I've been to the edge and I've seen the end
And I know what it's like to give up when you can't see ahead
And I've been to the bottom, been scraped by the ground
And I've come face to face with reality I've found
It's a cold, hard, world
Nothing's for free except advice on the street
But you'll have to wait and see
'Cause I know that it's coming for me
But I'm still standing here on my own two feet
And I guess I'll have to remind myself just to breath
'Cause there ain't nothing standing in between myself and me
Telling me this life I've lived ain't for the reckless and the weak
I've looked in the mirror at everything but myself
'Cause everything else seemed more important than what's in front of me
Why can't I see myself through my own eyes
And know that everything will turn out alright
So why must I go through struggle and strife
Just to find out everything will turn out right
We'll have to wait and see
'Cause I know that it's coming for me
But I'm still standing here on my own two feet
And I guess I'll have to remind myself just to breath
'Cause there ain't nothing standing in between myself and me
Telling me this life I've lived ain't for the reckless and the weak
But I'm still standing here on my own two feet
And I guess I'll have to remind myself just to breath
'Cause there ain't nothing standing in between myself and me
Telling me this life I've lived ain't for the reckless and the weak
