Survivor (Victor Calderone Club Mix)
Destiny's Child · Other Songs - Destiny's Child
I'm a survivor
Hey...
I'm gon' work harder
Hey...
I'm a survivor
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....
