GAME: SURVIVAL OF DA FITTEST
2 BROWN AND WHITE IN DA MIDDLE (3X)...
AND DA BEAT GOES ON AND DA BEAT GOES ON
YOU GOTTA HAVE A GIMMICK IF YOU WANNA STAY IN IT
CUZ IT'S STILL... SURVIVAL OF DA FITTEST
OOH I REMEMBER IT WELL WHEN TIMES WERE SO BITTER
WE USED TO EAT SARDINES AND POPCORN FOR DINNER
THERE WAS NO RUNNING WATER AND 8 HOUR BROWNOUTS
WE PLAYED SCRABBLE TILL OUR CANDLE LIGHTS RAN OUT
WE LIVED IN A WHOLE IN A WALL THAT HAD NO WINDOWS
THE DOLLARS MAMA SENT ME ALL STARTED TO DWINDLE
WE'VE GONE THROUGH SO MANY MANAGERS
PAID OUR DUES AND DAMAGES
BUT STILL, WE SCROUNGED LIKE SCAVENGERS
YEAR AFTER YEAR, SWEAT BLOOD AND TEARS
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE WITH OUR F@#KED UP CAREERS?
WE WANTED TO RETIRE,CAUSE WE FELT LIKE LIARS
PRETENDED WE ENJOYED SINGIN' EARTH WIND AND FIRE
BUT DON'T GET ME WRONG WE DO LOVE THAT BAND
EVEN THOUGH THAT'S WHAT THEY WANTED
BUT WE'RE NOT A COVER BAND
ASKING OURSELVES WHY WE KEEP HANGIN' ON
BUT IT'S ABOUT PERSEVERING WHILE THE GAME WAS STILL HOME
YOU GOTTA HAVE A GIMMICK IF YOU WANNA STAY IN IT
CUZ IT'S STILL ...SURVIVAL OF DA FITTEST
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING
ANY ROAD WILL TAKE YOU THERE
SO WE PREPARED FOR THE WORST CAUSE WE KNOW LIFE ISN'T FAIR
WE PROCEEDED WITH CAUTION TRYIN' TO PROTECT OUR LEAD
SWIMMIN' WITH THE SHARKS AND DEALIN' WITH THE GREED
PARASITES AND OROCANS PLASTIC TILL THE VERY END
CUZ IN THIS CRAZY BUSINESS WE'RE OUR ONLY FRIENDS
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMIN' BUT WE LIKE WHERE WE ARE
NEVER HAD A MEGAHIT OR BEEN SUPERSTARS
PEOPLE'S ALWAYS TELLIN' US, TO MAKE MUSIC FOR THE MASSES
BUT OUR VISION'S CLEAR SO WE DON'T NEED THEM GLASSES
KULAY IS OUR WAY AND KULAY IS OUR VIBE
KULAY IS OUR WAY AND KULAY IS OUR VIBE
KULAY IS OUR WAY AND KULAY IS OUR VIBE
THERE'S NO OTHER WAY FOR US TO ENJOY THE RIDE
WE KEEP ON....WE KEEP ON
