[Intro]
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor (I'm a survivor, yeah)
I'm a survivor

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Well, it's not about the industry
And it's not about the things I've been through like Nas or Jay-Z
See, I've seen a lot of things on the road to destruction
Addicted to this rap game, standin' up and bustin'
This ain't a comeback (No), this ain't a second comin' (Uh-uh)
We took a real loss when Dimebag stopped strummin'
America's in trouble, the music is dying
They said some things about me, now the rap game is lying

[Hook]
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 yet 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!
You don't want it, you don't want it!
I'm a survivor
You don't want it, you don't want it!
You don't want it!
[Verse 2]
From sold out stages, to seconds from my life
To rollin' with Madonna, to wreckin' 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 90s to Dickies and Shell Toes
No matter what I'm wearing, I'm still in the hell hole
Escaped suicide from that gun on my dresser
I look into my daughter's eyes, that relieves the pressure

[Hook]
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 yet 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!
You don't want it, you don't want it!
I'm a survivor
You don't want it, you don't want it!
You don't want it!

[Verse 3]
First they love you, then they hate you
Then sign you, then they rape you
Treat you like a sport, pump fake you then they shake you
And I don't want your pity 'cause I'm far from the norm
I can take what you give, I've done made 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 survivin', and now you know I won't stop
I'm survivin', I'm coming out of the box!
[Hook]
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 yet 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!
You don't want it, you don't want it!
I'm a survivor
You don't want it, you don't want it!
You don't want it!
