Lyrics

Jesus raised me, good weed saved me
I was on the long road, but I made it back again
Took forever to get better
To give my heart the right medicine
Now when I'm in the dark
I know how to find the spark
I learned the hard way
I learned the hard way
I've been through it, hopeless, stupid
Lost myself in someone
I found myself back home the hard way
Had to do it the hard way
Took some climbing to find perspective
Got it somewhere on the way back down, down, down
I'm still searching, taking lessons
Through the hurt and what's gonna happen now, now, now, now
Now when I'm in the dark
I know how to find the spark
I learned the hard way
I learned the hard way
I've been through it, hopeless, stupid
Lost myself in someone
I found myself back home the hard way
Had to do it the hard way
Learned to let myself down
Learned to say a hard thing
Had to learn to let go
Had to let a heart break
You can only do so much
You can always do the right thing
I learned the hard way
I learned the hard way
I've been through it, hopeless, stupid
Lost myself in someone
I found myself back home the hard way
Had to do it the hard way
Had to do it the hard way
Had to do it the hard way
Been a couple of hard days
Had to do it the hard way
