[Verse 1]
I don't know what you've been told
But this ain't no easy road
Everything that shines ain't gold
I think I need to let you know

I might trip and I might fall
Before you walk you got to crawl
You can't break me down at all
Here I am I'm standing tall

[PreChorus]
Everything I've got is 'cause of me, myself, and I (me, myself, and I)
Never gonna stop 'cause I know that I'm gonna survive (I'm gonna survive)

[Chorus]
What I want, I've got it (I just wanna thank my self)
Sun shine down on me (I just wanna thank my self)
Thought I didn't do it, but I did it when they stood in my way (I just wanna thank my self)
Now at last but sure not least (I just gotta thank my self)

[Verse 2]
Never know if you don't try
I keep on doing what I like
I do what keeps my soul alive
Bein' happy ain't a crime
And when the world is out for me
And nothing goes my way
I roll with it so naturally
'cause it's a brand new day

[PreChorus]
Everything I've got is 'cause of me, myself, and I (me, myself, and I)
Never gonna stop 'cause I know that I'm gonna survive (I'm gonna survive)

[Chorus]
What I want, I've got it (I just wanna thank my self)
Sun shine down on me (I just wanna thank my self)
Thought I didn't do it, but I did it when they stood in my way (I just wanna thank my self)
Now at last but sure not least (I just gotta thank my self)

[Bridge]
Oo na na na [x8]

[Chorus]
What I want, I've got it (I just wanna thank my self)
Sun shine down on me (I just wanna thank my self)
Thought I didn't do it, but I did it when they stood in my way (I just wanna thank my self)
Now at last but sure not least (I just gotta thank my self)
