Life moves fast but on a real you gotta get to grips,

I took the exits without knowing where the entrance is,

When mum went I can tell you now I went to bits,

Weighed up the options but it’s all about percentages,

There’s a certain percentage that are divided so we make it flip,

Pass down the mindset (yeah) and that’s how we raise our kids

There’s levels to this life that you're given you gotta know your worth

The piano knows the story even before I have to say a word.

Cos pain can push you backwards when you're fractured or it can make you search,

For something that is deeper than the surface when the roads get worse,

I've seen the dark but found the rhythm in the broken verse,

Now every bar’s another chapter every note's another verse,

See life's like a composition, every lesson's got a melody,

Every scar’s a reminder of the strength that lives in memory,

They told me time would heal it but it never healed it steadily,

You just learn to carry weight and turn the pain into energy,

But our lives ain’t perfect we just learn how to survive the storm,

When the silence hit the house and every night was far from warm,

We both lost family we was stressed our hearts been torn

But through the cracks of the struggle then you see something stronger's born,

It’s mad the way you see life goes, some say yeah it’s light work,

But see me I just jot down trying to find those right words,

To explain how I’m feeling sound appealing yeah it might first,

But in the end it all depends but see this bubble it might burst

Mum said just keep faith, then bros said you need to get paid,

Family wants my time but I’m still stuck in these split lanes,

In me head I got a pressure, and I can’t even begin to think straight,

Still I tell them good because I learnt how just to keep face

I’ve taxed life I need a rebate

They talk smoke but ain’t seen flame,

Past 10 we felt real pain

That's the past tense but we regained

Cold nights had to keep sane

They want shine but avoid the rain

They took losses but we overcame

But they weren’t there when the road changed

We’ve lost both but we OK

We’ve been broke but we found ways

When the lights off and the roles change

And we thinkin' back to the old days

All the stress that we both faced

Made us stronger in both ways

Sit down bro it’s OK,

I can see these dreams that we’ve both chased

There’s levels to this life that you're given you gotta know your worth,

Every lesson life was teaching's like a blessing in return

Now I’m standing on the lessons learnt that the struggle had to earn

So go on just be patient it’ll soon be your turn

But if you could see where we’ve been,

You'd realise that you should never give up

And we’ve come this far, so we can’t stop now

But why's that?

Cos we're Scousers and we don’t get knocked out
