Survivor Songtext
von Destiny’s Child

Now I let you 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

You thought I wouldn′t grow without you, now I'm wiser
Though 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

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'


Thought I couldn't breathe without you, I′m inhaling
You thought I couldn′t see without you, perfect vision
You thought I couldn't last without yo, 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 years to come I′m still gon′ be here

I'm a survivor, I′m not gon' give up (yeah)
I′m not gon' stop, I′m gon' work harder
I'm a survivor, I′m gonna make it (yeah)
I will survive, keep on survivin′

I'm a survivor I′m not gon' give up (yeah, yeah)
I′m not gon' stop, I′m gon' work harder (I'm not)
I′m a survivor, I′m gonna make it (work harder, yeah)
I will survive, keep on survivin' (I will survive, yeah, yeah)

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 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' dis you on the internet
'Cause my mama taught me better than that

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'm a survivor, yeah)
I will survive, keep on survivin′

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh-a, oh-a, oh-a, oh-a
Oh, oh, oh, ohh

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

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, and keep on survivin′

I'm a survivor, I′m not gon' give up
I′m not gon' stop, I′m gon' work harder (hey, don't stop me now)
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'

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'
