Love your life, yeah that's how you live.
It's yours to take but learn when to give.
Give others hope and don't you give in,
Cause the night must end 'fore the morning begins.
Just do you, stay real and true,
To all that's inside, the nails and screws,
That hold you together, and through stormy weather,
You and I, let's do this together now.
Life is your own, and you reap what you sew.
The people will come and your friends they may go.
Stop doubting yourself cause there's one thing I know,
It's that flowers need rain before they can grow.
And I know that feeling, like "Why do I matter?"
My words could be sweeter than cookie dough batter,
And she still wouldn't love me...
I hate that I know that just I can't have her.
It may be a battle, you may have to fight,
And I know you lay there and cry every night.
I know the pain that you're feeling inside,
Is this rain that I feel or can God really cry?
If life is really a test, then someone gave me the wrong answer sheet.
Oh well, cause I might just cheat.
Cause we've all been through it, I write all this music,
To tell you that pain is a tool, so I use it,
To fight all my demons, the monsters I deal with,
I love you, was that brave or stupid?
But It's all okay, I'll be just fine.
The morning will come and the sun will rise,
Realize that pain is just part of life,
So take it slowly, one day at a time.
You're not broken, you've got a past.
I can see your potential right through your mask.
This world is yours, don't need to ask,
It's ready so take it and never look back.
I see all your scars and all that you've been through,
But keep your head up and remember that I'm right behind you.
(CHORUS)
Each breath is a gift that's worth more than Gold
Your life is your story that's yet to be told.
Be who you are, be ruthless and bold
You wouldn't know warm if you weren't ever cold..
You're stronger in heart than you'll ever know.
Lift up your glass, let's make a toast.
To the ones who took life and made it their own,
The people who fought and who and made themselves known.
(CHORUS)
But, Listen,
You're gonna take a few hits.
And it's gonna be hard,
But I promise it's gonna be worth it.
I know that life, ain't always easy,
It's hard enough just to find some meaning,
You put on a mask just to hide what you're feeling
Cause the darkness within, is just too revealing.
Whatever you feel, you're never alone.
There's someone out there who knows that you know.
Someone whose pain, comes so close to home,
We're all the same flesh, blood and bone.
You say you doubt me? I did that first.
Nothing's harder than finding self-worth.
When you feel like your heart, is just gonna burst,
And that death would be better than life on this earth.
Just take a moment, look to the sky.
Look to the heavens above for some sign,
But what you desires already inside,
You just have to take it, this is your life!
It's not easy, but uh,
But that's why it's gonna feel so damn good.
So at the end of the day.
Keep one thing in mind:
Life's not about what you've got in your bank
It's about all the times and memories you make,
With people who also feel hurt and feel pain.
Don't ever forget that we all bleed the same.
The world can be cruel and the people can too,
But some of those people are honest and true,
And if you think that the world is so bad,
Maybe it's time to try being glad.
Lifes what you make it, whatever you want,
Don't focus so much on the things that you've got.
Look at the horizon, then look beyond.
Today I'm right here, but tomorrow I'm gone.
I wish I could take all your pain and confusion,
I'd lift it right off of your shoulders, and use it,
If I could use all these words just to prove it,
I'm right behind you, and I ain't moving.
(CHORUS)
Each breath is a gift that's worth more than Gold
Your life is your story that's yet to be told.
Be who you are, be ruthless and bold
You wouldn't know warm if you weren't ever cold..
You're stronger in heart than you'll ever know.
Lift up your glass, let's make a toast.
To the ones who took life and made it their own,
The people who fought and who and made themselves known.
(CHORUS)
To you, my friend, whoever, wherever you are.
I know that this life, seems like it hasn't been easy so far.
And tomorrow, we'll do this all again.
And I promise, I'll be right behind you,
Right up till the end.
