Song by Destiny's Child f/ Da Brat<br /><br>

[Da Brat]<br>

Welcome to the wonderful world of Destiny's Child<br>

I'm Da Brat-tat-tat, my homeboy Den on the track<br>

and we gon' lay you flat on yo' back<br>

when the beat-boom-boom-pat-pat like that, y'heard me?<br>

We comin in this game like some survivor's<br>

and we leavin this game like some survivor's<br>

So from now, until we dead and gone<br>

we gon' BE, some survivors, y'heard me?<br>

Beyonce, where you at? Uhh!<br>

<br>

[Beyonce]<br>

Now that you're outta my life, I'm so much better<br>

You thought that I'd be weak without ya, but I'm stronger<br>

You thought that I'd be broke without ya, but I'm richer<br>

You thought that I'd be sad without ya, I love harder<br>

You thought I wouldn't grow without ya, now I'm wiser!<br>

You thought that I'd be helpless without ya but I'm smarter<br>

You thought that I'd be stressed without ya, but I'm chillin<br>

You thought I wouldn't sell without ya, sold nine million<br>

<br>

[Chorus: Destiny's Child]<br>

I'ma survivor (WHAT), I'm not gon' give up (WHAT)<br>

I'm not gon' stop (WHAT), I'm gon' work harder (WHAT)<br>

I'ma survivor (WHAT), I'm gonna make it (WHAT)<br>

I will survive (WHAT), keep on survivin (WHAT)<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Beyonce]<br>

You thought I couldn't breathe without ya, I'm inhaling<br>

You thought I couldn't see without ya, perfect vision<br>

You thought I couldn't last without ya, but I'm lastin<br>

You thought that I would die without ya, but I'm livin<br>

Thought that I would fail without ya, but I'm on top<br>

Thought it would be over by now, but it won't stop<br>

Though that I would self-destruct, but I'm still here<br>

Even in my years to come, I'm still gon' be here!<br>

<br>

[Chorus - 2X]<br>

<br>

[Kelly]<br>

Wishin you the best, pray that you are blessed<br>

Much success, no stress, and lots of happiness<br>

I'm better than that! I'm not gon' blast you on the radio<br>

I'm better than that! I'm not gon' lie on you and your family<br>

I'm better than that! I'm not gon' hate on you in the magazines<br>

I'm better than that! I'm not gon' compromise my Christianity<br>

I'm better than that! You know I'm not gon' diss you on the internet<br>

cause my momma tought me better than that!<br>

<br>

[Chorus - 2X]<br>

<br>

[Da Brat over end of Chorus]<br>

Uhh, c'mon, uhh<br>

Now that I been through the storm and the rain<br>

Climbed up the ruff side and got tough at times<br>

but I remain, if I got the stuff to shine<br>

and without the pump, protect mine<br>

Survive in the game, hate on me cause you lame<br>

They don't ever see your face or say your name<br>

No more pain for me, no more misery, cause you history<br>

I'ma hold on to what I got<br>

Strap on to my perfection, strap on protection<br>

My own direction, born to be the best at what I do<br>

I'ma make it through, stompin like a soldier in my big black boots<br>

I keep 'em "Jumpin, Jumpin," stayin funky, funky for you<br>

No matter who's that man that walk out of your life<br>

You don't need 'em, don't be no heater<br>

Long as I'm still breathin, not leavin for no reason<br>

See them come and go, one switch, they not gold<br>

No house no mo', not even a condo<br>

As long as I know how to love, I'ma stay alive<br>

No need your game or style<br>

They can't tame me cause I'm wild, not ashamed of stayin down<br>

Can the rain sit, and 'em things chromed out, spit<br>

and in my game, no doubt, I'ma get paid in a big way, survivor!<br>

<br>

[Chorus - 4X]<br>
