"survivor (2018)" lyrics

See we all been through it
Weight on your shoulders and can't move it
Just keep a firm grip on your soul and you'll never lose it
'Cause money doesn't equal happiness
Do not confuse it
And life is ruthless
Get to walkin' if the shoe fits
'Cause everybody's got a memory lane
But as you're walkin' down it
All you can remember is pain
The moments that afterwards life was never the same
Its almost like somethin' in your body chemically changed
Now you think the worlds against you, I get you
Trust me I have been through
Times I thought I'd never see an end to
When they said I couldn't
I just showed 'em what I can do
Channeled all my hunger
Now I'm buyin' out the menu
Just tryna drop a couple gems for the crowd
Gather a positive energy and spread it around
And as them vibrations join they develop a sound
So what you say when life is gettin' you down is

I don't wanna cry no more (Na-na-na-na)
I don't wanna let life let me down
Yeah, I am a survivor (I am a survivor)
Yeah, I am a survivor (I am a survivor)
You don't wanna cry no more (No-no-no-no)
You don't wanna let life let you down
Yeah, you are a survivor (You are a survivor)
Yeah, you are a survivor (You are a survivor)
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

We all get knocked down when it's hard to fight
We all hit that ground
That's the cost of flight
Lookin' for the sunshine through the darkest nights
When there ain't a single star in sight
Chisel history in stone with a carving knife
Leave my mark up on this planet
Author of my own life
So when nothin' goes right
Buckle up and hold tight
And I show the world that I am a survivor

But what if Hannah Baker only had a homie
Someone to help her through it
There's so many people lonely
So as much as you're survivin' don't forget about each other
Keep eachothers backs covered
And be good to one another
So, look into the mirror and tell yourself you're a beast
And that no one can defeat you or put you on a leash
Take a seat, get composure when that water runnin' deep
Deep breath, we'll be fine, you'll see

I don't wanna cry no more (Na-na-na-na)
I don't wanna let life let me down
Yeah, I am a survivor (I am a survivor)
Yeah, I am a survivor (I am a survivor)
You don't wanna cry no more (No-no-no-no)
You don't wanna let life let you down
Yeah, you are a survivor (You are a survivor)
Yeah, you are a survivor
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

I promise you I will survive
Cross my heart and hope to die
Hold my head and wipe my eyes
Never let them kill my vibe
Promise me you will survive
Cross your heart and hope to die
Hold your head and wipe your eyes
Yeah-yeah
