Sometimes I get all caught up in these frustrations
Know my mama's good raising just disappears
I forget how far and dark and deep a careless word can fly
To hurt the ones I hold so dear
Sometimes between the ruts and the rain and the train wrecks and the paychecks
I get to feeling so damn small
And I forget that when it's all said and done
I wanna be that someone who steps up and spray paints on the wall
I was here
I was here
I'm alive
I did more than survive
Changed the life, touched the heart
Took a stand, left the mark
Made the most out of all of my years
You won't need to see my name carved on a headstone
To know I was here
Between the fancy jeans, the hot wings, and the big screens
You'd think that all I'd ever need was that I shot the moon
But I forget the most important things in this life
Hey yeah, just might not be things at all
So I'm gonna start to thank a few of my earthbound angels
For picking me up
Off the ground
I'm gonna stop worrying about a buck or two
And start thinking about what I fill up all them pews
The day they laid me down
I was here
I'm alive
I did more than survive
Changed the life, touched the heart
Took a stand, left the mark
Made the most out of all of my years
You won't need to see my name carved on a headstone
To know I was here
I was here
I'm alive
I did more than survive

Let's survive
Changed the life, touched the heart
Took a stand, left the mark
Made the most of my years
I was here
I was here
I'm alive
I did more than survive

Made the most out of all of my years
I'm alive



I did more than survive
you
