Life's got a way of throwin' you down
Bills pile up and the car breaks down
You can curse the storm or you can stand in the rain
Learn to dance with the thunder and push through the pain
Take it on the chin let the hard times roll
Every bruise and scar shapes your soul
You might bend but you won't break
Stand tall move on and find what's at stake
Take it on the chin rise again
Mama worked two jobs to keep the lights on
Daddy said"Son you'll miss me when I'm gone"
But they taught me more than I could ever repay
Like how to keep fightin' when life gets in the way
Take it on the chin let the hard times roll
Every bruise and scar shapes your soul
You might bend but you won't break
Stand tall move on and find what's at stake
Take it on the chin rise again
It ain't about the punch that knocks you to your knees
It's the strength to rise and the will to believe
Scars are just the stories your heart wears with pride
Proof you've weathered storms and come out alive
It ain't about the punch that knocks you to your knees
It's the strength to rise and the will to believe
Scars are just the stories your heart wears with pride
Proof you've weathered storms and come out alive
Take it on the chin don't let the world win
Every loss is a lesson a place to begin
When the road feels long and the light grows dim
Remember to stand and take it on the chin
There's a soldier comin' home with tears in his eyes
And a mom who works late just to get by
We all take our hits but we all have a choice
To fight through the silence or raise up our voice
Take it on the chin hold your head high
Every fall's a chance to learn how to fly
You'll find your strength in the battles within
And grow every time you take it on the chin
So when the world gets rough and the punches sting
Remember the lessons that life's fights bring
There's a story in every scratch and grin
You'll be stronger for learnin' to take it on the chin
