Survivor
Beyoncé Feat. Kelly Rowland & Michelle Williams Lyrics

Now I let you out of my life
I am now better off without you in my life.

You thought that I'd be weak without you
You underestimated my strength and resilience.

But I'm stronger
In fact, I am now stronger without you.

You thought that I'd be broke without you
You thought I was financially dependent on you.

But I'm richer
But without you, I am now financially stable and even richer.

You thought that I'd be sad without you
You thought I was emotionally dependent on you.

I laugh harder
But without you, I am now happier and can laugh harder.

You thought I wouldn't grow without you
You thought you were the reason for my personal growth.

Now I'm wiser
But I have grown and become wiser without you.

Though that I'd be helpless without you
You thought I needed you to survive and be successful.

But I'm smarter
But I am now smarter and more independent without you.

You thought that I'd be stressed without you
You thought I couldn't handle stress without you.

But I'm chillin'
But without you, I am now relaxed and stress-free.

You thought I wouldn't sell without you
You thought I couldn't be successful without you.

Sold 9 million
But I have sold 9 million records without you.

I'm a survivor
I am resilient and can overcome obstacles.

I'm not gon give up
I won't give up when faced with adversity.

I'm not gon stop
I won't stop until I achieve my goals.

I'm gon work harder
I will work even harder to succeed.

I'm gonna make it
I will achieve my goals no matter what.

I will survive
I am strong enough to survive anything.

Keep on survivin'
I will continue to thrive and succeed in life.

Thought I couldn't breathe without you
You thought I couldn't function without you in my life.

I'm inhaling
But I am now breathing even better without you.

You thought I couldn't see without you
You thought I was blind without you.

Perfect vision
But my vision is now clearer without you.

You thought I couldn't last without you
You thought I couldn't survive without you.

But I'm lastin'
But I am now thriving without you.

You thought that I would die without you
You thought I was emotionally dependent on you.

But I'm livin'
But without you, I am now living my best life.

Thought that I would fail without you
You thought I would fail without your support.

But I'm on top
But without you, I am now successful and on top.

Thought it would be over by now
You thought I would have failed or given up by now.

But it won't stop
But I am still going strong and won't be stopped.

Thought that I would self destruct
You thought I couldn't handle the pressure and would self-destruct.

But I'm still here
But I am still standing strong and fighting for my success.

Even in my years to come
Even in the future, I will still succeed and thrive.

I'm still gon be here
I will still work hard and be successful in the future.

I'm wishin' you the best
Despite everything, I still wish you success and happiness in life.

Pray that you are blessed
I even pray for your blessings and success.

Much success, no stress, and lots of happiness
I hope you have all the success, happiness, and no stress in your life.

(I'm better than that)
I won't stoop to your level and talk badly about you.

I'm not gon blast you on the radio
I won't publicly shame you or air our drama to the world.

(I'm better than that)
I am better than spreading rumors or lies about you and your family.

I'm not gon lie on you and your family, yo
I won't spread lies or false stories about you and your loved ones.

(I'm better than that)
I am too mature to engage in hate and jealousy towards you.

I'm not gon hate on you in the magazines
I won't talk badly about you or bash you in the media.

('m better than that)
I won't compromise my values to talk bad about you or spread negativity.

You know I'm not gon dis you on the internet
I won't engage in cyberbullying or spreading hate online.

Cause my mama taught me better than that
I won't stoop to your level because I was raised better.

After all of the darkness and sadness
Despite all the negativity and sadness in life,

Soon comes happiness
Happiness and positivity will come.

If I surround my self with positive things
If I surround myself with positive people and things,

I'll gain prosperity
I will achieve prosperity and success in life.
