Letra de Survive - Wale

I mean what's gon' be first thing you do when you, uh, when you catch your big break and you blow up, man?

First thing I'ma do?

I'ma get the fuck out the hood (Uh)

I gave 'em the story, they missed the whole plot

Led 'em to water, but still they be high

'Drated, I'm afraid, I can't know the time

'Cause like every night, I be mourning a lot

Survivor's remorse, that's all I be thinkin'

Living too hard, hear dying is easy

The concept of trying is not on the menu

When niggas you eat with just die every week

I got a friend I knew as a teen

Had all the J's, had all the tings

Had a few A's, driving a C

But life is a B 'cause now he a fiend

Survivor's remorse, the poster boy of it

Pose you this question, who 'posed to be loyal?

Nobody, your friend, your family, your bitch

When you get money, it's only your lawyer, survive

See through my lens, it get shady (Shady)

Can't turn my pain into patience this time

Showing no grace, but I'm grateful (Grateful)

We just living to survive

Be grateful you woke up and got out of bed this morning, at least you alive

I get it, the odds was never cut out in your favor, at least you was tryin'

I'm physically tired, got aspirations of the future inside of my mind

Survivor's remorse, I think of the people I left and I'm leavin' behind

I gotta survive

For all of my homies ain't make it this far, I gotta survive

A couple of reasons you are who you are, you gotta survive

Would you rather live or regret that you didn't? You gotta decide

I'm living my story, it's already written, I gotta survive

See through my lens, it get shady (Shady)

Can't turn my pain into patience this time

Showing no grace, but I'm grateful (Grateful)

We just living to survive

How many lives will they take?

When will the good times outweigh the goodbyes?

Sometimes it's hard to be faithful (It's hard to be faithful)

They can't say I ain't been tryin' (Look)

No funny, no funny, I just got to Dallas

My stomach is turnin', I go to Glenarden

I'm covered by flowers, I made my third album

I buried my brother, y'all don't know the pain

Running on empty, I never did heal

Luggage too heavy, I travel with pills

What do you do if your man on parole?

And he go where you go, but he don't know how to chill

Survivor's remorse

All of these youngins be dying too young

All of these problems is foreign to y'all

Y'all never paid for a child in a hearse for a bullet that missed everybody but her

That's why I be sleepin' right after a Perc'

If I get pulled over, just send me in there

I did what I did 'cause I'd die if I don't

You know how this shit go, it's survival, of course

W— got hit, I was cryin' for months

**** told me, "Moe, you gotta keep going

We know who did it and we linin' 'em up"

Make 'em proud in this jawn and survive

Survive with me, dog, when everything else be a lot

Survive

See through my lens, it get shady

Showing no grace, but I'm grateful

We just living to survive
