I've had my ups and downs But never fell this far behind Got to thank my family They helped me through the hardest of times Nothing I can do, even if i wanted to Seems like I've had no luck I feel beaten black and blue I'll never give up, I'll never give in I'll climb my way back to the top again Never give up, never give in I'll find my way back, I'll be back on top again I tried the best I can I guess I wasn't good enough Feels like I'm falling But I am still not giving up Back on my feet again It's just what I have to do I guess that's life I've been beaten black and blue I'll never give up, I'll never give in I'll climb my way back to the top again Never give up, never give in I'll find my way back, I'll be back on top again Black and blue! Black and blue! Black and blue! I've been scarred, I've been bruised I've been beaten up by life I've learned the hard way I know how to survive! Black and blue! Black and blue! Black and blue!
