Wide as a river

Higher than the mountain

Tryin to get over, getting stronger

Everyday you got me

Barely room to breathe

In the life we lead

Every other day they find another way

To make you obsolete

Moving upward and onward

Every time they pull the string

But you try to give a little bit

You try to take a little bit

You try to make the most of it

And hold on

Wide as a river

Higher than the mountain

Tryin to get over, getting stronger

Everyday you got me

They all show themselves when shit gets serious, serious, so serious

Some get scared, some get confused

Some come prepared to use you if you let them

But people we gonna get it right, tomorrow if not tonight

Hey I know, and you know the way these things go

The sun dont always shine

Time aint always on your side but you keep surviving

Cause you try to give a little bit

You try to take a little bit

You try to make the most of it

And hold on

Wide as a river

Higher than the mountain

Tryin to get over, getting stronger

Everyday you got me
