How can you be sitting there
Telling me that you care
That you care
When everytime I look around
The people suffer in suffering
In everywhere, in everywhere
Na-na-na-na-na
We're the survivors-yes, the black survival
I tell you what
Some people got everything
Some people got nothing
Some people got hopes and dreams
Some people got no aim it seems
We're the survivors-yes, the black survival
Yes we're the survivors like
Daniel out of the lions' den survivors
So my brethren, my sisthren
Which way will we choose
Wer better hurry, oh hurry woe now
'Cause we got no time to lose
Some people got plots and schemes
Some people got ways and means
Some people got the facts and claims
Some people got the pride and shame
We re the survivors yes, the black survival
We're the survivors like Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego
Thrown in the fire but never get burn
So my brethren, my sisthren
The preaching and talking is done
We gotta live up woe now, woe now
'Cause the father's time has come
Some people put the best outside
Some people keep the best inside
Some people can't stand up strong
Some people won't wait for long
Na-na-na-na-na
We're the survivors-a black survival
In this age of technological inhumanity
We're the survivors black survival
Scientific atrocity, we're the survivors
Atomic mis-philosophy, we're the survivors
It's a world that forces lifelong insecurity
All together now we're the survivors
Yes, the black survival
A goad man is never honoured in his own
Country Black survival
Nothing change, nothing strange
We got to survive, we got to suirvive
But to live as one equal in the eyes
Of the almighty
