Survivor

I'm a survivor, yeah

Well, it's not about the industry

And it's not about the things that

I've been through like Nas and Jay-Z

See, I've seen a lot of things on the road to destruction

Addicted to this rap game, standing up and busting

This ain't a comeback, this ain't a second coming

We took a real loss when Dimebag stopped strumming

America's in trouble, the music is dying

They said some things about me, now the rap game is lying

I'm a survivor, I've been around the block

I'm a survivor, I'm coming out of the box

I'm a survivor, and yeah, you know I won't stop

I'm a survivor, I got this game on lock

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, you don't want it, you don't want it

I'm a survivor, you don't want it, you don't want it

From sold out stages to seconds from my life

To rolling with Madonna, to wrecking on my bike

There's some things I regret and some I don't

Some things I take back and some I won't

I went from style of the 90's to Dickies and shell toes

No matter what I'm wearing, I'm still in a hell hole

Escaped suicide from that gun on my dresser

I look into my daughter's eyes, that relieves the pressure

I'm a survivor, I've been around the block

I'm a survivor, I'm coming out of the box

I'm a survivor, and yeah, you know I won't stop

I'm a survivor, I got this game on lock

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, you don't want it, you don't want it

I'm a survivor, you don't want it, you don't want it

First they love you, then they hate you

They sign you, then they rape you

Treat you like a sport, pump fake you, then they shake you

I don't want your pity 'cause I'm far from the norm

I can take what you give, I done made it through the storm

I want the whole world to know me straight through my songs

Baby, when I die let the songs live on

'Cause I'm surviving, and now you know I won't stop

I'm surviving, I'm coming out of the box

I'm a survivor, I've been around the block

I'm a survivor, I'm coming out of the box

I'm a survivor, and yeah, you know I won't stop

I'm a survivor, I got this game on lock

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, what you got, what you got

I'm a survivor, you don't want it, you don't want it
