These streets, these bills, these kids to feed
The devil is really testing me
And I pray that I will finally be set free
But I aint gonna make it out of here
I aint gonna make it out of here
The pressure it eats me up alive
My children still look me in the eye
And they ask with all the innocence inside
"Are we gonna make it out of here?"
"Are we gonna make it out of here, alive?"
Alive, alive
Am I?
Am I?
Alive
God, please hear my prayer I have said so many times
You know my desires and you know how hard I've tried
Even though we're broke, I know we're still rich inside
I just wanna make it out of here
I just wanna make it out of here
I wanna let go of the pressure and all of my fear
Put my faith in a dream that I feel is really near
I'm so tired of living in this wicked atmosphere
I just wanna make it out of here
I just wanna make it out of here
Alive, alive
Am I?
Am I?
Alive
God please calm my spirit as I walk along these streets
I know you are with me and you're guiding both my feet
Even though we struggle you still make sure that we eat
I know we're gonna make it out of here
I know we're gonna make it out of here
Alive
Will I
Will I
Will I
Survive?
