I Will Survive - Capleton

I will survive

From my bees are alive

Honey’s coming from the hive yo

Food is coming from my soil

Mama pot a fi boil

Food for the child

Well over the hills and through the valley on top of the mountain

Me seh Selassie I bless and I devote him

Listen to the birds when them a sing them anthem

Listen to the wind a with the whistling blend

Give thanks for the trees for ya produce oxygen

So me let out the lion name from all tongue again

And free all black people from mortality

Out of the mouth ???

Food is the stuff of life let they all be fed again

Righteousness the ghetto youth and seh keep it blazin

I will survive

From my bees are alive

Honey’s coming from the hive yo

Food is coming from my soil

Mama pot a fi boil

Food for the child

So I’m trodding on my way

And I hail King Selassie whether night or day

Just by ya works and so ya cannot get to pay

So I have to chant a song today

And I have to pray along my way

And I have to pray to meet a brighter day

And hail King Selassie I no care what them a say

Blaze up the RED

The one ya name

I will survive

From my bees are alive

Honey’s coming from the hive yo

Food is coming from my soil

Mama pot a fi boil

Food for the child

Well some a say them blessed but them cursed

Nuff a dem no really know what life is worth

Every ghetto youth want fat up mama purse

Hail King Selassie I the first- Yo

Fire a go take them if them dis mama earth

Them civilization them a she give birth

Them get take the fire then tell them fi sure

Diss Emmanuel- you a jerk — the one ya name

I will survive

From my bees are alive

Honey’s coming from the hive yo

Food is coming from the sun

Mama pot a fi boil

Food for the child
