Camon, yeah! Ow! Here we go! I've seen everything a man could see I've seen the strong survive I've seen a young boy crying for food I've seen an old man die I've seen the system fall apart from the rules And all our Presidents lie I've seen the needle and the damage it's done The wreckage left behind My soul survives Forever doing time on a dead-end street My soul survives Blood like wine running down to my feet, yeah-yeah, yeah! I've seen the broken dreams and broken hearts I've seen the strong be cruel I've seen a man driven by success And break the golden rules I've seen 'em execute a man for love Blood running cold in the street I've seen the wars and the heartache it's done God bless our soul to keep My soul survives Forever doing time on a dead-end street My soul survives Blood like wine running down to my feet My soul survives Forever My soul survives Pick yourself up off your hands and knees I get so pissed off, it makes me wanna scream, yeah, yeah! Ooh-ooh, yeah! No, no, no! I've seen the gunshot heard around the world I've seen a young child crawling and fondle the earth I've seen everything a man could see I've seen heaven, hell, it makes no difference to me, yeah! My soul survives Forever doing time on a dead-end street My soul survives Blood like wine running down to my feet My soul survives Forever My soul survives Pick yourself up off your hands and knees, yeah-yeah, yeah! Bless my soul My soul survives Whoa, no, yeah! C'mon boys, yeah!
