| I’ve been picked upon
|
| I’ve been pushed around
|
| I’ve been lifted up just to be knocked down
|
| I grew up abused, so let’s watch as it all plays out
|
| I have made some friends
|
| That are now enemies
|
| Bad luck comes in waves, mostly 2s and 3s
|
| I can’t count on my lucky stars, they’re nowhere to be seen
|
| I guess it’s just not meant to be
|
| So when I make it out alive
|
| Yeah, I am gonna be the one to
|
| Tell you I’m alright
|
| I knew I would be, I knew I’d be all along
|
| When I make it out alive
|
| Yeah I am gonna be the one to
|
| Tell you I survived
|
| I knew I’d do it, 'cause I knew it all along
|
| I’ll keep my feet on the ground
|
| You keep your head in the clouds
|
| I’ll take the punches as they come to knock me
|
| Out of sight
|
| I must be out of my mind
|
| Who knew growing is just like doing time
|
| Well I’ve done them both and I think I turned out just fine
|
| Just fine, just fine, just fine
|
| But what would you know of this life I’ve been given
|
| My parents they left me so broken
|
| And I’m trying my hardest to fix myself
|
| But I can’t call on you, 'cause that’s a cry for help
|
| And I won’t
|
| So when I make it out alive
|
| Yeah, I am gonna be the one to
|
| Tell you I’m alright
|
| I knew I would be, I knew I’d be all along
|
| When I make it out alive
|
| Yeah I am gonna be the one to
|
| Tell you I survived
|
| I knew I’d do it, 'cause I knew it all along
|
| Oh yeah, yeah you know what they say
|
| If you cannot win the battle, live to fight another day
|
| If you’ve never been hurt then you’ve never known pain
|
| If you’ve never felt love then you’ll never know hate
|
| I felt it all, the pain and the pressure
|
| Building inside me, more than I can measure
|
| You think that you’re smarter
|
| You think that you’re clever
|
| You think that you’re better
|
| Whatever, whatever
|
| So when I make it out alive
|
| Yeah, I am gonna be the one to
|
| Tell you I’m alright
|
| I knew I would be, I knew I’d be all along
