[Verse 1] I started small With a pocket full of aches Bare feet on the floor And a hundred chances waiting I kept the receipts From the days I almost fell Creased-up in my hand Like a map I knew too well [Pre-Chorus] And look at me now Still standing in the frame I’ve got scars like stories I’m proud to say my name [Chorus] What a ride, what a ride Look at all I lived What a ride, what a ride So much more to give (What a ride, what a ride) I built this story line by line [Verse 2] I’ve lost a few things Left them under better skies Some were hard goodbye Some were just a door swung wide I’ve seen hard years turn To gold in the rearview Learned the kind of faith That only comes from going through [Pre-Chorus] And look at me now With my heart still in the game I’ve got dust on my hands And light inside my name [Chorus] What a ride, what a ride Look at all I lived What a ride, what a ride So much more to give (What a ride, what a ride) I built this story line by line [Bridge] If I had to do it all again I’d still walk through the fire Still take the long way home Still climb a little higher Every bend Every bruise Every break Made room for you [Chorus] What a ride, what a ride Look at all I lived What a ride, what a ride So much more to give (What a ride, what a ride) I built this story line by line [Outro] Line by line I became this life Line by line I made it mine
