Survivor - CEE, Bonfire

I can feel it, it’s everywhere, it’s surrounding me

The sky the limit but the clouds, they overshadow me

It’s heavy now but ain’t nothing on what it’s 'bout to be

I’m staying up, coz my father is looking down on me

And so I move with gratitude, I had to do it

Had to lose it, acting ruthless, a nuisance, so damn a movement

Came up outta this one thing, from rapping to plucked strings

It happened, the family hit the map off the one dream

Aye, best believe you your Top 5

Whoever you letting share in your energy stockpile

I’m tryina stay mindful every morning, with a primer and a coffee

And an unforgiving focus on survival and the glory

Dog, I’m trusting in my inner wisdom

And all the angels who’ve been guiding me, forgive the slippin'

I know that greatness is inside of me, I sit and listen

And still innately know that time’ll be my biggest critic, somebody tell me why

Hook (Bonfire):

You do you, and I’ma do me

Put out the fire burnin' inside me

‘Coz I was a fool and he was a king

Nurture the storm, ‘coz

I’m a survivor, I’m a survivor

I’m a survivor

Father help me harness all this energy

Verse 2 (Cee):

I can feel it, it’s everywhere, it’s surrounding me

The kid is turning into everything they’d doubt he’d be

I see 'em scoping, green envy, they astounded, see

The spirit of my blessed ancestors, echo loud in me

And so on days when the going get tough, and I feel so in a rut

I think of him and know he’s holding me up

I see a man who loved strong and worked hard

He did wrong by noone, through his sons, he lives on

Every day, up in the mirror, I see him

And I be steadily reminded why I’m here and I’m breathing

I got a reason, I’ma celebrate the man he was, every accolade in us

He raised me and my brother to be soldiers, man we never was

Afraid to take a risk, 'fraid to leave it all and dip

Afraid to be just who we are, follow dreams of making hits

I know that greatness is inside of us both, we with the vision

And innately we just do it all for pops, I hope he listening

Hook (Bonfire):

You do you, and I’ma do me

Put out the fire burnin' inside me

‘Coz I was a fool and he was a king

Nurture the storm, ‘coz

I’m a survivor, I’m a survivor

I’m a survivor

Father help me harness all this energy

Bridge (Bonfire):

I’ma survive, I’ma survive

I’ma survive, I’ma survive

Hook (Bonfire):

I’m a survivor, I’m a survivor

I’m a survivor

Father help me harness all this energy
