Soul Survive - Asphalt Ballet

I’ve seen everything a man could see

I’ve seen the strong survive

I’ve seen a young boy crying for food

I’ve seen an old man die

I’ve seen the system fall apart from the rules

And all our Presidents lie

I’ve seen the needle and the damage it’s done

The wreckage left behind

My soul survives

Forever doing time on a dead-end street

My soul survives

Blood like wine running down to my feet, yeah-yeah, yeah!

I’ve seen the broken dreams and broken hearts

I’ve seen the strong be cruel

I’ve seen a man driven by success

And break the golden rules

I’ve seen 'em execute a man for love

Blood running cold in the street

I’ve seen the wars and the heartache it’s done

God bless our soul to keep

My soul survives

Forever doing time on a dead-end street

My soul survives

Blood like wine running down to my feet

My soul survives

Forever

My soul survives

Pick yourself up off your hands and knees

I get so pissed off, it makes me wanna scream, yeah, yeah!

Ooh-ooh, yeah!

No, no, no!

I’ve seen the gunshot heard around the world

I’ve seen a young child crawling and fondle the earth

I’ve seen everything a man could see

I’ve seen heaven, hell, it makes no difference to me, yeah!

My soul survives

Forever doing time on a dead-end street

My soul survives

Blood like wine running down to my feet

My soul survives

Forever

My soul survives

Pick yourself up off your hands and knees, yeah-yeah, yeah!

Bless my soul

My soul survives

Whoa, no, yeah!

C’mon boys, yeah!
