Lyrics

[Intro]

I hit the ground, I bite the dust

I count the cost, then get back up

[Verse 1]

Coffee gone cold by the kitchen sink

Bills in a pile and no time to think

One worn-out jacket, one bus to catch

A whole hard week strapped to my back

[Pre-Chorus]

But I know what these hands can do

I’ve built a way through every room

[Chorus]

I’m just trying to survive

Still got fire in my eyes

Every door can slam, every plan can break

I’ll be standing when the whole thing shakes

I’m just trying to survive

Taking back what’s still mine

No perfect road, no easy sign

But I’m not giving up this life

[Verse 2]

The landlord called while the kettle screamed

I patched my boots with a strip of tape and string

My sister said, “Come on, you’re stronger than this”

So I wrote her name on my clenched-up fist

[Pre-Chorus]

When the doubt comes pounding through

I make one more thing come true

[Chorus]

I’m just trying to survive

Still got fire in my eyes

Every door can slam, every plan can break

I’ll be standing when the whole thing shakes

I’m just trying to survive

Taking back what’s still mine

No perfect road, no easy sign

But I’m not giving up this life

[Bridge]

Let the bad news ring

Let the cold wind bite

I have carried worse

And I’m carrying tonight

One breath, one step

One more morning to find

I’m not asking for a miracle

I’m making mine

[Final Chorus]

I’m just trying to survive

Hear the heartbeat in the fight

Every door can slam, every plan can break

I’ll be standing when the whole thing shakes

I’m just trying to survive

With both hands on the line

No perfect road, no easy sign

But I’m not giving up this life

[Outro]

I hit the ground, I get back up

Still here, still tough
