(Owow-ow-ow-ow!
Owow-ow-ow-ow!)
Yeahyeahyeah!
How can you be sitting there
Telling me that you care -
That you care?
When every time I look around
The people suffer in the suffering
In everywayin everywhere.

Say: na-na-na-na-na (na-nana-na!):
We re the survivorsyes: 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 means.

Na-na-na-na-na (na-nana-na!):
We re the survivorsyes: the Black survivors!
Yeswe re the survivorslike Daniel out of the lions den
(Black survivors) Survivorssurvivors!

A-which way will we choose?
We better hurry; ohhurry; ohhurry; wonow!
Cause we got no time to lose.
Some people got facts and claims;
Some people got pride and shame;
Some people got the plots and schemes;
Some people got no aim it seems!

Na-na-na-na-nana-nana!

The preaching and talkin is done;
We ve gotta live upwo nowwo 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!) Na-na-nana-na-na na!
We re the survivors
In this age of technological inhumanity (Black survival)
Scientific atrocity (survivors)
Atomic misphilosophy (Black survival)
Nuclear misenergy (survivors):
It s a world that forces lifelong insecurity (Black survival).
