[Verse 1] I woke up today with the same old weight Another sunrise, another fate The mirror shows a tired face But I'm still standing in this place I've been through storms, I've seen the rain I've felt the pleasure and the pain Some days I'm strong, some days I'm weak But I still get up, I still speak [Chorus] This is life — it's not a dream It's not as simple as it seems You fall, you rise, you learn to fight You lose your way, you find the light This is life — it's yours and mine Sometimes bitter, sometimes kind But in the end, you gotta see That life is what you make it be [Verse 2] I lost some friends, I made some new Some told the truth, some lied to you I've been betrayed, I've been loved I've been broken and pushed above The streets are cold, the nights are long But I still write my own song I don't need fame, I don't need gold I just need something to hold [Chorus] This is life — it's not a dream It's not as simple as it seems You fall, you rise, you learn to fight You lose your way, you find the light This is life — it's yours and mine Sometimes bitter, sometimes kind But in the end, you gotta see That life is what you make it be [Bridge] Maybe tomorrow will be better Maybe the sun will shine Maybe I'll finally find my way And leave the past behind But even if it stays the same I'll keep on walking through the flame Because I know who I am inside And I've got nothing left to hide [Verse 3] I'm not perfect, I'm not a star I'm just a man with battle scars I've made mistakes, I've made a mess But I've learned to forgive and bless The ones who stayed, the ones who left The ones who stole and the ones who gave Every moment, every breath Reminds me I'm not afraid of death [Chorus] This is life — it's not a dream It's not as simple as it seems You fall, you rise, you learn to fight You lose your way, you find the light This is life — it's yours and mine Sometimes bitter, sometimes kind But in the end, you gotta see That life is what you make it be [Outro] Yeah... Just life... Nothing more, nothing less... Just life...
