Geto Boys
Only the Strong Survive
[Verse 1: Ghetto MC]
Only the strong can survive where the fuck I'm from
The rough end of the city Houston
Time to show you where I stand, in the flat lands
A gangster hard motherfucker with a gun in my hand
This is not a fairy tale, this is reality
There's no Texas ? n***as as violent as G
Every 5th Ward day, someone gets fucked up
If it wasn't for us hospitals would go bankrupt
Funeral homes would get closed down
Cus there wouldn't be a body to put in the ground
Only the strong can survive, I quote it cus I wrote it
To the 5th Ward streets til I die I'm devoted
In this quest for survival in my goddamn hood
Must be a fast runner or fight real good
The circle won't stand or either sit for that shit
If we lose a fight, we'll bust a cap real quick
Bitch faster than you can beg for your life
You wouldn't need an ambulance you would need life flight
When you get there it will be too late
That's when your family and friends will be attending your wake
You can call it the nickel or the bloody five
But to live here you must be strong to survive

[Bushwick Bill]
Yeah this Bushwick Bill tellin you size ain't shit. Coolin with Drunk D, Black, Bar-None, Ghetto MC. 5th Ward hard, snapping necks and putting n***as in check, heh heh...can you dig? Only the strong can survive, motherfucka
[Verse 2: Drunk D]
Only the strong can survive, Ghetto you can respect
If a n***a fuck with me I'll break his goddamn neck
Motherfuckers ask me why I write these kinda lyrics
Response cocksucker, so your ass can hear it
A down ass n***a don't have no problem with this cussin
He know exactly why Drunk D is fussin
Young brother from the ? damn straight I'm hip
Bitches ? ? ? ? ? from their lip it's a trip
A lot of brothas scared of jail, boy jail ain't shit
Be down for ya ? and knock ya out a bitch
Ya pride is on the line don't let a n***a give you choice
If he big, ? strong with a deep-ass voice
You better grab something and try to shake his ass
First fight that you win it might just be your last
Can you handle, can you manage, can you stay alive?
Like I said before, only the strong can survive

[Scarface]
You know what mang? You know Scarface is in the motherfuckin' place mang. And there's a lot of motherfuckers talking shit about the TMTs. And we ain't having it. SO FUCK YOU MANG!

[Verse 3]
[GMC] Caution means you better beware, cus I'll fire ya ass up
[D] Like a goddamn weed square
[GMC] Punk approached like he wanted to fight
The stupid ass mistake is gonna cost him his life
Now the future for the ho look very dim, before I shoot his ass
[D] Ghetto pistol-whup him
[GMC] I hit him with my gun, he did not fall
So I shot his brains all up against the wall
Police thought the homicide was related to drugs
[D] They had to pull his dental file to find out who he was
[GMC] If this ? was a ? we would all be drunk
I show no pity for the punks that I had to stomp
All you hoes disrespecting what I represent
You better get off my dick before you get pregnant
I'm not a bullshitter, I have no time to jive
[D] But we here to let you know only the strong can survive
[Willie D]
