Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I had to pay my dues
I've hit all my rock bottoms
I fell right through the roof
I swim through heavy waters
And life can get difficult, I know, I know it
But one thing I know for sure is I'm still breathing, ay-yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm falling from the sky, but it don't mean nothing
Bring on the hell and high water
I went and lost my mind, but you know I'm still running
Running right through the fire
And life is but a ride, and the downs get ugly
I had to face some monsters
But I'm alive, and that counts for something
So here's to hell and high water
[Verse 3]
Hell and high water
[Verse 4]
The world tried to take me down
I've been thrown off my axis
It's chewed up and spit me out
My rose colored glasses blackened
Far from clean getaways, oh, I'll admit it (Mmh)
But I'm doing okay, the kid's still kicking, yeah-yeah
[Verse 5]
I'm falling from the sky, but it don't mean nothing
Bring on the hell and high water
I went and lost my mind, but you know I'm still running
Running right through the fire
And life is but a ride, and the downs get ugly
I had to face some monsters
But I'm alive, and that counts for something
So here's to hell and high water
[Verse 6]
So here's to hell and high water
Yeah-yeah-yeah
I'm falling from the sky, but it don't mean nothing
Falling from the sky, oh
I went and lost my mind, but you know I'm still running
Running right through the fire
[Verse 7]
Mmh
So here's to hell and high water
