Your rating:




[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 (?)

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

[KRS-One] C'mon, that's right

[Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion

[Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin

[KRS-One] Word up!

[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 the system inside a 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.. SURVIVIN

[Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion

[KRS-One] Uhh!  Keep your head up, word!

[Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin

[KRS-One] C'mon, uhh.. SURVIVIN

[Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion

[KRS-One] Uh

[Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin

[KRS-One] Word!  Uh-huh

[Tekitha] That survive, gotta ride to break the illusion, confusion

[KRS-One] Uh.. ALL MY FATHERS

[Tekitha] Keep on fightin, strivin, survivin, survivin

[KRS-One] Word!
