"Tough" lyrics

Tough
Is hitting that gravel falling off your bike
Then you saddle back up for one more try, yeah
Tough
Is what they tell you to be when you scrape them knees
So you learn to be
Tough
Hold 'em back, never let 'em fall down
But son, let me tell you now

God made tears to fall like rain
Heal your heart and ease your pain
Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside
You can bottle 'em up as best as you can
But don't think that's what makes a man
Being strong's sure got its place and time
But tough don't mean you can't cry

Tough
Is playing guitar with your papaw
For the very last time that you never saw coming
Tough
Is waking up thinkin' that you get to do it again
But the news you get is
Tough
When Daddy does his best to say
What I can see running down his face

God made tears to fall like rain
Heal your heart and ease your pain
Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside
You can bottle 'em up as best as you can
But don't think that's what makes a man
Being strong's sure got its place and time
But tough don't mean you can't cry

Sometimes life's hard to accept
But even Jesus wept

God made tears to fall like rain
Heal your heart and ease your pain
Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside
You can bottle 'em up as best as you can
But don't think that's what makes a man
Being strong's sure got its place and time
Yeah, being strong's sure got its place and time
But tough don't mean you can't cry
