Anyday now, it's what I kept telling myself On the last mile, on the road to somewhere But along the way I (got stopped by) All the wind and the rain and To my surprise And it shook my heart Blew my mind I've had to cry so many nights I've had to hold on for my life But all I can say now is that I survived
[Chorus:] I survived, I survived, I survived I survived, I survived, I survived Oh, Lord I had a lot on me Truth be told, it almost broke me But I'm so glad I survived, I survived, I survived now
Now hurt and pain were sometimes my company Separated from those, then I suppose I didn't have no guarantees But one thing, I knew for sure was I've had my share of ups and downs I made it even though Oh, it shook my heart Blew my mind I've had to cry so many nights I've had to hold on for my life But all I can say now is that I survived
[Chorus:] I survived, I survived, I survived I survived, I survived, I survived Oh, Lord I had a lot on me Truth be told, it almost broke me But I'm so glad I survived, I survived, I survived now
I know you heard this message before I wanna tell you once more It's alright I know the road your on might seem long But I encourage you to hold on, hold on You will survive
I do believe you will But all I can say now is that I survived
[Chorus:] I survived, I survived, I survived I survived, I survived, I survived Oh, Lord I had a lot on me Truth be told, it almost broke me But I'm so glad I survived, I survived, I survived now
When the weight of the world's All on your shoulder Just remember, remember, remember To keep your head up and survive
Oh, Lord I had a lot on me Truth be told, it almost broke me But I'm so glad I survived, I survived, I survived now
[Chorus:] I survived, I survived, I survived I survived, I survived, I survived Oh, Lord I had a lot on me Truth be told, it almost broke me But I'm so glad I survived, I survived, I survived now
