Pick yourself up from off the ground
I hate to see you just lying around all day
No freeing astray is gonna come around
So lose those shackles don’t you be a slave
You got life so forget about your grave
And if you wanna win, you gotta put up a fight, hey
Cause only the strongest of the strong will survive
And only the fittest of the fit will stay alive
You can’t run inna di gideon with no fire in your eyes
And if you wanna get to zion, you need a will, you need a drive
Not everyday is gonna be a paradise, no
There comes a time when you will have to pay the price
And if you waan good, make that sacrifice
They say good things come to those who wait
But the greatest things are bout to go the will create
Put your mind to good use
And put some food on your owna place
Owna plate
Cause only the strongest of the strong will survive
And only the fittest of the fit will stay alive
You can’t run ina di gideon with no fire in your eyes
And if you wanna get to zion, you need a will, you need a drive
You got to start from somewhere
Start from somewhere
So when life test you
Nuh get up and run fi no cover
And if you wanna live, try fight fire pon fire
Dem say that when trouble check you
Evil pickney shall fit you
All the people around you
Realize they ain’t really with you
Everything will come so easily
But in time you will have to learn
In your struggles you will feel the heat
But you can’t rise without a burn
Because only the strongest of the strong will survive
And only the fittest of the fit will stay alive
You can’t run inna di gideon with no fire in your eyes
And if you wanna get to zion, you need a will, you need a drive
Because only the strongest of the strong will survive
And only the fittest of the fit will stay alive
You can’t run ina di gideon with no fire in your eyes
And if you wanna get to zion, you need a will, you need a drive
Survival, survive, survive
Survival, only the fittest, only the strongest
You got to fight, you got to fight
