Verse 1:
This life is a melting pot of misdemeanour,
the streets they harbour no sympathy and they're getting meaner.
It takes it's toll on you am I am I getting through now.
It takes it's toll on you.
You might have noticed I wear my feelings on my sleeves and, we're all so cold and alone we're almost scared to breathe and,
It takes it's toll on you am I am I getting through now.
It takes it's toll on you.Pre-Chorus:
No matter how much it hurts, don't let them disprove your worth. You just gotta remember that and you will get through (this)Chorus:
These bruises, they make me who I am, sticks and stones may break my bones but they've made me a better man.Verse 2:
Those who stand in your way or seek to undermine you, just keep your head up remember karma always finds you.
Just keep saying "Oh I'mma do what I do, Oh I'mma do what I do"
No-one in this life should make you wanna take your own.
Don't keep stressing n second guessing the path you're on
Just keep saying "Oh your words aren't getting through now, your words aren't getting through"Chorus:
These bruises, they make me who I am, sticks and stones may break my bones but they've made me a better man.
These bruises, they weren't a part of my plan, but time heals all get up if you fall and say this is who I am.Breakdown:
Through it all, no matter what the rise or fall I'll hold my head up high.
I am the product of my own damn life.Pre-Chorus:
No matter how much it hurts, don't let them disprove your worth. You just gotta remember that and you will get through (this)Chorus:
These bruises, they make me who I am, sticks and stones may break my bones but they've made me a better man.
These bruises, they weren't a part of my plan, but time heals all get up if you fall and say this is who I am.
