Survivor

Now that you are out of my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak without ya
But I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without ya
But I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without ya
I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without ya
Now I'm wiser
You thought that I'd be helpless without ya
But I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without ya
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without ya
Sold 9 million

I'm a survivor
I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gon' stop
I'm gonna work harder
I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I will survive

Thought I couldn't breath without ya
I'm inhalin'
You thought I couldn't see without ya
perfect vision
You thought I couldn't last without ya
but I'm lastin'
You thought that I would die without ya
but I'm livin'
Thought that I would fail without ya
but I'm on top
Thought that 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 gonna be here
