Now that you're out of my life
I'm so much better
You thought that I'd be weak without you
But I'm stronger
You thought that I'd be broke without you
But I'm richer
You thought that I'd be sad without you
I laugh harder
You thought I wouldn't grow without you
Now I'm wiser
Though that I'd be helpless without you
But I'm smarter
You thought that I'd be stressed without you
But I'm chillin'
You thought I wouldn't sell without you
Sold nine million

I'm gon' work harder
I'm a survivor (what?)
I'm gon' make it (what?)
I will survive
Keep on survivin'

Thought it would be over by now
But it won't stop (stop)

Even in my years [bad word] I'm still gon' be here
