Hard Times
Lyrics:
Hard times don’t mean it’s the end
They’re just the fire that helps you ascend
You’re still here. You’re still standing.
That’s strength, not damage
You’ve cried in silence, fought in the dark
Held yourself together when falling apart
You’ve carried more than anyone sees
But you still wake up and breathe
They don’t know the storms you’ve faced
Or how you’ve walked through fire with grace
You’ve been tested, stretched, torn wide
But you’ve never let the pain define your pride
And every scar, every tear
Proves you’ve made it through the fear
Don’t hide what you’ve survived
It’s the reason you're still alive
Hard times make strong hearts
You’re a fighter, that’s who you are
You bend, but never break
You rise no matter what’s at stake
This ain’t weakness, this is might
Finding your power in the fight
Hard times don’t steal your light
They sharpen it 'til you shine bright
You’ve been told “you’re too much” or “not enough”
But look at you, still choosing love
Still choosing to believe in change
Still holding on, even through the pain
No, you’re not broken, you’re built from grit
And your spirit? Can’t quit
So wear your story like a crown
Let the world see you won’t back down
Yeah, you’ve been bruised, you’ve been burned
But every lesson has been earned
You’re not who you used to be
You’re stronger now, and finally free
Hard times make strong hearts
You’re a fighter, that’s who you are
You bend, but never break
You rise no matter what’s at stake
This ain’t weakness, this is might
Finding your power in the fight
Hard times don’t steal your light
They sharpen it 'til you shine bright
So if today feels heavy and rough
Just know your presence is enough
You’ve walked through storms and still remain
That’s beauty born from pain
Hard times make strong hearts
You’re a warrior with battle marks
Still breathing, still here
Still pushing through the fear
This is your anthem, your spark
Your comeback from the dark
Hard times don’t get the last say
You do. You rise anyway.
You’re not alone, even now
You’ve made it this far, don’t doubt how
Hard times pass… but you?
You last.
