Finally, finally, you see
life was not meant to be easy
Stop counting the ways in which the world forgot to do you a favor
You'll be far more proud of all the times you got up
when your ribs were crushed
Your face shoved in the mud
Everything stripped away
And you kept on going anyway
You have to hit rock bottom before you can make sense of your climb
You can only kiss the feet of giants
when you have tasted the defeat's sobering red wine.
