Now that you′re 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 You thought that I′d be helpess 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
CHORUS: 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′
You thought I couldn′t breathe without you I′m inhaling You thought I couldn′t see without you perfect vision You thought I wouldn′t last without you but I′m lasting You thought that I would die without you but I′m living
You thought that I would fail without you but on top You thought that it′d 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
CHORUS
I′m wishin′ you the best, pray that you are blessed Bring 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 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
CHORUS
Oh.....oh....oh......
After all of the darkness and saddness, soon comes happiness If I surround myself with positive things, I′ll gain prosperity
There walked a lonely man, silent, mute, the only man not knowing how, not knowing why was he the sole survivor
why should he be alive, breathing still while others died and the only question why was he the sole survivor
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night
Wind blew across the sand He stood alone and he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud, began to run
In his tears he sees his face I am the end of the human race When I′m gone there′ll be no trace For I′m the sole survivor
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night
One night when years had passed The skies shook from a fiery blast And there a starship - safe at last! To come rescue this survivor
They beckoned him inside but only man, he would not ride instead he found a place to hide for he′s the sole survivor
Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted saviour, cried into the night
