🎶🎶🎶

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights, thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong...
And I learned how to get along...

And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your face

I should've changed that stupid lock,
I should've made you leave your key,
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

Oh, now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now, cause you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
You think I'd crumble?
You think I'd lay down and die?

I'm a survivor
I'm not gon' give up
I'm not gon' starve
I'm gon' work harder

I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I will survive
Keep on survivin'

It took all the strength, I had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart

And I spent oh so many nights,
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry,
But now I hold my head up high

I'm a survivor
I'm not gon' give up
I'm not gon' starve
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 you,
But I'm lasting!
You thought that I would die without you,
But I'm living!

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
I'm not gon' starve
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' starve
I'm gon' work harder

I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I will survive
Keep on survivin'

Oh no, not I
I will survive!
Oh, as long as I know how to love,
I know I'll stay alive

And I've got all my life to live,
And I've got all my love to give,
And I will survive
I will survive!

I'm a survivor
I'm not gon' give up
I'm not gon' starve
I'm gon' work harder

I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I will survive
Keep on survivin'

I will survive!!
