I remember popping pills just to numb the pain
Every day, every day
Waking up from blacking out livin' just to escape
All the shame and all this pain
But I thank God I ain't dead yet every day

Cuz life's got good times with a little bit of pain
Hard times but you see through the rain so
I'm takin' swimming lessons
So I can see the blessings
When the waves come crashing on down I can

Keep my head above water
Keep my head above water
For your sons and your daughters
Keep your head above water

Ya I seen hard times
But I'm still alright
Ya I seen some hard times
But I'm still alright
Ya we seen some hard times
But we still alright
Ya we seen some hard times
But we still alright

Keep my head above water
Keep my head above water
For your sons and your daughters
Keep your head above water

I remember popping pills just to numb the pain
