Hard Dirt

Bring on the heat, bring on the sun

Bring on the clouds hangin' over me sayin' I'm the only one

Yeah, bring on the doubt

Tell me I'll never be good enough

Bring on the hurt, bring on the past

Bring on the memories of the pieces that I'm never gonna get back

Fine, I'm lookin' up

'Cause I believe in a bigger love

I grow better in hard dirt

I dig deeper when the river runs dry

Struggle makes me stronger

Keeps me reachin' for the sky

You don't know what the rain's worth

Till it finds you out in the desert

Learnin' how my heart works

I grow better in hard dirt

I grow better in hard, hard dirt

Dreams keep me alive

Even when I'm weak and even when I'm barely gettin' by

Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine

Someday I'm gonna rise, some day I'm gonna shine

I grow better in hard dirt

I dig deeper when the river runs dry

Struggle makes me stronger

Keeps me reachin' for the sky

You don't know what the rain's worth

Till it finds you out in the desert

Learnin' how my heart works

I grow better in hard, hard, hard dirt

Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine

Someday you're gonna see this heart of mine

Blood, sweat and tears put the fruit on the vine

Someday I'm gonna rise, some day I'm gonna shine

(I grow better in hard dirt)

(I dig deeper when the river runs dry)

(Struggle makes me stronger) Oh

(Reachin' for the sky) Whoa, someday, oh

(You don't know what the rain's worth)

(Finds you out in the desert)

(Learnin' how my heart works)

(I grow better in hard dirt)

I grow better in hard dirt

I dig deeper when the river runs dry

Struggle makes me stronger

Keeps me reachin' for the sky

You don't know what the rain's worth

Till it finds you out in the desert

Learnin' how my heart works

I grow better in hard dirt
