Vivienne Courtland - I Got a Right to Survive

What makes you think that I'd consider
Laying right down to die
Not when there are opportunities
Ahead of me and that's no lie

So I'll be changing the locks on the door
I won't be playing the fool that's for sure
And if there's one thing I've learned
It's that when you get burned
Don't go holding you're hand out for more

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

Seeing you standing in my doorway
Hanging your head down low
Did you really think I'd be so crazy
To take you back now that I know

Now there's a shield that I built round my heart
Won't let you shake the foundation apart
I trusted too many men
I said never again
Gonna stop it before it can start

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

Never again
Will I be treated so badly my baby

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive

I got a right to survive
I got a dream that's alive
I got the strength to get by
I got a right to survive
