I Know How It Feels To Survive

I've been afraid, been confused

Doubted everything I thought that I knew

But I've felt peace and I've been loved

Got back on my feet thanking God above

And I know how it feels to walk out of a valley

And how it feels to breathe the air that gives me life

I know the silence that comes with trusting and believing

And the darkness when the shadows hide the light

Yeah, I know how it feels to survive

I've been alone, felt betrayed

Didn't know if I could stand another day

But I've found joy and I've had faith

Known the strength that gets me through one more day

And I know how it feels to walk out of a valley

And how it feels to breathe the air that gives me life

I know the silence that comes with trusting and believing

And the darkness when the shadows hide the light

Yeah, I know how it feels to survive

Now I live with eyes wide open

And my heart is filled with gratitude

I know everything I have is only borrowed

And by the grace of God I know I'll make it through

'Cause I know how it feels to walk out of a valley

And how it feels to breathe the air that gives me life

I know the silence that comes with trusting and believing

And the darkness when the shadows hide the light

Yeah, I know how it feels to survive

I know how it feels to survive
