Lyrics
Understanding the meaning of struggle
Giving your whole life to a single passion
Which others may or may not
Consider obsolete
Like a rare flower
Seen by a few before it withers and dies(before it withers and dies)Seeing it all
All the way through the very end
Regardless
A full stop followed by an exclamation mark
Written in your flesh and blood
Getting knocked down every time
Getting knocked down every momentyou get up - until you love getting up
I know what you've been going through
I've been there too
God knows I've been pushing hard Pushing so damn hard -I've forgotten what the hell I'm even -Pushing for
Recognize it when it happens to you
Learn to recognize it and know what to do
Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing
Do it out of love
Do it out of love
Words cannot substitute
Losing everything
Losing your home
Losing your money
Your dignity
Losing your mind - your beliefs, ideals
Then and only then
When everything is gone
You no longer care
Your soul standing naked and bare
Stripped down to the truth
Then you'll find everything
On heaven and earth
On heaven and earth
On heaven and earth
The struggle is long
The struggle is hard
The struggle is beautiful
Writer(s): Keith (gb) Richards, Stephen K. Jordan
