[Verse 1] Boots full of mud Hands full of cracks I learned the hard way I don't look back Salt on my knuckles Smoke on my shirt I take the hit Then I get to work [Pre-Chorus] You can break glass You can break me I bend, I bend But I don't leave One more step One more scar I keep the fire Right under the tar [Chorus] Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) I keep on going Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) When the wind is blowing Hit me hard I hold my ground Grit in my teeth I don't back down [Verse 2] Fresh coat of rain Old dents in the door I know that look I've seen it before Thin little promises Fold like paper I build from the wreck And I build it greater [Pre-Chorus] You can break glass You can break me I bend, I bend But I don't leave One more step One more scar I keep the fire Right under the tar [Chorus] Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) I keep on going Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) When the wind is blowing Hit me hard I hold my ground Grit in my teeth I don't back down [Bridge] Let the white chips fly Let the floor shake loose I was made in the hard With a stubborn truth If I lose my voice I'll still make sound Through the dust and dark I stay around [Final Chorus] Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) I keep on going Grit in my teeth (grit in my teeth) When the wind is blowing Hit me hard I hold my ground Grit in my teeth I don't back down
