Wahwahtay Benais - Survival Is Necessary lyrics

"Survival Is Necessary" [Intro:] School press conference? Press this on your conscious [Chorus:] Survival is necessary And my indigenous vocabulary Need to be carried Before they pa**ing Cause of old age They hold the wisdom of the old ways Keep it living it's the mission Our survival is necessary [Repeat x1] [Verse One:] You know it's true When you feeling them chills You just related to it You know it's real When you see them tears Rolling down the face of an elder I hate the feeling of failure And I'm trained that my feet never fail me Never maybe it's a must We survive in these modern times You out dumping to them fiends People dying Put the gun to where he dreams Over colors over c.r.e.a.m Out my mind all the time You don't work you don't eat On my grind it's essential like water For my tribe for my son and my daughter For my people to survive Know your past we alive and we living in hell We faced a**imilation They put my people in jail Just for speaking the truth You want our people to fail Ain't no breaking these roots I'm indigenous I'm militant I battle with words You never break cause it turns I swear to God I'm gonna keep the fire burning In this drum drum [Chorus:] Survival is necessary And my indigenous vocabulary Need to be carried Before they pa**ing Cause of old age They hold the wisdom of the old ways Keep it living it's the mission Our survival is necessary [Repeat x1] [Verse Two:] I ain't looking up to dealers and bangers Ain't got to follow the beat You want a shallow grave Filled with them hallows to sleep I got kids I got to raise I'm not a soldier But more a father and a warrior Who hold it down and I fight for our cause You know I'm native when I'm speaking my tongue You know we're native When we're living our traditions in harmony son It ain't the .22's gleaming Or the 25 to life Not the fees or the ice You can feast on what I write I'm a peace pipe giving you balance You want to eat right Don't listen to the garbage around us Cause its made to bring us down Son I'm proud cause I'm brown Yo we rich with tradition Let the drum sound It's my mission to bring this if you listen You hear them it's our people That have pa** Now the time for us to stand To unite come together as one Pick it up and carry on For the sake of our survivors and sons [Chorus:] Survival is necessary And my indigenous vocabulary Need to be carried Before they pa**ing Cause of old age They hold the wisdom of the old ways Keep it living it's the mission Our survival is necessary [Repeat x1]
