[Intro] [Verse 1] You thought I'd fold, you thought I'd fall Thought I'd disappear after the curtain call So here I am, take a good look I got my shoes on, didn't look back You said I'd never make it on my own Well guess who's laughing from their own front porch Your doubt didn't follow me past that door I built a life you couldn't touch or torch [Verse 2] I used to shrink myself to fit your rooms Now I take up every inch I want I used to wait for someone else to save me Turns out I had it in me the whole time Funny how it happens, you get stronger Right around the time they stop asking permission I don't owe nobody an apology For making decisions that are mine alone [Pre Chorus] So go on and act surprised now Go on and wonder how I'm this good I didn't need a single one of you I did exactly what I said I would [Chorus 1] I'm still breathing, I'm still moving Better than I ever was before You can talk about me all you want to I don't hear you, I'm not keeping score I got joy you can't take from me I got a life nobody handed me I will survive, I will survive And baby, I'm doing more than fine [Verse 3] My mama always said the last laugh's sweetest Said don't waste your breath on folks who leave Now I'm sitting pretty, drinking coffee While you're still stuck wondering how I did this with such ease [Bridge] This is me now, this is how far I've come Every hard word landed different, made me sharper than before Every doubt you gave me, I used it to get further Your no just taught me how to say yes on my own [Final Chorus] I'm still breathing, I'm still moving Better than I ever was before You can talk about me all you want to I don't hear you, I'm not keeping score I got joy you can't take from me I got a life nobody handed me I will survive, I will survive And baby, I'm doing more than fine [Outro] I'm still moving (I'm still moving) Watch me walk right out that door I'm still moving (I'm still moving) Better than I was before I survived I survived I survived
