I've been in the fight swinging left Dodging right, get no rest Life been trying to knock me to my knees I been laying down in my bed Spinning round in my head Crying out for God to rescue me With every step I'm falling back two or three But I never let it get the best of me Or keep me down Cause I know it makes me stronger Stars don't shine without the darkness Sun don't rise without the shade We can't smile without the sadness We can't heal without the pain There is salty and sweet Mountains high valleys deep Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days It's hard when it keeps falling But I'm grateful for the rain Every day like Hitting the red lights Back in the deep Trying to see when it's the dark of night Feel the pressure and it Pulls me in Here we go again But I keep trying cause When the weight is heavy and it's hard to breathe When the waves are steady crashing down on me Something lifts me up And nothing's ever gonna stop me Stars don't shine without the darkness Sun don't rise without the shade We can't smile without the sadness We can't heal without the pain There is salty and sweet Mountains high valleys deep Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days It's hard when it keeps falling But I'm grateful for the rain If I didn't have the chaos wouldn't know the peace If I didn't feel the hurt I wouldn't know relief It's true that I can't have this joy without the grief I guess that all these ups and downs are good for me If I didn't have the chaos wouldn't know the peace If I didn't feel the hurt I wouldn't know relief It's true that I can't have this joy without the grief Without the grief Stars don't shine without the darkness Sun don't rise without the shade We can't smile without the sadness We can't heal without the pain There is salty and sweet Mountains high valleys deep Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days It's hard when it keeps falling But I'm grateful for the rain It's hard when it keeps falling But I'm grateful for the rain
