Looking back on what I've done I wonder why I'm here today My wife and son, a constant reminder of what I could've thrown away I should've died countless times, alive because of the ones who stayed And everyday is another chance to do everything I can to earn what I have today And all the times you helped me stand When I was keeping myself down I'd look up to see a hand When I'd kept both of mine bound Looking back on countless yesterdays that should've been my last How did I ever make it though? Years, when I was my worst enemy My family stood right by my side and my friends stayed true How did I make it through? It's all because of you Older ones when I was young gave me shelter from the storm Tried to protect and keep me in check and now I'm walking strong As far as I can tell, this world's a living hell I'll give back what I'm shown and that's why I'll never walk alone Suddenly I see the man that I've become The scars I hide inside remind me where I'm from The debt I owe you all can never be repaid All I have is a path to get better everyday
