VERSE
It took some time, but today I'm gonna say how I feel
I know that I'm gonna make it
(That's right)
It took some time, but today I know what I feel is real
So don't you try to break it
Look at you, what you do
It really can't be true
Look at me, wannabe
What do you see?
CHORUS
I'm a survivor
'Cause I don't play no games
Just ask my driver
And don't you call me names
I'm a survivor
'Cause I can hold my breath
Just like a diver diving beyond
A treasure of gold
VERSE
It took some time, but today I'm gonna play it real cool
I know that I'm gonna make it
(Hell yeah!)
It took some time, but today I know that I write the rules
So don't you try to fake it
Look at you, what you do
You really won't get far
Look at me, what you see
Is a star
CHORUS
I'm a survivor
'Cause I don't play no games
Just ask my driver
And don't you call me names
I'm a survivor
'Cause I can hold my breath
Just like a diver searching for
A treasure of gold
I'm a survivor
'Cause I don't play no games
Just ask my driver
But don't you call me names
I'm a survivor
'Cause I can hold my breath
Just like a diver diving beyond
A treasure of gold

Hey, hey
CHORUS
I'm a survivor
'Cause I don't play no games
Just ask my driver
But don't you call me names

Just like a diver diving beyond
A treasure of gold
Ooh - na, na, na, na
I'm a survivor
Ooh - na, na, na, na
I'm a survivor
