Survivor Lyrics by JQ Sirls

Imitation is Suicide

2016

[Chorus: Chief Wakil]
They tell me that I wouldn't survive this long
But I'm still alive, Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
[Verse 1: JQ Sirls]
Uh
I've been beat-up and bruised
Used and abused
Soul worn down and tossed like old shoes
When my mind lost hope
And my body stopped breathing
My heart stepped in and it beat in believing
There was more to life than this season
I tread through the storm with wound that healing
Backpack packed with pain that's still bleeding
Death grip squeeze
I got to proceed
I live through constant struggles
But they won't be my end
Living fearfully
Not turning back where I began
Abused, beaten, broken
Spirit feels it dying
But as long as I'm living
I pick myself and get back up
I won't let my fear
Be my downfall
So I use it as fuel to make my doubt fall
I choose to stay alive
A champ in disguise
Like a legend on the rise
I will survive
[Hook: Chief Wakil]
They tell me that I wouldn't survive this long
But I'm still alive, Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
They tell me that I wouldn't survive this long
But I'm still alive, Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
[Chorus: Chief Wakil]
You thought you'd kill me
Only made me stronger
Surprised to survive a little longer
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
You thought you'd kill me
Only made me stronger
Surprised to survive a little longer
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
[Verse 2: Chief Wakil]
Another day
Another fear I fight with
The lie in my mind says I won't survive it
But I'm like Ali
A champ who I be
Tell the devil, "Better not catch you by me!"
But I gotta realize it
But you don't understand all the B.S. I get
Life is like a 90s bout vs Tyson
Any second I can go down
I might as well give up
Negative
Scratch that get up
Look up at the giant that you face right now
And hit him
POW
Even if he don't go down
Keep going even though it's been four rounds
Cause everything don't happen when you want it to
As long as you're alive
Strive for the W
And that's word from the W
Cause you're a winner still living through
The things that troubled you
[Hook: Chief Wakil]
[Chorus 2: Chief Wakil]
You thought you'd kill me
Only made me stronger
Surprised to survive a little longer
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
You thought you'd kill me
Only made me stronger
Surprised to survive a little longer
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
I'm a survivor, I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor, I'm a survivor
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
Say I'm a survivor, I'm a survivor
I'm a survivor, I'm a survivor
Uh-Oh
Uh-Oh
[Verse 3: JQ Sirls]
It's hard to weight the constant struggles
That you're dwelling in
Thin chance of living through it all
So you give in
And give up
You're one percent of faith you were leaning on
Weak from the storm because it last too long but
Keep walking forward
Because you're a champion
When they knock you down
You get up and you attack again
And keep grinding believing you'll see the sun again
Dodge till you find an in
TKO it for the win
There's a reason why you journey like this
You'll see it in the end
It'll all make sense
Kings and Queens will see legend in the midst
Who looked fear in the eye
And resist to enlist in the war on the side
Of folks who never try
Rather die and deny their chance to survive but
You gotta stay strong
You gotta carry through the pain
You'll arise
You'll survive it alive
[Hook]
[Chorus 2]
