Survivor Lyrics

I'm a survivor
From the wars I fought inside
Through the fire
These scars remind me I'm alive
I raise my head high
To protect my heart tonight
We'll never let them get the best of us
When we divide ourselves with love
We divide ourselves with love

I try to run, try to hide, try to get away
From the things that I've done
But nothing's simple when your voice is the trigger
And you're deaf to the sound of the gun
All the words in the world couldn't help you unless
You come from the truth
'Cause it's hard to fight when your heart realizes
That the enemy he's fighting is you

I feel the darkness taking hold again
But I hold the light

I'm a survivor
From the wars I fought inside
Through the fire
These scars remind me I'm alive
I raise my head high
To protect my heart tonight
We'll never let that get the best of us
When we divide ourselves with love
We divide ourselves with love

There's no one else but yourself
That can help you
To turn it all around
So take a chance take a stack while you can
'Cause all we have is now

Don't let the darkness take hold again
You hold the light, Yeah

I'm a survivor
From the wars I fought inside
Through the fire
These scars remind me I'm alive
I raise my head high
To protect my heart tonight
We'll never let them get the best of us
When we divide ourselves with love
We divide ourselves with love

It's revolution
So raise your fist up
No surrender, no surrender
Feed your fire
Don't be silent
No surrender, no surrender

It's revolution
So raise your fist up
No surrender, no surrender
Feed your fire
Don't be silent
No surrender, no surrender

I'm a survivor
From the wars I fought inside
Through the fire
These scars remind me I'm alive
I raise my head high
To protect my heart tonight
We'll never let them get the best of us

I'm a survivor
From the wars I fought inside
Through the fire
These scars remind me I'm alive
I raise my head high
To protect my heart tonight
We'll never let them get them best of us
When we divide ourselves with love
