"I And I Survive" lyrics - BAD BRAINS

Why must all people keep on shooting and robbing
Why must must all people keep on killing and fighting
No I, I and I would never try
Listen no, not I, I and I would never try
And why must the rich man keep on hoarding all the money
And why must this poor man, my living it ain't very funny
No I, I and I will would never try
Listen no, not I, I and I would never
Try to live that way!

No, not I, I and I would never try
No, not I, I and I would never
And what did Jah show them
I and I survive
They tried to stop this nation but
I and I survive
To chant down creation,
I and I survive
An Israeli nation
I and I
Try to live that way!

So why must I and I
Want each way
Why oh why
And why must I and I
Want each way
No I, not I, I and I will never try.
Listen no, not I, I and I will never try

Without any money
And I survive
Without any food to eat
And I survive
