Die to Survive - Hip Hop Trap

(yeah) Another bill comes in the mail today

Another family trying to find a way

Working overtime just to stay afloat

While the rich keep sailing on a different boat

The shelves are full but the pockets are bare

People losing hope, breathing polluted air

Dreams get traded for a second job

While the headlines say everything's solved

We're running in circles,

chasing the lie

Holding on through another night

The cost of living goes up as people die to survive

Trying to keep their hopes and their dreams alive Every dollar earned

feels farther away And tomorrow looks harder than yesterday The cost of

living goes up as people die to survive

We're holding on with everything inside But the human spirit refuses to

die When the world keeps raising the price of it all

Single mothers counting every dime

Retirees watching savings disappear with time

Young men and women carrying debt like chains Wondering if they'll ever

break away

Neighbors helping neighbors make it through

Sharing what they have when there's little to lose In the struggle

there's a truth we find

The strongest hearts are forged in the hard times

We're battered by storms,

but still we fight

Searching for hope beyond the night

The cost of living goes up as people die to survive

Trying to keep their hopes and their dreams alive Every dollar earned

feels farther away And tomorrow looks harder than yesterday The cost of

living goes up as people die to survive

We're holding on with everything inside But the human spirit refuses to

die When the world keeps raising the price of it all

Maybe one day we'll remember again

That people matter more than profits win

A nation's strength isn't measured by gold But by how it cares

for the young and old No matter how heavy the burden becomes

We'll keep standing together as one (standing together

as one)

The cost of living goes up as people die to survive

Yet there's a fire they can never deprive

Through every struggle, through every scar

We keep reaching for who we are The cost of living goes

up as people die to survive

But we won't let our humanity die We'll keep fighting,

standing tall through it all When the world keeps raising the price

of it all

The cost of living rises day by day But hope is one

thing they can't take away (can't take away)
