I'm A Survivor Lyrics - Jo Dee Messina

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, 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 let out, 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 

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
