it's called sur[C]vival
Only [Am]the strong can survive,
it's called sur[C]vival
In order [Am]to stay alive,
it's [C]called survival
Survival, [Am]survival, survival
They smile in your face and
they talk behind your back
And when you give [C]the story,
it's never ex[Am]act
Some say [C]they're your friends,
but they really are not
[Am]Because they're only out to try
and get what you've got

[Am]Only the strong can survive,
it's [C]called survival
In order to [Am]stay alive,
it's called sur[C]vival
Surviv[Am]al, survival, survival
In jail they got a [G]game,
[Am]and they call it survival
They run it down to you
on your first arrival
They tell you what you [G]can
and what you [Am]cannot do
So if you ever go to [G]jail, watch [C]ya

[Am]I went looking for a job[G]
[C]every day [Am]last week
But it turned into a crazy [G]game
of [C]hide [Am]-and -seek
Because every place I [C]seemed
to look a job was[Am]n't there
I might as well apply for [G]food
stamps [C]or wel[Am]fare

And only the strong can survive

People like
[Am]Herc[G]ules, your body [C]is s[Am]trong,
but your mind is like the [G]devil, [C]your ideals
[Am]are wrong.
You [C]hurt people's feelings and mess with their minds,
then have the nerve to call me brother
and wave the peace sign.
The young and the old, they all hate your sight,
because of people like you, they're
scared to walk in the night.
It's called survival, and only the strong can [F]survive,
it's [C]called survival, and only
the strong [Am]can survive, it's called survival
[G]In [C]order [Am]to stay a[F]live,
it's [Am]called survival
[G]Survival, sur[Am]vival, survival
The prob[C]lems of the world
today are bigger than life
You have recessions and depressions
Men are cheating on their wives
Babies born each morn
With part of their bodies gone
Because of some crazy drug
That their mothers was on
There's countries fighting, not uniting
Always putting each other down
[F]Bla[Am]cks and whi[C]tes don't realize that
they're really pink and [Am]brown
You've got gun joke,
[G]cut [C]joke, stress and [Am]strife
And looking out for number
one [C]is a [Am]way of life
It's called survival
And only the strong can survive
It's called sur[C]vival
And only the strong can sur[F]vive
It's [C]called survival
[Am]In order to st[C]ay alive
[F]It's called surviv[C]al, sur[Am]vival, surviv[C]al,
[Am]survival[C]

cause there's someone trying to [G]poison [C]the whole
[Am]neighborhood.

[C]in [Am]somebody's store
