Survivor

Now that you're outta my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak with 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 love harder

You thought I wouldn't grow without you
Now I'm wiser
You thought that I'd be helpless without you
But I'm smarter

You thought that I'd be stessed without you
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you
Sold nine million

I'm a surivor, I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gonna stop, no
I'm gonna work harder
I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it

I will survive, keep on survivin'
I'm a survivor
I'm not gonna stop now
I'm a survivor, I will survive oh

You thought that 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'

You thought that I would fall without you
But I'm on top
You thought it would be over by now
But it won't stop

You thought that I would self destruct
But I'm still here
Even in my years to come
I'm still gonna be here

I'm a surivor, I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gonna stop, no
I'm gonna work harder
I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it

I will survive, keep on survivin'
I'm a survivor
I'm not gonna stop now
I'm a survivor, I will survive oh

Wishin' you the best, pray that you are blessed
Much success, no stress, and lots of happiness
I'm better than that
I'm not gonna blast you on the radio

I'm better than that
I'm not gonna lie on you and your family
I'm better than that
I'm not gonna hate you in the magazines

I'm better than that
I'm not gonna compromise my spirituality
I'm better than that

You know I'm not gonna diss you on the internet
'Cause my momma thought me better
Better, better than that, uh

I'm a surivor, I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gonna stop, no
I'm gonna work harder
I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it

I will survive, keep on survivin'
I'm a survivor
I'm not gonna stop now
I'm a survivor, I will survive

Oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah-oh
Ah, ooh

After all of the darkness and sadness
Soon comes happiness
If I surround myself with positive peeps
I gain prosperity
