KRS-One] Yeah, all my fathers [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [KRS-One] Uh.. uh, word [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin [KRS-One] Uh.. hold your head up! [Tekitha] Survivin, survivin [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin [Verse One: uncredited - possibly Shuman] Yo, time to do what we gotta do These days, livin ain't true, but I ain't mad at you I don't got time for the stress and the nonsense So I try to stay blessed, but it's all tense When I awake, feel the sun on my right side It make me wanna grab a gun and change my lifestyle But it only goes so far, so live it up Or realize what you know star, and give it up Or either switch it up, gotta keep reppin on And lookin out for our kids, like the rest of em' Now I know how it is, and what you're handin me So I can calculate the right moves for my family, yo [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [KRS-One] Keep on! [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin [KRS-One] C'mon, c'mon!

[Tekitha] Survivin, survivin [Verse Two: KRS-One] C'mon, let's do this When it comes to the cash, we ain't equal Rich man, poor man, poverty defeats you Where my people? Yo, Kris see you There's only one of you, that's why you gotta be you Them others be see-through, flashin and flossin Me I'm with Inebriated Beats in Boston Strivin, survivin, we get cash often But do you really know what daycare be costin? All my fathers, all my mothers All my sisters, all my brothers Hold your head up and teach them younger cats It ain't where you're from, it's where you're at! [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin [Verse Three: uncredited - possibly Priest] Now see I'm livin just to die without most any reason So I keep on chasin paper 'til it's time to go But should I really go for mine and put the clip all in the 9 Or stay at the 9 to 5 a day I just don't know But a brother got a daughter I gotta support her Caught up in a system that's outta order, man I can't afford A kitted Escalade, or bling bling And so I gotta keep survivin, is the song that I keep singin I try to keep my head off the floor, the country's goin to war While Bush is givin dough to NASA and ain't feedin the poor But I keep love over these beats, these beats keep me alive Alive, I got to stay the Priest, I will survive y'all [Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion [KRS-One] Uh, word [Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin [KRS-One] C'mon, c'mon..
