i'm a survivor - femme messiah lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve been bruised and i’ve been battered
been burned so many times
it took me all these years to understand
why love was just a stranger
i never really knew
so many came and left without goodbyes
i’d let my body become fodder for
the amus*m*nt of fools
the hurting was the biggest part of me
in the silence of denial
i had crushed my life in pain
but i’m not shame’s easy victim anymore

[chorus]
i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, my pain does not own mе
i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, i let love set my lifе free

[verse 2]
but honesty’s so costly
to overcome the fear
when so many hide their truth in shame and blame
they say that i deserve misfortune
as the wages of my sin
but for heaven’s sake, h*ll’s been already paid
all their army’s slings and arrows
have found their mark in me
but the first stone’s never thrown by those like me
it would be easy to get angry
to strike back, blow for blow
but i won’t waste my precious life on hate
[chorus]
i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, my pain does not own me
i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, i let love set my life free

[bridge]
but over and over, i’ve tried and i’ve cried
so helpless i wished i would die
’til i turned it over to a power much greater than me
and discovered a will to survive

[verse 3]
the best lesson’s in the learning
that my life depends on me
so i’ve chosen to own my power and be real
truly the gravest human evil is
to waste life on a lie
even scripture says, “the truth shall set you free”
i still get mocked for being different
the b*tt of all those jokes
but i’m not waiting for the last best laugh
no, i can’t change this wicked world
but i can change myself
’cause the only way i’ve found to live is love
[chorus]
’cause i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, my pain does not own me
i’m a survivor, i’m a survivor
i’m a survivor, i let love set my life free

[outro]
let love set you free, let love set you free
let love set you free, my pain does not own me
let love set you free, let love set you free
let love set you, love set you free
