life as I know it

Spring cleaning my room like unearthing these archives
Confronting who I was 8 years ago
Letters that made me cry, shit from my ex inside
These boxes, all they hide, have now been shown
Ugh

I don't recognise who she is, but I'm here for the ride (ride)
The only thing constant was change
And I turned out alright, alright, alright

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
That's what I was made to believe
When the going got rough, we just kept going
We did that, you and me

I've been through some shit (who am I kidding)
I'm sure we all did

Hell I was a kid, why was I so hard on myself?

But you know what they say, there can't be rainbows without rain
I tried, I showed up, I came. So hear me now when I say

It's always dark before the sunrise
But like the sun and tides, we'll rise (tides, we'll rise)
We laugh, we cry, things end up alright
I guess that's just life, that's life, that's life

When the going gets tough
The tough gets going, I learned at 23
When the going got rough
We just kept going
We did that, you and me

Coulda almost given up, I'm glad I didn't
There's so much more to see
If you've almost had enough, it's fine to show it
Take all the time you need

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
When the going gets tough, we just kept going

I feel like I need a choir up in here or something
You guys ready? Let's go
When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
That's what I was made to believe

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
We did that, you and me
When the going gets tough, you'll keep on going
Just know that I
I believe
