lyrics

There was a time about a year ago I hit the bottom was at a low
It's in my mind my thoughts everyday all the mistakes I made

The wrong people the wrong crowd everyday getting pulled further down
It was the worst year of my life I don't know how I survived

Running with a sheep, playing with a wolf
Spending dollars in my sleep, I thought I'd reached defeat

Managed to get played, Get punk'd, Made to feel like a fool
Always coping the blame, Now look at the outcome

Sure I may have been young, I may have made bad choices
But I feel like I've won, I'm the one that's successful
Though I may have been young, I may have made bad choices
But I feel like I've won, I'm the one that's successful

I got far away from there from the life I couldn't bare
I conquered my fears, Now I'm fearless

I bounced right back, It was time to get out, It was time to get back on track, It was time to live

This is the lowdown

These words roll off my tongue, I've loved lost I'm not the defeated one I'm still here my footings still strong, I will survive.

I'm still here
I'm still strong
I've got the strength to carry on
I'm still here
I'm still strong
I've got the strength to move on
I'm still here
I'm still strong
I've got the strength to carry on
I'm still here
I'm still strong
I've got the strength to move on

I still survived, Life's back on track, I'm moving forward and I will never look back
