How
[Em] can [Am] you be sitting there [F] telling me
[C] that you care,
[Am]
that you [C] care, [Am]
when every time I look around
the [F] people suffer and the suffer
in [C] every way,
[Am]
in every [C] way.
[Am]
Na, [G] na, na, [Am]
na, na.
We're [Am] the [C] 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 [F] means.
Na, na, na, [Am] na, na.
[G]
We're [Em] the survivors, yes the black survivors.
Yes, we're the survivors.
Like Daniel out of [A] the lion's [Em] den.
[Am] Survivors, survivors.
[C] So I, I, I say
string, [F] oh which way will [C] we choose?
We [F] better hurry, [Am] oh hurry, oh hurry,
or [F] else we've got [G] no time to [Em] lose.
Some people got facts and claims.
Some people got pride and shame.
Some people got the plots and the schemes.
Some [Am] people got no aim it seems.
[F] Na, na, na, [Am] na, na.
We're [G]
the [Em] survivors, yes the black survivors.
I tell you what, we're the survivors.
Yes, the black survivors.
Yes, we're the survivors.
Like Shedrock, Meshack and the Benz Four.
Survivors.
Rolling the [Am] fire but you never get burned.
[C] So I, I drink, I say string, [F] reaching and talking [C] is done.
[Em]
We've [D] got [Am] to live up, go now, go now.
[F] Bob the father, [G] time has come.
[Em] Some people put the best outside.
Some people keep the best [A]
inside.
[C] Some people can't stand [Em] up strong.
Some people won't wait for long.
[F] We're [Am]
[G]
[Em] the survivors, in this age of technological humanity.
We're the survivors, scientific atrocity.
Atomic misphilosophy.
Nuclear mis-energy.
It's a world that forces life on insecurity.
Together [F] now, [G] [Am]
[G]
[Em] we're the survivors.
Yes, we're the survivors.
Yes, the black survivors.
We're the survivors.
A good man is never gonna suffer.
In his own young.
[N]
