Survivor

[Verse 1]

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

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

Thought I would be broke without you, but I'm richer

You thought I would be sad without you, I laugh harder

You thought I wouldn't grow without you, but I'm wiser

Thought I would be helpless without you, but I'm smarter

Thought that I would be stressed without you, but I'm chillin'

Thought I wouldn't sell without you, sold nine million

[Chorus]

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

Gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

Gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

[Verse 2]

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

Thought I couldn't see without you, perfect vision

Thought I couldn't last without you, but I'm lastin'

Thought that I would die without you, but I'm livin'

You thought that I would fail without you, but I'm on top (Top)

Thought it would be over by now, it won't stop (Stop)

You thought I would self destruct, but I'm still here

Even in my years to come, still gonna be here

[Chorus]

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

I'm gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

Gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

[Bridge]

I'm wishing you the best

Pray that you are blessed

Bring much success, no stress, and lots of happiness

I'm not gonna blast you on the radio

I'm not gonna lie to you and your family, oh

(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 Christianity

(I'm better than that)

You know I'm not gonna diss you on the Internet

(I'm better than that)

My mama taught me better than that

[Chorus]

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

Gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

Gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop

I'm gonna work harder

I'm a survivor (What?)

I'm gonna make it (What?)

I will survive

Keep on survivin'

I'm a survivor (What?)

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

I'm not gon' stop
