"been there" lyrics
(Life is hard)
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Feeling so damn grateful to be alive
I'm feeling so damn grateful to be alive
But it wasn't always like this all the time
I had to fight for it, had to fuckin climb for it
I'd lose an eye for it, maybe I had more to give
You have to be willing to die for the will to live
I need to let things go, just move on and forget
But that ain't who I am, I always end up worried sick
I'm tryna see the good in being me
There's always something more that I can be
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life gets hard
And you wanna give up
Cause you just don't think that you're strong enough
So you cry all night
And hope you don't wake up
I been there too, yeah I been there too
You're so fuckin' valuable, I hope you know it
Even though you may be young and don't know how you show it
Yeah, you will find your Thing- and that's a promise
Everybody has a purpose, I'm just being honest
When I was 18, I was lost more than you
Broke and dropping out of college, didn't know what to do
I was chasing a dream, and I worked hard for it too
If you believe in yourself, then you will find your way through
You don't have to be who they want you to
They can make it hard to see, but you know your truth
I know you can break free, yeah you know what to do
I'm not saying follow ME, I'm saying you do you!
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life gets hard
And you wanna give up
Cause you just don't think that you're strong enough
So you cry all night
And hope you don't wake up
I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Feeling so damn grateful to be alive
I'm feeling so damn grateful to be alive
But it wasn't always like this all the time
I had to fight for it, had to fuckin climb for it
I'd lose an eye for it, maybe I had more to give
You have to be willing to die for the will to live
I need to let things go, just move on and forget
But that ain't who I am, I always end up worried sick
I'm tryna see the good in being me
There's always something more that I can be
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life gets hard
And you wanna give up
Cause you just don't think that you're strong enough
So you cry all night
And hope you don't wake up
I been there too, yeah I been there too
You're so fuckin' valuable, I hope you know it
Even though you may be young and don't know how you show it
Yeah, you will find your Thing- and that's a promise

I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
Life is hard
Yeah, I know it's a mess
When you fuck shit up and you get depressed
Then you cry all night
Yeah I know that you're stressed
Cause I been there too, yeah I been there too, yeah
