Stay Alive

Mustafa


A bottle of lean
A gun in your jeans
And a little faith in me

A plane in the sky
The only starlight
On this never ending street

The cameras & cops
We could've been stars
On our mothers news screens

All of these tribes
And all of these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive

These colours & flags
The sweat on your back
You're doing what you can

Pride in your hand
A price on your head
You can never let them win

Just put down that bottle
Tell me your sorrows
I care about you fam

All of these tribes
And all these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive

And If they take it all away
Our freedom and our hearts and that glow in your face
I'll remind you who you were before it changed

All of these tribes
& All these street signs
None of them will be yours or mine
But I'll be your empire
Just stay alive
Stay alive
Stay alive
