Yeah, look.
We been through a lot, you know?
Just keep your head up.
Only way is up from here.
Let’s go.
I remember nights we didn't have a dime to spend
Staring at the ceiling wondering how it’s gonna end
Pressure on my shoulders felt like a heavy chain
Walking through the fire just to wash away the pain
They told me keep it pushing, never look behind your back
Even when the road is looking like a lonely track
We had the empty pockets but the heart was full of gold
Watching all the stories of the life that we was told
But we kept it moving, yeah we kept the vision clear
Even when the shadow of the doubt was drawing near
I see the transformation now the heavy clouds are gone
Look at how we made it through the darkness to the dawn.
We been through the struggle, through the grit and through the pain
Standing in the sunlight after years of heavy rain
Yeah, we climbed the mountain just to see the view today
Everything we wanted is finally coming our way
It’s the love that kept us tethered when the world was shaking loose
No more running from the ghosts, yeah we finally found the truce
Yeah, we made it, look at where we at right now
With the crown upon our head, yeah we finally took the vow.
Problems in the kitchen, problems outside on the street
Trying to keep the rhythm when you’re missing every beat
I know the feeling well, waking up with empty lungs
Listening to the bitterness from all the wicked tongues
But you was by my side, that’s the reason I’m a king
Even through the winters you was helping me to sing
We built a foundation out of rocks and out of sand
Now we look at empire that we built with our own hand
No more counting pennies, now we counting up the wins
Forgetting all the failures and the places that we’ve been
It’s a different atmosphere when you got someone to hold
Turning all the lead into the finest kind of gold.
We been through the struggle, through the grit and through the pain
Standing in the sunlight after years of heavy rain
Yeah, we climbed the mountain just to see the view today
Everything we wanted is finally coming our way
It’s the love that kept us tethered when the world was shaking loose
No more running from the ghosts, yeah we finally found the truce
Yeah, we made it, look at where we at right now
With the crown upon our head, yeah we finally took the vow.
Highs and the lows, we survived every test
Taking all the stress and we put it all to rest
Now we moving forward, steady on the path
Laughing at the reaper, yeah we having the last laugh
Steady on the path, yeah we keep it on the low
Watch the garden bloom, yeah watch the garden grow.
So keep your head up high when the pressure starts to climb
Everything is written, yeah it happens in the time
Don’t let them tell you different, you a fighter, you a star
Even if you’re bruised, baby, that’s just who you are
We rose from the concrete, petals on the rose
Looking at the horizon everywhere the spirit goes
We made it out the valley, standing on the peak
Found the strength inside us that we didn’t know we seek.
We been through the struggle, through the grit and through the pain
Standing in the sunlight after years of heavy rain
Yeah, we climbed the mountain just to see the view today
Everything we wanted is finally coming our way
It’s the love that kept us tethered when the world was shaking loose
No more running from the ghosts, yeah we finally found the truce
Yeah, we made it, look at where we at right now
With the crown upon our head, yeah we finally took the vow.
Yeah, we took the vow.
Keep climbing.
Never look back.
It’s all love now.
Just us against the world.
Yeah, we here.
