[Verse 1]
You got to be strong
Even though you feel weak
You got to carry on
Though you wanna give in
And when you get lost
Don't forget where you began
You're a survivor
From a long line of the same
Mmm-mm
Mmm-mm
[Verse 2]
There's no need to rush anything
Don't try to be a machine
Because you might really succeed
And you are a human being
Go outside
And move how your body was made
Like a survivor
From a long line of the same
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Pick up their gift
Held up in helix and spit
At the end of all this
You can't just cave in and quit
No, you got to be strong
Even though you feel weak
You got to carry on
Though you wanna give in
You can't
'Cause you're a survivor
See how you're alive through it all
[Outro]
It's what your every fiber is for
Just to wake up and ride with the sun
Like a survivor
Mmm
