Survival

(album: Never Ending - 2018)

Yeah
It's dog eat dog world out there
Yeah
Gotta be strong to survive, yeah
Strong, strong, strong, yeah, oh, yeah

I cry freedom
For the innocent that's in captivity
I cry freedom
Yeah, yeah
I cry freedom
My people, you're robbed of your liberty
I say freedom
Yeah, yeah

For the family that's gone
To a distant foreign land
To make good for themselves
And the ones that are left back home
Letters once in a while
Can bring a little smile
My letters can have you
And sure can explain heeds that to the pain

I say freedom
For the colors that's discriminated upon
I cry freedom
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I cry freedom
Woman have what you take and as much as you can
Cry freedom, yeah, yeah

For the ordinary men
Whether's little did he plan
We give no time of day to, it is a miracle how we get through
Goes to bed early, tryna dream of a heaven bird
Hoping it's gonna play
Can't wait for the day he can truly say
Today is my day

I cry freedom
For all the young minds that they led astray
I cry freedom
Yeah, yeah, oh, God
I cry freedom
Bullies everywhere, today's the day
I cry freedom
Yeah, yeah, yeah

For your book of rules that says
Getting rich is not my kind of business
I got things for you, my friend
I'm gonna fight it right to the end
I toil and toil even when my back hurts
I still feel the dream
Though sometimes I get weak
Still mine stepped up
And to fortify

I cry freedom
For all the principles my ancestors died for
I cry freedom, yes
Yeah, yeah, oh
I cry freedom
For the little they give and take mine more
I cry freedom
Yeah, yeah

I cry freedom
For my little sisters, they turned to slaves
I cry freedom, yes
Yeah, yeah
I cry freedom
For those who reach out and never had, sleep good
Freedom
