Survivor (F/Da Brat Remix)

(Brat)
Welcome to the wonderful world of Destiny's Child
I'm da Brat-tat-tat
My homeboy dead on the track
And we gon lay you flat on your back
wit the beat boom boom pat pat
like that, you heard me?
We comin' in this game like some survivors
And we leavin' this game like some survivors
So from now until we dead and gone,
We gon be some survivors
You heard me?
Beyonce, where you at?

(Destiny's Child)
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

(Chorus X2)
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'

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

(Chours X2)

Wishing 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
('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

(Chorus X2)

(Brat)
Now I done been through the storm and the rain
Climbed up the rough side and got tougher times
But I'll have stuff to shine pull out the pumps to protect mine
Survive in the game
Hate on me cuz you lame
But they'll never see your face or say your name
No more pain for me, no more misery
Cuz you history
I'ma hold on to what I got
Strap on my perfection
My own protection
My own direction
Wanna be the best at what I do
I'ma make it too
Stompin like a soldier in my big black boots
I keep 'em jumpin' jumpin'
Stayin funky funky for you
No matter who's that be that done walked out of your life
you don't need em don't need no healin'
As long as i'm still breathin'
Not leavin for no reason
Seen 'em come and go
Once rich they knock gold
No house no more, not even a condo
As long as I know how to love i'ma stay alive
With that gangsta style
They can't contain me cuz i'm wild
Not ashamed to stand out
In the rain sittin' on thangs
Crunked out, spittin' my game
No doubt i'ma get paid in a big way
Survivin'

(Chorus X2)

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?)
