Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 survivin'
[Verse 2]
Now that you're out of my life, I'm so much better
Thought 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
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 stressed without you, but I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you, sold 9 million
[Verse 3]
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 survivin'
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 survivin'
[Verse 4]
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'
You thought that I would die without you, but I'm livin'
You thought that I would fail 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 gon' be here
[Verse 5]
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 survivin'
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 survivin'
[Verse 6]
Wishin' you the best
Pray that you are blessed
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 not gonna hate on you in the magazines
I'm not gonna compromise my Christianity
You know I'm not gon' diss you on the internet
'Cause my mama taught me better than that
[Verse 7]
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 survivin'
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 survivin'
[Verse 8]
After all of the darkness and sadness
Soon comes happiness
If I surround myself with positive things
I'll gain prosperity
[Verse 9]
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 survivin'
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 survivin'
[Verse 10]
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
