Now that you're outta 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 Though 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
CH: I'm a survivor I'm not gon' give up I'm not gon' stop I'm gon' work harder I'm a survivor I'm gonna make it I will survive Keep on surviving
(repeat chorus)
I'm a survivor
Yeah...
Hey-ey...
I'm gon' work harder
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' You thought that I would bail 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 years to come I'm still gon' be here
REPEAT CHORUS 4 times
I'm a survivor...
I'm wishing you the best Pray that you are blessed 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 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 Cuz my mamma taught me better than that
REPEAT CHORUS 2 times
Oh, oh, oh.....
Oh, oh, oh.....
REPEAT CHORUS
I'm a survivor Hey... Not gon' stop me now!
I'm gonna make it I will survive Keep on surviving Yeah....
