"Hard Dirt (String Version)" lyrics

Bring on the heat
Bring on the sun
Bring on the clouds hanging over me, saying I'm the only one
Ya, bring on the doubt
Tell me I'll never be good enough

Bring on the hurt
Bring on the past
Bring on the memories of the pieces that I'm never gonna get back
Fine, I'm looking up cause I believe in a bigger love

I grow better in hard dirt
I dig deeper when the river runs dry
Struggle makes me stronger
Keeps me reaching for the sky
You don't know what the rain's worth
Til it finds you out in the desert
Learnin' how my heart works
I grow better in hard dirt
(I grow better in hard hard dirt)

Dreams keep me alive
Even when I'm weak and even when I'm barely getting by
Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine
Someday I'm gonna rise, someday I'm gonna shine

I grow better in hard dirt
I dig deeper when the river runs dry
Struggle makes me stronger
Keeps me reaching for the sky
You don't know what the rain's worth
Til it finds you out in the desert
Learnin' how my heart works
I grow better in hard dirt
(I grow better in hard hard dirt)

Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine
Someday you're gonna see this heart of mine
Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine
Someday I'm gonna rise, someday I'm gonna shine

I grow better in hard dirt
I dig deeper when the river runs dry
Struggle makes me stronger
Keeps me reaching for the sky
You don't know what the rain's worth
Til it finds you out in the desert
Learnin' how my heart works
I grow better in hard dirt
(I grow better in hard hard dirt)

I grow better in hard dirt
I dig deeper when the river runs dry
Struggle makes me stronger
Keeps me reaching for the sky
You don't know what the rain's worth
Til it finds you out in the desert
Learnin' how my heart works
I grow better in hard dirt
(I grow better in hard hard dirt)
