Lyrics
Intro
(yeah) Walkin' these cracked streets alone
Uke strums soft, wind in my bones
Verse
Slammin' doors at dawn, Dad's ghost in the chair
Mom's fire and fury fillin' the air
No dinner on the table, just empty cans
Learnin' to dodge the weight of their hands
School's a battlefield, kids laughin' my name
Pockets full of nothin', playin' the game
Bikes with flat tires, dreams on the mend
Patchin' up the pieces they tried to bend
Pre-chorus
But the sun still rises, cuts through the gray
I got my two feet, gonna find my way
Chorus
Growin' up rough, yeah it's tearin' me down
Bad blood in the house, wearin' this crown
But it ain't the worst, no it ain't the end
Seen eyes hollower, bones breakin' to bend
We push through the mud, we push through the fight
Yeah, we make it somehow, into the light
Push through, push through
Yeah, we make it somehow
Verse
Friends crashin' out early, lost in the haze
I dodge that bullet, countin' my days
Whispers of worse in the corners I know
Kids with no roof, carryin' heavier loads
Parents who vanish, or swing fists like storms
Leavin' marks deeper than these faded forms
But I got a spark, flickerin' alive
Turnin' the pain to fuel for the drive
Pre-chorus
And the road keeps callin', rough as it is
I ain't backin' down, this is what it is
Chorus
Growin' up rough, yeah it's tearin' me down
Bad blood in the house, wearin' this crown
But it ain't the worst, no it ain't the end
Seen eyes hollower, bones breakin' to bend
We push through the mud, we push through the fight
Yeah, we make it somehow, into the light
Push through, push through
Yeah, we make it somehow
(we make it somehow)
Bridge
Electric rips in, drums pound the ache
Uke holds the memory, but I won't break
(oh yeah) One step, two steps, risin' above
Turnin' the bitter to somethin' I love
Chorus
Growin' up rough, yeah it's tearin' me down
Bad blood in the house, wearin' this crown
But it ain't the worst, no it ain't the end
Seen eyes hollower, bones breakin' to bend
We push through the mud, we push through the fight
Yeah, we make it somehow, into the light
Push through, push through
Yeah, we make it somehow
Push through, push through
(yeah) We make it somehow
Outro
Drums fade slow, uke strums low
Yeah, we make it... somehow
