Survivor (#1's Edit) - Destiny's Child

Written by：Beyoncé Knowles/Anthony Dent/Mathew Knowles

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

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 9 million

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

Thought I couldn't breathe without

I'm inhaling

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'

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 what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon' work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon' work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

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 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

'Cause my mama taught me better than that

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon' work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what

Keep on survivin' what

After of all of the darkness and sadness

Soon comes happiness

If I surround my self with positive things

I'll gain prosperity

I'm a survivor what

I'm not gon' give up what

I'm not gon' stop what

I'm gon' work harder what

I'm a survivor what

I'm gonna make it what

I will survive what
