Jo Dee Messina - I'm A Survivor (Jo Dee Messina with Brad Johnson) lyrics

I was born a believer, biggest dreamer this world has ever seen

Ready to face most anything but learn that I was naive

Ran into things in life that I never planned

But that's made me who I am

I've had highs and lows and seen my share of ups and downs

There's been nights it seemed there wasn't a friend to be found

I've had to save myself from drowning in a sea of tears.

But I'm still here

('Cause) I'm, I'm a survivor

I won't let it get the best of me, I'll try my very best to be that strong

Oh, oh, oh, I, I'm a survivor

And I'll never give up, never lay down, never give in

I'll just keep moving on

Oh

I was taught that honesty was simply the only way

I've spoken honestly and had it blow up in my face

Sometimes I look around and I don't know what I see

But I gotta believe in God above and what he's made me

I'm, I'm a survivor

I won't let it get the best of me, I'll try my very best to be that strong

Oh, oh, oh, I, I'm a survivor

And I'll never give up, never lay down, never give in

I'll just keep moving on

No

I've witnessed pride and ego destroy the kindest of hearts

Seen how gread can take the best of friends and tear them apart

Every corner, every turn, every lesson I have learned

Has helped me find my way

I'm, I'm a survivor

I won't let it get the best of me, I'll try my very best to be that strong

Oh, oh, oh, I, I'm a survivor

And I'll never give up, never lay down, never give in

I'll never give up, never let out, never givin

Oh no I'll, I'll never give up, never let out, never give in

I'll just keep moving on

I'm a survivor

Oh yes I am
