LYRICS (By Beryce and Arron David Storey):
Buy or sell
Own your property
I won’t ask questions
Just a commodity
I can’t complain
I can’t withdraw
You force my labour
Take my validity
You hurt me, hurt me but I’ll survive
Survive
Stay alive


You take my shoes
And my dignity
A life surrounded
With hostility
You can put me down
But I’ll rise again
You won’t mutilate
My humanity
You’ll burn me, you’ll hurt me but I’ll survive
Survive
Stay alive


You can beat me down
Humiliate
I fear the beating, banging, burning

That you initiate
You could knock me round
All the seven states
But I’ll still hold on
‘Til we’re liberated
You cut me, you hurt me but I’ll survive
Survive
Stay alive
Survive




As I turn the key, release my bare feet
Where do I go from here?
As I look around, freedom aroused
Watch as I disappear
As I turn the key, I only feel
Alive
I’m alive
I’ll survive


I broke my chains
For my liberty
I walk alone now
In captivity
If they track me down
I’ll hang from a tree
But I’ll die unchained
Not live in misery
You’ll burn me, you’ll hurt me, but I’ll survive
