You ever come out on top of a situation and wonder how you made it...
I believe they called those SURVIVORS
You SURVIVED
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
Tribulations and trials at hand
They always seem to overlap
Never knew they made 'em that bad
But somehow I had to make amends
With a loose ends
You gotta couple baby mamas and a few kids
And you ain't seen your baby daddy in a fеw years
I know you tried to tough it out but it hurts
And now you're wondеrin' how you gonna make it work
And you don't get a lot of love from church folk
Man, some of them a joke
So it's like what now, what next?
Rent due and ain't no money nowhere
I know it seems like nobody don't care
So you smoke and drink a little til it's no feel
It's still a cold world with no chill
But here's a little something you should
Tell yourself (tell yourself)
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
It's ok, yeah it's alright
You seen alot of dark days and some hard times (yeah)
Your strength lies within you... I know you can find it
Weariness endures only for a night (yeah)
But you won't stay down in due time you will rise
Talk use to be cheap, but now it's free of charge
You gotta walk a little different when you set apart
You try to love and you end up saying "no más"
Cause how you gonna mend a heart with a broke heart
Dealing with people sometimes... Man, you just can't take it
Apologies with no change is manipulation
So when you done all you can try to stand on it
Folks still make you want to put your hands on 'em
(Ay) Don't let your feelings get the best of you
Cause peace and God is realest thing I ever knew (True)
And never worry bout your bankroll
Cause God will take you some places money can't go
You already know
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) And in the end my friend, I survived
(I'm a SURVIVOR) Cause I prayed through
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I had a breakthrough
(I'm a SURVIVOR) I made it through
