Survivor (#1's Edit)

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]

Now that you're out of my life I’m so much better

You thought that I'd be weak without you, but I'm stronger

You thought that I’d be broke without you, but I'm richer

You thought that I'd be sad without you, I laugh harder

Thought I wouldn't grow without you, now I'm wiser

Thought that I'd be helpless without you, but I'm smarter

You thought that I'd be stressed without you, but I’m chillin’

You thought I wouldn't sell without you, sold nine million

[Chorus: Destiny's Child]

I’m a survivor (What?)

I'm not gon' give up (What?)

I'm not gon’ stop (What?)

I'm gon' work harder (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?)

Keep on survivin' (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm not gon' give up (What?)

I'm not gon' stop (What?)

I'm gon' work harder (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?)

Keep on survivin' (What?)

[Verse 2: Beyoncé]

Thought I couldn't breathe without you, I'm inhalin'

You thought I couldn't see without you, perfect vision

You thought I couldn't last without you, but I'm lastin'

You thought that I would die without you, but I'm livin'

Thought that I would fail without you, but I'm on top

Thought it would be over by now, but it won't stop

Thought that I would self-destruct, but I'm still here

Even in my yеars to come, I'm still gon' be herе

[Chorus: Destiny's Child, Beyoncé]

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm not gon' give up (What?) (Hey)

I'm not gon' stop (What?)

I'm gon' work harder (What?) (Yeah)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?)

Keep on survivin' (What?) (Keep on survivin', yeah)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?) (I will survive, yeah)

Keep on survivin' (What?)

[Verse 3: Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Both]

Wishin' you the best, pray that you are blessed

Bring much success, no stress, and lots of happiness

I'm better than that

I'm not gon' blast you on the radio

I'm better than that

I'm not gon' lie on you and your family, yo

I'm better than that

I'm not gon' hate on you in the magazines

I'm better than that

I'm not gon' compromise my Christianity

I'm better than that

You know I'm not gon' diss you on the internet

'Cause my mama taught me better than that

[Chorus: Destiny's Child, Beyoncé]

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm not gon' give up (What?)

I'm not gon' stop (What?) (Hey)

I'm gon' work harder (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?) (I'm a survivor)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?)

Keep on survivin' (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm not gon' give up (What?)

I'm not gon' stop (What?)

I'm gon' work harder (What?)

I'm a survivor (What?) (I'm a survivor, yeah)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive (What?)

Keep on survivin' (What?)

[Bridge: Beyoncé, Michelle Williams]

Oh (Oh), oh (Oh)

Oh (Oh), oh (Oh)

Oh whoa (Oh whoa), oh whoa (Oh whoa)

Oh whoa (Oh whoa), oh whoa

After all of the darkness and sadness, soon comes happiness

If I surround myself with positive things, I'll gain prosperity
