Kicking Back at the Ground Songtext
von Breaking Rust

Mm-mm-mm

Woke up this morning, sky was grey as my luck
Coffee was cold and my old truck got stuck
Bills on the table, dreams on hope
World keeps swinging, tryna take my soul
But I ain′t one for laying down
You can't drown a man who′s already found

That life's gonna kick you, trip you, break you down
Spin you in circles, leave you on the ground
But I keep on fightin', that′s what I do
Dust on my boots and I push on through

′Cause the sun don't shine if you don′t get up
And the climb don't end ′til you had enough
Yeah, life's gonna kick you to the ground
But I′m kicking back at the ground


Friends come and go like the wind through the pines
Love will lift you up, then steal your mind
But I got scars that sing when the night gets cold
They tell the story of a heart turned bold
The blues don't break me, they keep me strong
You can't lose a fight if you play it along, yeah

Yeah, life′s gonna kick you, trip you, break you down
Spin you in circles, leave you on the ground
But I keep on fightin′, that's what I do
Dust on my boots and I push on through

′Cause the sun don't shine if you don′t get up
And the climb don't end ′til you had enough
Yeah, life's gonna kick you too to the ground
But I'm kicking back at the ground

Every fall′s just a lesson in disguise
Every tear′s a spark that lights their eyes
Ain't no glow without a little pain
Ain′t no rainbow without the rain

Gonna kick you, trip you, break you down
But I ain't done fightin′, not this round
I'll keep on climbing, it′s all I know
Through the fire, the mud, and the cold wind blow


'Cause the sun don't shine if you don′t get up
And I still got a little bit of tough in my cup
Yeah, life′s gonna kick you to the ground
But I'm kicking back at the ground

So when you see me fall, don′t count me out
I'm a stone with a heart full of shouts
Yeah, life knocks me down, but here′s the sound
Of me kicking back at the ground

Mm
Mm-mm
Mm
