I'm A Survivor (Acoustic Version)

I was born three months too early

The doctor gave me thirty days

But I must've had my mamma's will

And God's amazing grace

So, I guess I'll keep on livin'

Even if this love's to die for

'Cause your bags are packed and I ain't crying

You're walking out and I'm not trying to change your mind

'Cause I was born to be

The baby girl without a chance

A victim of circumstance

The one who oughta give in

But she's just too hardheaded

A single mom who works two jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

I don't believe in self-pity

It only brings me down

May be the queen of broken hearts

But I won't hide behind the crown

And when the deck is stacked against me

I just play a different game

But my roots are planted in the past

And though my life is changing fast

Who I am is who I wanna be

The baby girl without a chance

A victim of circumstance

The one who oughta give up

But she's just too hardheaded

A single mom who works two jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

Oh, a single mom who works two jobs

Who loves her kids and never stops

With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter

I'm a survivor

Oh, I must've had my mamma's will

And God's amazing grace
