2. SURVIVE FEAT. UNCLE JACK CHARLES

VERSE 1

Walŋaw li mirithirr li djälthirr

Märr ga ḏälthirr bala kind-dhirr

Märr ga yaka nhuŋu wäŋa yätjirr

Yakan galkurr before night fall

When the knight call

Marrtjin ŋarrany ga throne-gu

Put my name on the throne book

For my people yaka ŋarraku own-gu

 

Life is our right we just wanna live

Let’s get serious to grow kindness

So your country don’t suffer

Don’t wait for night fall

When the knight call

Going straight for the throne

Put my name on the throne book

For my people not for myself

 

Give me a helicopter

A pterodactyl

Yo Bring the doctor

Take the capsule

Veres to sharp like I eat flesh

I’m a TRex when the beat kicks

And my reflex is to crush this

Doesn’t matter how fast you can run kid

You’re messing with powers you can’t kid

Do you really think you should confront this

 

CHORUS

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going we living our life

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

Carry the fire so we can survive

City lights and the loud bass

Gotta stand up fight back

 

VERSE 2

When the Hunters become hunted

Poverty line becomes funded

Billionaires with a million shares

Market crash they redundant

Top floor to the dungeon

Wouldn’t last a day in our shoes

What you know about living off the land

Talking oceans and harpoons

Not fast cars not cartoons

Need to slow down on that fast food

Coz lion kings keep denying things

Heard that from a little Zazu

Sleeping beauty all up in that castle

Ugly truth that thing gon’ fall

And with no hesitation

They gon’ blame the nation

So, I guess I’m ready for war




CHORUS

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going we living our life

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

Carry the fire so we can survive

City lights and the loud bass

Gotta stand up fight back

 

VERSE 3 (Uncle Jack Charles)

My survival ability now

To rest on the fact that I have to share that journey of surviving

Share it with those that are still struggling trying to survive

Against the enormous odds of the vicious cycle

The merry-go-round of prisoners

In and out of prison

(We keep on going like we cannot die)

(We keep on going like we cannot die)

The perpetual journey of going from one addiction to another

(We keep on going like we cannot die)

 

CHORUS:

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

 

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going we living our life

 

We just survive

We just survive

I don't how we continue to thrive

We keep on going like we cannot die

Carry the fire so we can survive

 

We just survive

We just survive

 

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going like we cannot die

We keep on going like we cannot die
