SURVIVOR (Lyrics)

© John Cologon 2019

There have always been bad things around
But you don't have to let them defeat you
All that pain's like a deafening sound
But I know that you won't let it beat you
Because hidden deep inside
Is a strength no-one can see
And it's more than suffering pride
It's the person you can be
The one you're growing into

'Cause you're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor through and through
You're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor, you know it's true

It's so hard when things don't go your way
And you cling to your feeble excuses
Is it better when friends come and say
You're a victim of unfair abuses?
You know hidden deep inside
Is a strength no-one can see
If your heart can open wide
And embrace reality
Becoming who you're meant to

'Cause you're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor through and through
You're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor, you know it's true

It's not hard to take on victimhood
You can do it without even trying
But somehow I have doubts that you would
'Cause you've never been much good at lying
You know hidden deep inside
Is a strength no-one can see
It's a light you often hide
Yet it's struggling to set free
The life you're growing into

'Cause you're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor through and through
You're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor, you know it's true
Yeah you're a survivor not a victim
You're a survivor through and through
You're a survivor not a victim
So what you gonna do?
